Halftime – Buccaneers

Head Coach Mike McDaniel on WFOR broadcast with Kim Bokamper

(Coach, you get a couple late scores to take the lead into halftime. What did you see in the first half that you liked?) – “What I liked was – the whole objective of the preseason was to have some adversity and fight through it. Obviously, we didn’t come out the exact way we wanted. Guys are getting used to tackling, but what I did like is no one panicked and then people made some plays and then we were opportunistic. In the second half, we have got to run the ball a little bit better. We can stop the run a little bit better because it’s coming, but this is a great opportunity for all these young guys to keep performing.”

(How do you feel about the energy and the effort from your team?) – “I like it. That’s really what I wanted to see. I was happy that we got down a little bit because you get to see how people react. People maintained focus, so I liked that. Hopefully moving forward when we do have adversity, we’ll have a little bit more energy on top of that.”

(Any butterflies before the kickoff?) – “No. The thing is I’m not good at much else besides football, so this is the one time I’m pretty comfortable. It was pretty cool through, a special moment to share with all these people.”
