"Yeah, he's one of the better players. There's a lot of really good players out there and he's definitely one of them. What I loved, he's breaking it down there right at the end that he's talking about all the mistakes that we've got to, you know, fix. They're easy, correctable things, but instead of having his head in the sand and acting like we played like the '85 Bears today, he's like, "Hey man, that's a win and you've got to enjoy it, man, winning is so hard."
