We'll be challenged and challenged in a big way in that regard.

But again, it's December.

The road's getting narrow, such is life in the big show, man.

And we're all happy, obviously, to be a component of that.

But we'll narrow our focus, man.

And understand that we pay respect for this big game by living these moments day to day and having great days.

It started for us early this morning or late last night, depending on your perspective as a staff.

And it'll continue with the guys as they get into the building tomorrow in an effort to move forward towards Sunday.

It benefits us as a collective, I think it raises the tide for the collective.

It's just certain conversations and things that you don't even worry about.

And you don't even have to tell him, hey, throw an incompletion or take a sack because we want the clock running.

He knows that.

He's lived that life.

And so that's just one small example, but there's countless examples of benefits of having a guy with his level of experience, the quality of that experience, particularly this time of year as the road gets narrow.

Why is this specific group enabled to make an impact quickly?
