 I was on the bench, I felt like when I was on the bench they were, they were making plays and so I had sat back down and as soon as I got the pick I was, me and Todd were jumping up hugging so I was just happy we were able to see the win. By the time I got to him I was trying to talk but I was so tired running about 90 yards to get to him. I just told him great play and he's my brother man I was, I was just happy, just excited. This game is playing out like it's expected to end like that but is it playing out like the thought of which kind of physical affair where you know they kind of show us a fight to win it? Yeah I mean defense show, show fight, you know they never gave up, being resilient, making plays and doing what they need to do to be able to help us win the game and you know just probably those guys man because they work hard day in and day out throughout the week and you know just excited to see it all come together. Is this street kind of what I'm talking about? Yeah this, you know we just got to play competitive football and you know put all together you know on Sundays and you know no matter you know how it goes you know how we win I mean it's a win when we go to the win column so you know just enjoy this three wins in a row and it's hard to win in this league and I'm happy that we were able to turn things around these past three weeks. So it seemed like Washington was in it because they made their share of big plays you got yours when Nick came down with that ball that set you guys up and go ahead and touch down how big that you often stuck with it and found a big chunk play. Yeah that was huge, Nick getting that catch and making the big play and a big part of the game so yeah that was huge and we need more of that. You guys need this. It's just great as us, of course it emphasizes it every week and you know we want to get the ball to end zone so. You mentioned that, what is it? We're a team. I mean it takes all of us. I mean we're not playing, you know what I'm saying, point out individual. You know it takes all of us so we understand that. I mean that's just don't do that. It's collectively. You need a buy to have a good of the head in a moment. Have a good body week. Yeah I mean be good to let guys rest up and get their body back on them and then get some guys back hopefully you know enjoy the body week get away from the game and when the time to come back it back to work. The two screen sequence worked out pretty nicely with you and Don Trell. Yeah that was a lot of fun just happy we were able to make a play. I was able to catch a screen and get some yards and Don Trell got his way to touchdown so anytime we ever do that we're always happy. I mean that's always the focus and the focus on getting better and improving. No matter what the outcome is and continue to do that each and every day and I'm sure you guys get away a little bit but be ready to work and get better when we come back. How's my confidence though? I mean playing? I mean I'm gonna be me each and every Sunday so I mean me. Well man it's just you gotta find a way to win and we know how to do that and that's how sometimes it's gonna be in this league. Defend every blade of grass and guys came up huge at the end. I mean I think other than just to see what a defense was but not letting them score not when they need a touchdown. I mean I'm confident in what we've done down there in the past. That could change based on if they need a field goal. Paul I think that that's something that we talk long and hard about is if a field goal beats you I think that's a different story. But a touchdown we've just had too many stops down there and done too many good things down there. Is that what you're asking? Yeah. Sure. The players you know I mean the players and just being confident in what we're doing. You know I thought there was some you know some good calls down there they you know had them you know I think they were expecting one thing and clearly got another and you know almost had the interception there earlier with Christian. Well I think it's just getting back there into spots and you know something that we've been trying to work on and a vision and a break and you know we need more ball production more ball disruption. That's something that we're going to have to have on defense and this is a good place to start with you know with the game on the line. What do you have guys like? Yeah I mean those guys are great for us. It's just going to have to be better you know everything's going to have to be better. Those guys have been fantastic leaders for us productive players. I was proud of the way that Danico kept his composure you know and then Jeffrey obviously coming back and you know he apologized for whatever he did on the quarterback and then you know coming back and being able to help us. Well I think it's just you know we took it pretty good against Buffalo on a Monday night came back on a short week and you know we found a way to win three games in a row so I think that this bye week is going to be a great opportunity for us to catch our breath and get some guys healthy. We got some guys that play a lot of football for us just because they have to and you know we need to take care of them. Yeah I mean I was certainly not at what anybody wanted or expected or what we think that is standard you know that you got to take care of your quarterback only bad things are going to happen when he's getting pressured and hit. Their ability to stay in it hitting a big place what was kind of the messaging there in terms of staying in it to tackle and stay on top that was what the message was all week was you know not give up X plays and tackle and when they missed tackles led to points and X plays led to points. Same thing everybody else is thinking. Well I thought the protection there was outstanding I thought Ryan you know wanted to go to chag they came off Ryan climbed the pocket which was which was great and Nick Westbrook did what we you know need to do more of is go up and make a play on the football when it's in the air go attack it and make a play. I mean I don't you know we can't have them be under duress you know it's like you know we got to block them so we get some of these plays off you know we only take some shots I guys asked me about throwing shots so we got to figure out what we're going to do to take care of the quarterback and continue to do those things you know and the penalties hurt us you know the penalties you know we had some runs there that were you know really great runs and X play runs and the penalties hurt us there well I think that you know I mean we've talked about this before that there's banked reps you know reps that they've been running for April and then being able to put some scheme plays in and everybody understand them for that particular week so we need to do better before we get down there you know making sure that we're consistent in our ability to get down there to continue to produce red zone drives where we have you know scored touchdowns that's been the difference How much does it have to do? Yeah well I mean it helps you know I mean it helps but there you know some of these defenses there's guys there free and you know we did a nice job of covering them up and Derek was able to score you know I thought that their short yardage run was good I wish we could have been able to capitalize on that unfortunately that we couldn't but you know Derek you know caught the ball great I mean really nice catch on the screen fantastic you know catch to go and frame it and catch it out in front of his eyes turn and get up and produce you know change some field position and then Don Trill scored on the next play was Nate Nate was inactive he wasn't one of the eight though Lyman was it easy to call where you were going next or did those guys have a close practice week? No