" I was kind of half joking is Sammy Morris came over and not really a joke mister fourth down all of a sudden back to back weeks -- no pressure any big -- at least this one you re inside the five. The last when it was you back in your -- 24 this with a little less."

" Sure made me. She may be a little more prejudice you know I think the the result has been Achilles heel of -- of late so. I don't know you know I mean it's. You know obviously you know all you know get the this that I guess for converting the first number out through -- sort of front."

" You know this team you think about the ravens. -- their team is using that kind of running backs and they haven't rates that great streak of now on the 100 yard -- think there's there's so good. Against the run consistently."

" Amid -- you know there's nothing of -- having a lot of factors this via obviously it's -- this team. The players in this scheme and India there's the veteran leadership on the on the deepens it has also. You know this in all those you know play a big factor in. You know keep in you know offenses from a from getting them on your --"

" And even though they've you know you can get a hundred yards rushing but to get two rushing touchdowns against the ravens that's quite an accomplishment."

" They know we you know on another it's you know say it's a great said and you know testaments to the defense but you know the same time it's. You know -- the other -- that really matters is is is that W and you know for us it's you know you mean I assume -- you know maybe -- that -- backs and have a you know -- have a great day but. We know we won the game and we and we do what we need to do to win. Are you one of those people who believe that how many times Iran is almost dues as important as how many yards -- get per carry it. Yet an amendment and as part of that I think it kind depends on the you on on the on the game situation in. You know what's it was have been presented to you. And in China and nothingness you know part of you know being a pro in and Ambien and a good offenses is being able to. To go kind of go David flow of the game is you know if it's if it turns into there to elect and an aerial assault and that's you know we need to do and if it's a grind it out on the on the ground us you know again I think we will look at feel confident both. What was the play on your touchdown run what was the call what what did you see when you got the ball it was very it was a pass alerted to or or around. And now see you know Tom had the had the look that we needed him. It was a draw and obviously -- would -- allows you. Kind of variety of -- you -- you can hit as far as you know just because the timing of the -- And again it open the backside in head you know Randy -- fall -- now -- Nazi affront to start with that was Steve Newman --"

" Case I'm sure that other backs and your team would say they learn a lot from you what do you learn from the other bats in your team."

" You know I mean there's nothing there's -- there's tons of -- I think. Yum and have your voice citizens whose son -- it was you know -- of that this is this book your Kevin's eleventh and in my ten some minutes is a lot of things you can learn and you and and I think. Just am I mean you see like even you know if you the fray when he's falling forward I'm when he you know did what -- she's trying to fall forward. And and which you don't you can expect that from him discuss these you know but bigger physical guy and then of the season they were Kevin's doing. You know I think judge you know you just kind of the you the diskette -- but you know he's he's still -- apologies you know -- one."

" I was gonna say he's probably rare for people -- just look at him from afar. He probably would surprise people with this strike."

" Yeah eight -- he's a big muscular mean tough guy and you know and he runs hard and he's he's the size of you had six carries and five catches yesterday would you prefer. Winning FFF doesn't matter since winning."

" Bloggers here that the reason I ask that is we were we were kind of joking about looking at carries on the team. And and Lawrence and Fred had seven -- you had six. And then Tom Brady had five. When it when did he become a running threat on this football team."

" When. When he you'll notice when he needs to make a play he knows. It was good to see him you come around around in. You know my -- soon -- slide a little sooner but. You know he and he's tough guy and he's he's not afraid to you know the sling it out of there and but each enemies enemies these really tough -- released. So part."

" It up but there's game what what is -- about that the ravens game as it is it more of an attacking scheme that. That allows them to be so stout against Iran what it what is his specific."

" And as both a thing I think they you know they they can making gift you with with the -- they can they can put pressure on the quarterback with without blitzing. With no outs in I think so it's no kind of come lead that charge and you amended and plus you know the got a great second -- so it kind of bacon if they can put pressure on the quarterback. Just with four guys rushing and you know she got Ed Reed lurking back there he's always factored into past. You know you can you can -- four guys and you yet Jerry Lewis and them and all the other bitterly used to have back -- this. I mean just I mean you need to get through the first moments ago or about them in the run game."

" Can you almost tell what kind of defense you played against by how you feel on Monday morning."

" I mean. You know I think or Monday mornings in general does not that great as a -- it's -- this is -- up for -- is that there -- corporate you know so it's. -- you know it's I think you for the most part -- was pretty beautiful Monday and Tuesday and then China. Trying to nursing wounds endured for Wednesday. I'm sure you've had a chance to play in Denver in the past does it affect you we hear about mile high and all that stuff what's the effect -- Yeah. You know the times I played I was -- was men on special teams in. And maybe have my. Second. My first or Miami actually. When I was carrying a little morbid. You know I don't know I don't. You know we call like all that big difference you know it's. Amount of."

" If they what you think it's psychological ailment. But you know and have good players are probably get -- home they don't. You can you can deal with the home. Seen much difference. I think there's the Denver Nuggets -- 11711. -- and I play 41 games."

" And endeavor that was all gonna -- at all. Hey Lawrence. At times can frustrate some folks -- how he runs and it's especially. In comparison to watching you when Fred hit the hole is it at times just -- decisiveness at the moment you get the ball what is. I only mean you know bring -- you know and ask him you know I don't know it's non it is different. Because in and I I've read -- your offensive lineman I think it was Logan. Was talking about you and in particular and he said we know that if we give Sammy. Any -- at all but he's gonna get the whole hard and he's gonna be going forward when he hits that Kris. And I don't always get that sense from Lawrence that that that same mentality is there."

" You know I don't I don't know but I think you know -- no provision for me personally that's this is kind of you know -- my motto and you may part of it is that you know I don't have. You know Lawrence and Kevin and those guys beat you know x.s you get outside you know maybe don't -- go downhill but you know I've always. I was come you know just to do approach said. You sick in the sixth is better than you know section eight or nine you know so it's I'm always trying to -- Ford and and in kind of safely get six -- you know not do anything new craze of the ball but you know chart is trying to -- organization York's."

" Safely meaning the ball not you -- Or the ball that he got to worry about. Well congratulations on the win the touchdown the fourth down conversion he would be going fourth downs every week now I think --"

" I'm hoping it's within -- to be put in -- situation but you know the common number moderate. Appreciate it gives -- and thanks Sammy Morris joining us here on Sports Radio W media."
