What were the keys to the team’s victory this week?
Stifling defense even without Kwity Paye. We made minimal mistakes and forced 7 turnovers.
The team now has back to back wins, what could you attribute the recent success too?
An easy stretch of the schedule. Can't be satisfied.
Can you talk about what it’s like to prepare to go against a player like Keaton Mitchell?
He bear us last season with the Jets so we knew he was the only player we had to stop especially with Hardman out and then Kelce got hurt early on. We contained him insanely well until garbage time. We're about winning though so we didn't mind.
What makes Keaton Mitchell so good?
Speed. I don't care if he's an X factor or what abilities or ratings he has. Shaq Leonard had him right in front of him for a 4 yard loss and Mitchell turned it into a 4 yard gain.
What can you attribute to having one of the top-scoring teams in the league to this point?
A productive defense and an offense that is committed to trusting its weapons, even after it bites us.
Did you scout Walter Nolen before the draft? If so, what stood out about him?
No because we had negative need for a defensive tackle. He's a great player though.
Many rank your offensive line as one of the best in the league. How important is having a great offensive line?
Football is won in the trenches. Offensive and defensive line are my top two priorities and luckily they had a good foundation when I came in. We've elevated them to elite now.
How would you assess where your team is near the halfway point of the season?
