Sometimes the sacks will be there, sometimes they won&#8217;t. Sometimes you get some pressures, some disruptions to throw off the timing and stuff like that. Sometimes, you know, you hit those home runs each time. Sometimes it connects. But I was just doing my job the best that I could, to the best of my ability. Sometimes you hit those home runs and you feel great, sometimes it don&#8217;t. But you gotta do your job and allow your teammates to step up and also do their job and fulfill their roles as well. So you know, I have my different roles that the team asks me to do.
