 still tough on me. Not even gonna lie. You know, you work so hard for one goal and you know, we feel short. So I'm it's tough, you know, we've been through a lot as a team this year. You know, I've been through a lot myself this year. You know, so but I'm definitely proud of how we we handle diversity and kept going. You know, so that's AJ speaking on kind of adversity, what you guys had to overcome. I guess with that, I mean, how much of that was kind of that in-house belief that kind of no matter level team? Um, yeah, for sure. I think I think it just the way we just handle things each and every day. You know, you know, in life, we have problems thrown at us, you know, football is the same thing. You got to learn the way to adjust and move forward. And I think that's what we did this year. You know, we just fell we just fell short at the end and but you know, we always had that next man up mentality and push through it versus no matter what, we find a way. So this time, we just fell short. Yeah, man, it's a tough day. It's a tough day because you know, this team, I'm not gonna play with the same team. And, you know, I wish it was different, you know, but this is the nature of the business. You know, I kind of wish it was like college. You can keep guys around and you can build and grow together. But you know, people, people go there several ways and I know they're trying to do what's best for their family. You know, so it's just a part of it. That's the part I just don't like about it. Like I spoke on the strength of this team, the core of it is strong. You know, we care about each other and we try to push through things, push through adversity, you know, that's what's important. That's what I learned. What's important about this team is we're strong. We have a strong core. For me personally, you know, I can't put up stats if I'm not on the field. So, you know, I got banged up a little bit this year, but you know, it is what it is. And you know, I wouldn't change it either way, you know, because it, you know, last year it was difficult for me, you know, and this year I knew how to handle it, you know, so I'm proud of myself, you know, no matter what, you know, I still, it's all I took out of the blows. So, you know, for me personally, so, you know, most definitely, I would definitely think, you know, interest a part of this game, you know, that we don't like about it, but it's a part of it. We play a physical game and, you know, we don't have you guys on the field, you know, you know, it's gonna be down. So it sucks every year, but given what you've accomplished this year, the one seed home field at this day, you suck a little bit more this time around? I think it does because, you know, we were in position to do something real special. We had, you know, the red carpet here through Nashville, you know, and that's what we wanted. That's what we talked about, you know, and this time, you know, it's like it's been levels, you know, when the AFC, the AFC South Division, you know, won that twice, and now we got the home field advantage, you know, and it's levels. And I really feel like this year was a year to to to make it happen. Stylistically, you're confident that the way you guys play can get it can get it done when you're watching these other teams sling it all over the place. This is what we do here, you know, we run the ball and then we play action. That's what we do here. So I can't speak on other people, other people, you know, but that's what we do here. And I'm I'm confident. I'm confident we had, like I said, we had enough talent in the locker room to to make it happen. It just came about execution. That's what that's what wins that we know how to win here, you know, and what we do. That's that's why we win. So what's next in your progression? Me, man, I'm I'm still chasing still chasing to be the best every day. I want more for myself personally, you know, I feel like I'm just getting started, you know, I feel like I could do anything I want to do. Not to just talk about my goals, but you know, I feel like I could I could I can definitely be top two, you know, in the league, you know, and I'm gonna keep chasing it until I until I'm not. I mean, yeah, that's cool. You know, that's cool. Debo is a special player, you know, you know, and his skill set is it's kind of different from my to be honest, you know, if you compare him to compare the two, but I'm good with the rock in my hands too. And I think I think that's what guys compare to. But you know, no matter what, however they use me, you know, I'm happy for it. So I talked to him, you know, I'm gonna keep it comes between me and him. But he's a strong guy. He's a strong guy. And I know a lot of people down on it right now. But you know, it's a team game, you know, you know, he didn't lose the game by himself. How disappointed are you that you never really got the chance to work together a whole lot this year on the field? Because you got in and out of the lineup and you'll be back maybe do that next year. Yeah, it was it was it was on and off the field. So just having him on the field and having all those on the field at the same time, we can the more the more time we're on the field, the better we were going to be. So, you know, I think it is a part of the game. I mean, for me personally, especially I kind of got away from my normal lift routine because I was I was banged up in the offseason. So by this time, I'm healthy. You know, I can get back to my old ways and you know, train, lift heavy, do what I do, you know, so
