RILEY, Circuit Judge.
Manuel Villareal-Amarillas (Villareal-Amarillas) and Juan Gonzalez (Gonzalez) each pled guilty to conspiracy to distribute in excess of 500 grams of methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), (b)(1)(A), and 846. The district court sentenced Villareal-Amarillas to 328 months’ imprisonment and Gonzalez to 151 months’ imprisonment. The government appeals Villareal-Amarillas’s and Gonzalez’s sentences, arguing the district court erred in its drug quantity findings and its failure to rule on the credibility of the government’s witnesses.
