00:00 - Real quick, no injuries for you guys.
00:02 Came out clean.
00:03 Great team win.
00:05 I mean, huge to get to six and five
00:07 and then heading in obviously to a division game
00:09 next week against Tennessee will be big,
00:11 but huge team win.
00:13 Defense came out big there at the end with the sack fumble.
00:16 You know, offense did a good job moving the ball
00:17 in that first half, getting 17 points
00:19 and then finding a way, obviously at the end,
00:20 four minute to put it out.
00:22 So good team win.
00:23 - You went for it on fourth down four times.
00:26 What went into this?
00:28 The aggressiveness there?
00:29 - Just feeling it in the game.
00:30 There's no, I don't, you know, just saying,
00:32 here's what we're doing in this situation.
00:33 We went for it.
00:34 - How long did you have that play in your pocket
00:36 before the fourth and one play?
00:38 - Put it in this week.
00:39 Actually our tight end coach, Tommy,
00:41 he came to me with the idea
00:43 and we were doing our short yardage meeting
00:45 and I said, "Gee, that looks pretty good.
00:47 "That looks like a walk-in touchdown.
00:49 "Let's have that one up for sure."
00:50 And he says, "Who do we want at the fullback spot?"
00:52 We went back and forth and I said,
00:53 "Let's put Z in there at fullback."
00:54 And they gave us the look and it worked.
00:57 - What about Z's reaction to being
00:58 put in as fullback like it was even?
01:00 - Oh no, I hit him up during the week.
01:02 I said, "Hey, you're coming in on power.
01:03 "You're gonna block inside out on power."
01:05 He goes, "What?
01:06 "No, I'm faster than flat."
01:07 And I'm like, "No, no, no, no."
01:08 (laughing)
01:10 No, no, no.
01:10 You're gonna block power first
01:11 and then maybe something down the road.
01:13 But no, it was awesome to see.
01:14 It was a huge play.
01:15 - So what did you do about going hurry up
01:17 and keeping that personnel on the field?
01:19 - No, I felt good about that call.
01:21 We just were waiting for the right time to call it
01:23 and it came up in a big time situation
01:26 and we went for it and hit it.
