Grab your popcorn, it’s another Jameis Winston interview.
Following an upset, 29-24, win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, Cleveland Browns quarterback Winston gave a few postgame words to compliment what he said before kickoff.
“Unwavering faith,” he told CBS Sports’ Amanda Balionis. “Ultimate belief. Dependent on the lord, dependent on the lord should have been first. He gets all the glory, thank you Jesus, thank you for this win.”
He also quoted Eminem’s “Lose Yourself,” saying “There’s a white boy from Detroit that I really admire, named Eminem. He said, ‘You only get one shot. Do not miss your chance to blow. This opportunity lasts once in a lifetime.'”

Winston was put back in the starting position — a position he knows well and it would appear the era is off to a good start. He completed 27 of 41 yards for 334 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. This was after five consecutive losses.

“One play at time. We fall, we gave everything we could possibly give,” he said. “Thank you for the offensive line, thank you for the defensive line — of winning the trenches, and thank you for the Browns fans for coming out and standing up and helping us get a victory here at home.”
His pregame interview was similar.
“Unwavering faith. Ultimate belief,” Winston said. “Depending on the Lord — that’s all we got.”
