Postgame – Cincinnati

TE Mike Gesicki (transcribed by Faustino Yanes)

(A wild day for you personally?) – “Yeah, it was fun. That’s the game of football right there – all the good stuff, all the bad stuff and everything in between. (There’s) a lot to learn from, a lot to grow on and I’m just happy to that we were able to come out with the win.”

(You guys build a 23-point lead. We saw it disappear in six-and-a-half minutes. What happened to build that lead and what happened that let it go away?) – “I mean like I said, that’s just the game of football. They’re out there making plays, too. I think that we put ourselves in a position to go out and win a game and then they came back and kept fighting, so you tip your hat off to them. Then in overtime, our defense got a couple crucial stops for us, and then we were able to go down there, make a couple of plays to get in field goal range and Jason (Sanders) sent us home happy, so it was good.”

(It was your first career two-touchdown game, can you talk about that how…?) – “Yeah, (there were) plays out there to be made and when the ball’s up, you’ve got to go get it. There was one in overtime that I wish I could have brought in; but that’s part of the game, so I’ve got to be able to learn from all of that and take the good and the bad. (I’ve) got to be able to grow from all of it.”

(You had the drop and then I think you caught a very similar pass there. Were they the same calls essentially?) – “No they were different calls; but like I said – I feel like I’ve said it like four times now (laughter) – that’s the game of football. It’s a long game, especially when you go into overtime, and that was a full 70 minutes. There are going to be good plays, there are going to be bad plays and I think the biggest part is just being able to fight through the bad ones, grow on the good ones; and the best part about it is we got the win, which is huge.”
