So, we know what it takes to get off the canvas and dust yourself off and get going again, regardless of anything that comes about. We know how to stay focused on the goal.

I think we just got back to doing the things that we do as a defense. That?s playing downhill.
case couple enjoy preparing ready team turn
I see a team that's ready to turn this thing around. I could sense guys' going out and preparing to enjoy this game. I don't know if that was the case the first couple games.

Just pick one. I'll just toss them all in the air and you grab one. There were so many things that happened this year, it's been ridiculous.
confidence game hopefully losing mentality nasty releases rest start taste winning
Winning does something to you. It releases something in you, it's confidence and you get that nasty taste of losing out of your mouth. You get that losing mentality out of your system. That first game is going to be critical. Once we get that first game, hopefully it will be this week, we can start doing what we need to do for the rest of the season.
huge stretch
That was a huge, huge stretch for us.
