Good to come out here on the road, get a win. A lot of resiliency. obviously the way it started out, a hundred yard return after we drove the ball down on him. Thought we played good, efficient football. Thought our quarterback played good again. So he's continued to use it, run again. Pass game was efficient, hit a couple of big plays.

And then defensively in special teams, you know. Again, we were grinding back and forth. They got a lot of talent on their football teams, good offensive football team. They've been doing a good job defensively, taking away passes.

But proud of the guys who come out here, play good game and get a win on the road. And, you know, it was, I think it was Tuesday. Goby brought that play up to me. You know, we talked about who we thought would be a good candidate to do the jump. And Isaiah, you know, came to mine. And he executed perfectly. So proud of our team, our coaches. They put a lot of hard work in to come out here on the road, you know, started out similar, not the same, but similar to the Cleveland week when we bounce back. So proud of the guys, competed well, got the result we want, but really the process is what I'm proud of, how they how they stay true to it, how they practiced, how they prepared, meetings, all those type of things. So good one.

SPEAKER_4 (2:29)

What did you think? What did you see that made you think that that play would work here and, you know, against the team?

Brian Daboll (2:34)

Yeah, well, I mean, you put a lot of trust in your assistants. So Goby thought it would be a good, you know, he showed me a few clips of and we held it too. We were, you know, I kept asking for it during the game. I thought, you know, we probably had a chance at it. Goby's like, I just want to set it up one more, one more. And look, there's risk reward to it, because if you get a penalty, then it's a first down for the offense. But I thought Goby did a great job of just setting up the rush, called it at the perfect time. And then, you know, Isaiah is over there before the play, practicing get offs and what he's doing. So he was prepared to go. You know, we had Dexter in there, you know, well executed play at a critical situation.

SPEAKER_5 (3:11)

Did you guys notice that Tomlinson would at least typically go real low when you block like that?

Brian Daboll (3:17)

Yeah, I'm not going to get into the strategy, but yeah, I mean, that's like, we put a lot of hard work into it every week as a coaching staff. That's our job is to try to put the players in the best position we can. And then ultimately on Sundays, it's their job to go out there and perform and execute and, you know, work together with the coaches and give and take stuff. It was a good team win.

SPEAKER_6 (3:35)

What do you say on Isaiah on the field goal block?

SPEAKER_5 (3:36)

He usually is on that.

Brian Daboll (3:37)

Yeah, but we moved him around. I mean, look, it was just a good game plan play by Goby and the special teams guys. And then, you know, he was, I was asking for it a little bit earlier. And, you know, he just got a lot of trust in our coaching staff. It's a very cohesive unit all the way through. Special teams, defense, offense, a bunch of good people to work with.