Dylan was prepared to go in there I mean we practiced that you know the red zone all week now they've moved me around a little bit you know from Mike to money and stuff you know so it was I was prepared for the play just the thing is you know we never panicked you know they made some plays you know we never played we know what type of players we got on the side of the ball so you know you never panicked just make a play everyone but this was my first one the year end you know just playing in DC and you know I saw some people out here and it was just a different type of feeling before the game you know I don't know I just felt good about today it was a tough one you know but we put it through it was just a relief man because the whole drive they was making plays we kept everything in front they got it balanced you know there was a penalty they got them close to the goal line the thing is you know we got to that point I'm smiling that I'm like you know this is what we built for this is what you dream of don't panic you know somebody make a play and we walk off the field you know it just ended up being me but it was a team effort it's hard to win in this league we gonna enjoy this you know it was a good one going into the bout week get some guys back you know healthy and just keep this thing going yeah I mean it's been good I mean you know some players you know get in let's experience some plays happen but the thing we teach on that defense you know just prepare like you're a starter you know the whole week just whenever your name is called just take advantage of the opportunity you know both sides of the ball those guys aren't going to make plays just how you respond to it it's so essential man like I said we practice a lot the red zone every week that was just an emphasis making sure as far as backside and the defense that we were playing I don't want to say too much just to be patient just let everything come to you early in the game me personally I got hit with some play because I was too aggressive you know just making sure somebody make a play you know get off the field yeah I was still out there I didn't leave the field I think I probably want to leave the field you know just showing love to the fans that was out there that came along with yeah I just think that just says a lot about us man hard nose you know blue collar and just never panic you know that just showed there you know over we can bring up a lot of games where it just came down to that last even this year you know it comes down to that last drive somebody has to make a play you know so offense you know made plays they got us some points on the board you know we just had you know finished it off you know we did it was a big deal man it was kind of flat in there you know going in so we was like the whole game like create our own energy you know especially on the field so you know we just feeding off each other you know trying to create that energy you know a whole game somebody make a play you know we it's flat let's get it back up you know just just constantly you know just keeping us our swagger you know in the game we believe in each other we're going to keep battling and find a way to win you know I think that's what has been proven in the last few weeks is we believe in each other we're going to keep battling no matter what's happened and ultimately find a way to win how big was the connection with Nick what did you see yeah it was huge play you know great play by Nick you know really kept us in the game there you know he had a post route the corner fell off late to Chick who was running a sail route I saw him late so I had to pull the ball back saw us one on one down the field safety had good leverage to take away the post but I knew it was one on one so it was basically just a trust throw giving my guy a chance to go up and make a make a play on the football and Nick made a great adjustment to the football and made the play for us yeah I just kept believing you know I think I've seen over the years here our defense is just going to keep battling and defend every bladed grass you know so I kept the faith and believed they were going to make a play didn't know what was going to happen who was going to make the play but you know David came up huge there at the end you know I couldn't really see I saw the back go out run the angle route coming back inside but then kind of went behind the old line I couldn't see anything and then all of a sudden David's running with the football so I don't know exactly how it all played out but great play by David obviously reading it out and you know coming up huge for us yeah no doubt it grows you know just believing in each other that we're going to find a way to win and winning is contagious you know so you get that taste you get that feeling you get that locker room after the game those are things that you never forget is celebrating in those locker rooms after wins and as the team gets a taste of that and starts feeling that it really brings you together as a team and that belief only grows so you know got some good things going you need to clean up some things but got some good things going and I just want to keep the foot on the gas keep going comes from the guys in the locker room you know I think you know this is not an easy game right it's a tough game and we got tough guys in the locker room you know I think it the message is sent from coach but it's guys in the locker room that believe in each other and don't lose faith you know keeps to the process of trying to get better each and every week you know we had a long season in front of us and we still do so we'll have to keep improving week in and week out you know we're just scratching the surface so you know it really comes down to the guys in the locker room believing in each other staying hungry each and every week going on to the practice field trying to take advantage of the reps that we get out there working together as a team and just steady improvement throughout the season yeah no doubt they did a good job of getting guys in the back field we knew that coming in that they're going to have a good front and they did a good job of getting pressure so I definitely have some things to clean up there but our guys kept battling you know on the one I had to pull back and get the ball down the field I had time to be able to do that pull the ball back and launch it so there's some good things in there too guys protected at certain times protected well so you know have some things to clean up but overall you know proud of the way our guys battled and we found a way to win three more touches it's huge we talk about it a lot you know we've been solid in the red zone since I've been here so it's something that we believe in we put a lot of effort and influence in I mean influence not a bad word intention we put a lot of intention into it something that we work throughout the spring, throughout training camp and obviously you know coming in each and every week trying to get a good a good plan together and then go out and execute it so we don't want to get down there these games are going to be tight and inevitably in the NFL most games come down to one score game so if you take a look at it you're going to score when you get down the red zone so there's a lot of belief that we're going to get down there we're going to score yeah back to back screens you know close to Todd for making those calls two great calls to get the ball they're getting a lot of pressure at that point early in the game so getting the ball behind that rush trying to take advantage of that speed rush and the guys made plays you know Derek obviously with the big run and then the second one there Don Trill had to get it on him quickly just because of the pressure there he was able to make a good catch and then obviously turn it up and score
