Edwards said: "We've been performing well, results have been against us, but that can happen against Manchester United, Liverpool, (Aston) ViIla.
"We played well in those games in big, big spells, but hopefully this is a springboard. Hopefully it garners a lot of belief, we're up against it at the moment. I know there are a lot of clubs suffering with injuries, but it's hard for us with so many players missing, and then to lose two centre backs during the game as well.
"We've got a lot of square pegs in round holes out there towards the end and to find a way when we're not at our best, away from home in the Premier League, with so many injuries, to find a way to get something, drag something out, drag a result out is huge.
"We took the handbrake off in the second half, we had a lot of momentum, huffed and puffed but couldn't create big chances. Carlton (Morris) had one decent touch and volley, Chieo's (Ogbene) header, a lot of threat with crosses into the box, the keeper catching it and some if only moments. Then we're pushing, changing things around, players are coming off injured, (Eberechi) Eze had a couple of moments of genius and we could have been 2-0 down, but I thought intensity improved in the second half and that was probably the key to it."
