 Just as an offense as a team, I know you guys still have games to play or game to play at this point. But I mean, how proud are you of the efforts that this particular team's been able to put together to win the first AFC South title since 2008? Yeah, it's really cool. There's a lot of really great things that this team has accomplished and there's a lot of things to be proud about. One of those things in Coach Raible talked about is that no matter what, we're going to constantly fight. It doesn't matter what the situation is, guys don't back down from it. But it's definitely, like you said, there's more football to play, but it's a cool moment right now. Dennis, you came in at kind of the tail end of the doom and gloom days for this franchise. How have you seen things grow and change culturally and otherwise since you got here? Yeah, it's really neat talking to Taylor Alon about it because he talked about his early years and his career. The two and 14 and three and 13 years and the mentality that has now taken over the building in the locker room. I'm really proud to be a part of something like this to kind of get this franchise going in the right direction and hopefully continue its success. Jesus, success, excuse me. How much does Raible play into all of that? Yeah, I mean, I think he does a fantastic job of getting us ready and kind of being that example of what we should aim to be as a team. He does a great job connecting with all the players because he's done it all. He's been pretty much every single type of role you can find on a football team. And so I think he brings a great perspective to us and he's able to be in this. I think guys appreciate that in respect to that. Yeah, Dennis, back to back, leading Russia, you're one of eight offensive lines to ever block for a 2000 yard back. I see you starting to smile. What does that mean to you? Like, how much of an accomplishment is that for you? Yeah, it's, you know, I keep saying it's a really cool moment. It's a really cool thing. That's something you, when you're older and you're done playing and you're able to talk to your kids or anything like that. That's something you can look back and be like, I did that. Hey, Dennis. What's up, bud? How are you, buddy? I just wanted to pop in here and tell you congratulations. I'm so happy for you. I love you to death. No one deserves this more than you, buddy. I'm out of here. Later. Go ahead, where am I at? You were talking about how, what it meant to you and how it's something that, you know, you could tell your grandkids. Yeah, and then it's in, you know, Quiz and I talked about a locker room about how like that's something we can always meet up on and celebrate. And, you know, there's instantly, there's this bond that we're all in this together and we all accomplish this together. So it's definitely, I mean, it's going to be pretty impossible to forget. And you mentioned earlier, just the mindset and the approach that has taken over that building. I don't think there's a unit that does it more than the offensive line and the running back group. So what is it about you guys? How did you develop that mindset and what is it that really puts that forth on game day? You know, I think it's just the group of guys that we have in there. You know, you said the offensive line, the running back, you know, the tight end, but like everyone involved has really taken the heart that it takes all 11 to be an effective offense and to run the ball. And I think the guys have bought in the guys like working together and like talking with each other. There's just a really great chemistry with everyone involved. And I think it shows on the field. Hey, Dennis. So Taylor Poppinon was another example of just the attrition that you guys have faced on the offensive line again today. I mean, what does it mean to know that it was really a team effort, not just the guys that started the season, but the ones that ended up finishing it tonight? Yeah, I think it just goes to show that question to sleep. You have to be ready at all times. And I think speaking for our room, guys understand that and guys are able to express that. We have plenty of guys who we have guys that have been starters from day one. We have guys like myself who's been back ups, who've been healthy scratches, who everything in between to give them hints and give them tips and just different ways of making sure that they're ready and making sure they're prepared if the numbers qualify. Hey, Dennis, when CJ got his 2000, it wasn't a playoff team and it was kind of a team mission to get him there. This is a far more natural occurrence that is pushing you places. Can you kind of speak to that difference like it's not a manufactured thing. It's it's kind of a root of who you are. Yeah, you know, it's we talked about it. Maybe over launch or something during one of our breaks this week about, you know, it's obviously that that's a goal and we're obviously happy to accomplish it. But, you know, the number one importance is to win the game and to win the division. You know, and there's there's a point of just, you know, guys, obviously we had an idea of what was going on during the game. But like I said, as well as things where it wouldn't it wouldn't have been a special if we ended up getting it, but it ended up losing the game, losing the vision and such. So I do think it adds to the to the the moment to know that it was Derek's success, the offensive success and as well as, you know, the team as a whole. Dennis, what was what was the exuberation? Like you won a lot of games, a lot of games coming down the stretch, a couple of overtime games this year as well. But just the exuberance when the ball hits the goal post and goes in and maybe there was a moment there where you didn't know if it was good or not. Just kind of went what went through your mind and how would you describe the celebration? Well, I did not see it. So thank you for telling me to hit the goal post. I was on the ground making sure no one else tipped the ball or anything like that. So I just ended up being on the ground and looking at the rep to see what their signal was because I heard the text and feeling like it's no good, it's no good. And then as soon as it happened, it was just one of those things where it's like you kind of surreal, you know, trying to find someone to celebrate with and trying to get off the ground, make sure everyone else is healthy. And so it was kind of chaotic just because I didn't see what happened. And so I was trying to kind of figure it all out at the same time with celebrating. Dennis, I know you've talked already about Derek's accomplishment. Just what about just playing with Derek and Ryan? Like you said, it's a collective effort, but playing with players who play at that level, what has that been like this season for all you guys? You know, it's great to be a part of it. It's great to watch. It's great. You know, it's a great form of leadership, you know, that those two are going to go to war with you every single chance they can. And, you know, they're going to fight for everything that they can. And so, you know, when you see that, you know, it makes you work a little bit harder, makes you try to push a little bit more on the play. And and I think it just kind of it's a great way of leading by example by both of them. You got the Rolexes last year. So we'll see what you get this year. But more seriously, I always like to get your perspective, like what's going on in the huddle. So as you guys are working towards that 2K for Derek, what what's the the verbiage? Like, what are you guys saying to each other? How has that proceeded to be honest? When we were on the field, we didn't talk about it at all. You know, we were we were concerned about making sure we understood the situation that we were in, you know, what down distance, anything like that, making sure there was any reminders that need to be put kind of on their personnel. So, excuse me, soon as we were on the field, that all the extra stuff kind of went to the wayside. And then when we got closer on the sideline, we, you know, people would ask, you know, how much more or how close and that. But once we're on the field, everyone was locked in and making sure that we were being the best decision for the play.
