You’re gearing up for your NFL playoff game in your career. What aspect of Sunday’s game are you most excited about?
“It’s going to be a huge game. I’m looking more forward to the crowd. Though it’s going to be a crazy atmosphere, but definitely the crowd.”
Setting aside storylines, it’s well known that the Rams boast a highly potent offense. What do you anticipate will be the most significant challenge in dealing with it?
“Biggest challenge for this defense? That’s a good question. There are going to be a lot of different challenges. That’s why it’s kind of hard to boil it down to one. But I’d say tackling. They do a good job of breaking tackles like yards after the catch and whatever. So I think this has to be a really, really good tackling game for us.
“That’s actually a point of emphasis for us this week as well. But I think tackling is going to be a huge challenge. They do break a lot of tackles, and we’re going to have to get population to the ball. We do a good job of getting guys to the ground. So we’re just going to continue to do that.”
