 I don't suppose you want to talk about the stiff arm from last year or what you remember about it? No, I kind of don't. This happened, this over with. That run defense is a third rank in the league. What are some of the things that stand out when you watch them? Yeah, that third rank for a reason. Even looking back, like, I think 2019, two years ago, we still got some of the same guys who played together for a long time, who know the scheme very well, who does great in the scheme, have a lot of experience from top to bottom, so it's a really good defense. What do you remember about last year's game with Buffalo, not the stiff arm, but just kind of the COVID chaos that led up to it, and you guys ended up playing so well against the bill despite everything that went on. What are your memories of that? Oh, yeah, last year it was crazy, especially with that little deal we had with COVID, and then having to play on a Tuesday, which we end up winning, but every time we play Buffalo, it's always tough. It was tough at the beginning of that game last year, but we were coming out with a big win, but playing these guys is always tough. They're always solid in all three phases. Can you look at the entire body of work on offense? How much room do you think there is for improvement? How much better do you think you guys can get? Yeah, you're always looking to improve every week, whether it's together or individually. That's always main focus, just improving each and every week. No matter how it goes, just always wanting to be better. For you and the run game overall, where are some areas that can be better? You've been stringing some things together, but is it running better in the first half, or is there any specific areas that you've been able to hone in on? Yeah, I think just seeing it and just hitting it, no hesitation whenever I see it, just go hit it. Like last week, Taylor said we left a meeting on the bone, so it's trying to be better than I was last week, and make the most out of my plays and get the most I can when I'm with balls in my hands. You had mentioned how records are made to be broken. Obviously, Emmett Smith's record is something that seems like it's unlikely, but do you think that that's something that will never be broken? I really don't think that far about his record. We all know his body will work. I don't really try to get too ahead of myself with records at all. Just focus on me and what I need to do to help this team win, and what we do as a team. I don't try to get caught up in all the records and things like that. I mean, that just takes care of itself. I think of what Mike seems to come up with something every week, some kind of narrow focus. I don't catch phrase mantra of the week. How much does that do to help you guys narrow the focus and have a theme of the week? I just coach. He finds any way to help us get better, or put an edge to this team in all three phases, and something to instill in our minds, to go out there and focus on each and every week, to go out there and get better, push each other, and we all love it and we feel off of it. What's this week's? Thank you. The message is no matter the stats or whatever is out there, just focus on what we need to do to improve all week and go out there and try to get a win. I mean, no matter what rankings or anything like that, just go out there and line it up and go play. Tara, do you enjoy the Monday night football stage and the opportunity to play when everybody's watching? Football is football to me. We play on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and go out there and play. The fans, though, Derek, you don't get many Monday night football games here. The last one was 2017, and for the fans just to go out there and kind of treat them with something and feed off their energy as well. Say it again. For the fans, I mean, you talk about it for yourself, obviously, it's just another football game, but for the fans, I think they think of it as a big opportunity for you guys to be on the national stage. Yeah, it's always nice to get national attention, and hopefully the fans come out and pack out the stadium and bring that intensity that they've been bringing, because we love it, love having a packed house, love having that energy, that extra push, and it's very important to have them in the stadium and packing out, and anytime you're on national TV, it's always big for your organization, for your team. Dude, we usually see you in 15 minutes maybe before kickoff when you come out for a little more. What do you do to kind of get your mind right for a game today? You listen to music, you kind of reflect? Probably slapping Roger then and Taylor in the face and making sure that they're ready to go. Nah, I'm warming up and doing everything I need to do, get my body ready to go out there and play. What's the cattle, go ahead. You talked about having the same approach no matter what game it is, no matter what day of the week, but when you do go up against a tough rushing defense like the Bills, how might your mindset or how might your approach differ a little bit knowing that you are facing a tougher defense on the other side? Yeah, I think it's just watching film from the previous matchups and then watching how they do this year just studying their defense and seeing the things that they're doing or differently and seeing over the years my play and just trying to improve that and keep watching that. What's the, is there a reason for the theme this week or the jersey? Not at all, this fashion. Do you hear during the course of a game a lot of chatter from obviously teams gunning to try to stop you? Do you hear a lot of chatter from opposing teams or in games and maybe you don't hear maybe as much from them as the game goes on? Nah, I wouldn't say not really. Of course, you have some guys that like to talk and that's part of their game when we're playing but it's nothing crazy. You have some guys that talk, some guys that don't but I don't really try to pay attention to it. I might do sometimes but I try not to. Adam Bobo about your recovery process and he said you take it very seriously one of the most serious guys about it that he's worked with. Why is that so important to you? I think because I know I'm going to get these workload questions so I've got to make sure I'm taking care of my body but yeah, it's important to have my body ready each and every week and doing everything I can to be out here and come to work every day and do what I love to do. When did you realize that that was something that's so important to have within your resume? Like I said, just being around guys when I first got in the league and seeing the success that they had and seeing how they take care of themselves just asking them and watching them and just trying to implement it into my great ones and everything about it always is great. It'd be a feel to be in a time where there's all these advances and all these options that you have rather than there was a time guys would just ice their knees probably the next day and move on, right? Yeah, it's crazy, it's incredible all the resources that we have for our bodies, for our recovery process to help us heal, just very thankful for it. Are you talking to them? You guys are saying anything? I just asked them how you guys doing? No, I'm kidding, I don't really talk at all.
