Go for it.
Hi Tom, can you hear me?
Yes, perfect will have the first
question come from Greg Allman.
Hey Tom, Congrats on the win.
I know you've had a lot of these
comeback wins, but this day as a
whole I just want to ask you if you
had a day in a win as chaotic as
this game was starting to finish,
we got behind and you know,
we literally played from
behind the entire day till.
59 minutes and 45 seconds so.
You know we never got a lead and.
You know our defense came up
with a huge stop there at the
end to give us a chance to go.
However, many yards 80 yards,
95 yards, how many 9393 yards.
So we got a great stop by our
defense and then gave us a chance
with you know two minutes left and
talked about those situations a
lot and a lot of guys came through
and made some huge plays and.
A lot of great plays on that Dr catches
run after catches and then obviously
Cyril made a great catch up the sideline to,
you know, to get us to win so great.
Great job.
We got the two point.
And just a great team win.
We'll go to Rick Stroud.
Tom, you mentioned Sir and he's come up big.
He had two today 'cause he
didn't have any Antonio Brown.
The second half. Most of it.
How disappointed are you?
Bruce Arians said he's no longer a buck.
Yeah, I mean, that's obviously a
difficult situation and you know,
I think we all want you know him to, to,
you know, just think everybody should find.
You know, hopefully do what they can to help
him in ways that that you know he really
needs it and you know we all love him.
We care about him deeply.
You know we want to see him be at his best,
and you know, unfortunately,
won't be with our team, but.
You know we have a lot of
friendships that that will last.
And again, I think the most
important thing about football are
the relationships with their your
friends and your teammates and
they go beyond the field and.
You know, I think everyone should
should be very compassionate and
empathetic toward, you know, some very
difficult things that are happening.
Water gently.
Hey Tom, I I'm sure there's
there's so many questions that
still have to be answered.
How challenging was it?
If it was for you guys to focus
while that was all transpiring
and transpiring very quickly?
But you know the guys that were in the game?
We know we're just we're in the game
focus too, so I didn't know too much
until after the game to be honest, so.
You know I was just out there
playing trying to do my job.
Well, it's not Reynolds.
Tom, between when you found out that
that that Antonio had taken off his
his jersey and then left the field.
What was your reaction was one of surprise
or disappointment or frustration or anger?
What was what were you feeling at that time?
I didn't know. I was just, you know,
I'm out there and and really proud
of the effort that our guys gave.
You know, throughout the day, man, you know.
Again, I think you go on the road and you
get behind and you know we face different
adversities throughout the day. But,
you know, we found a way to win in the end.
And a great drive bar.
Our offense at the end. Great.
Just stop by our defense defense
came together. Some guys stepped in.
We're still pretty short handed at
different positions, so you know,
every team faces different things
over the course of a long season.
And I'm sure we'll face difficult
things going forward.
And we're just going to do the
very best we can do with the
opportunities were presented.
And you know,
really happy to get to 12 and four and we got
a home game to try to get the 13 and four.
And I think our focus is going to be on that.
And and, you know,
try to improve this week in practice and
put ourselves in a position to go out
and play a good final game of the year.
We're going to.
Hey Tom, obviously
you played with a lot of
receivers in your in your career.
How cool is it just to be a
part of development like Cyril
Grayson like you've had with him
over the last couple of weeks?
Cereals really taking advantage
of his opportunity and he,
you know made a lot of plays
so it's really fun to see.
And you know, just.
You know it's good when guys get
their opportunity and you know I was
a guy who didn't get my opportunity
till my second year and the guy
had to get hurt in front of me.
A great great player and
Drew Bledsoe and dumb.
You know, I just stepped in and tried to
do what I could do to help the team win,
and I think that's what you're
seeing from a lot of guys.
Keyshawn, you know,
Rose playing a bigger role.
You know, I know.
He went out today.
BP's playing a role.
Obviously mikes playing a great
role for us that he always has.
Gronk is Cam is OJ wells is playing
some different things for us.
Some the lines been really intact
for the most part of the year.
So a lot of guys are doing a
lot of good positive things.
We have time for a few more.
We'll go to Greg Allman and
then finish with Rick Stroud.
You talked about the outcome and how
you guys were able to win at the end.
This could have been a really rough game
to talk about if things haven't gone well.
How much does this help this team to have
the continuity of winning and the momentum
that comes with another win you had today?
To be down, you know 14 points and
to come back and win is pretty.
Is is a great thing and you'd rather be
ahead, but we just didn't get ahead.
You know they played good.
I mean I give him a lot of credit.
They played good on defense.
They played really well.
They stop their run game at different times,
did a good job pressure on us in the pocket.
They did a good job on
offense with their run game.
They kept, you know we had one
drive in the first quarter.
We just didn't have the ball and they
you know they stopped us a few times.
You know, for a field goal.
So we just we.
We got behind and you know the key
to NFL is just playing from ahead.
You know, we we, we look at the games,
we've been successful a lot of times.
We played from ahead and you know,
we played from behind today and
it's not what you want to do.
Last one come from Rick Stroud.
Tom on the final drive.
I mean, you get the ball up like the
seven yard line you you've been in
this position before, but no timeouts.
What's the key to knowing,
sort of when to take the shot?
Move the chains?
All that sort of thing what?
What's your approach there?
You know, for me, it's just I have a lot
of confidence in the guys I'm playing with
and you know the line was playing great.
The receivers were making plays,
the tight ends were making plays,
the backs were making plays,
so you know from my stamp quarterback
standpoint, just. You know,
believe it in your guys and trust in them.
That's that's what that
situation is all about.
We did that today, so thank you guys.
