00:00I think it's been great, like I said, at the start it was kind of shaky, just trying to

00:10figure out what Shane liked and what we were good at, trying to find identity, and being

00:15able to go through that process, that coaching changed, getting another guy come in and make

00:21the plays, and you got to understand why he's calling those plays, it's hard, and then you

00:26have to learn to do it for yourself, so I think he's took it well and he's getting better.

00:31From a coaching staff, I think early in the season it was from the players, and I think

00:36we did a good job of that, holding the player, the player held meetings, the captain's going

00:42to his coach, he said what he said, and that's taking it upon ourselves to be accountable

00:47against ourselves, and then, you know, vice versa, we kind of wanted the same thing, but

00:52I don't think the locker room was wavered at all in the season, I think every game we

00:56went in with open confidence, I think it was one of those games that hasn't changed up

01:02until now, so I think we keep improving, kind of memorize the situation because it's a marathon,

01:08so I think we got maybe a week left to see if this thing can still end up the way we

01:14want it to, but always keep going, always keep working, at the end of the day you got

01:19to get better for yourself, and then obviously the team.

01:23Do you have any idea what you're getting into when you came to Atlanta?

01:29I ain't going to answer that question.
