When Jameis Winston gets a mic, memorable things tend to happen. The veteran signal-caller’s postgame interview after leading the Cleveland Browns to an upset of the divisional rival Baltimore Ravens was no different.
Editor’s Picks
At first, Winston played the usual hits. He spoke about having faith. He thanked his offensive and defensive lines for winning in the trenches, as well as the Cleveland fans for creating a strong home environment.
Then things took a turn. He paid homage to rapper Eminem, referring to the lyrics of the Detroit rapper’s hit “Lose Yourself.”
You only get one shot
Do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity lasts once in a lifetime– @Eminem

“[Eminem] said ‘you only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow, this opportunity lasts once in a lifetime.'” Winston quipped, when asked what it meant to lead the team in his first start following an injury to Deshaun Watson.
Thanks in large part to Winston’s three-touchdown outing, the Browns snapped a five-game losing streak with their 29-24 victory. They’ll look to move to 2-0 with Winston as starter next week when they host the Los Angeles Chargers.
