• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Of this game where the defense did all that they could,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: but Mac just you know, had some chances but just
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: wasn't able to get this offense going after the first
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: touchdown drive.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's you know, I thought defense obviously
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: did an outstanding job, you know, with.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: The type of firepower they have on offense.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: You know, just I know there was you know, yards
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: and time of position all that, I got it. But
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: you know, to hold that team to four field goals,
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: it gives you, gives you a chance. Obviously we had
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: to drive in the first you know, in the first
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: quarter there touchdown drive, and then after that it just.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: We couldn't stay on the field.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: I mean it, you know, credit uh Minnesota, you know,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: and what they did defensively, coach Flooryes, I mean, you know,
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: they they did their stuff and and you know, we
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: just we didn't over overcome a few things, had a
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: couple of setbacks on first down, hadn't too many second longs.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: But you know, this game is not about one person
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: or one man. It's a team sport, and we just
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: didn't do enough today.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: What what kind of feedback, if any did not give
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: you about the two interceptions, it looked like he stared
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: down Gabe on one and then on the long pass
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: it looked like he also got hit on the release,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: So I don't know what that did to change the
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: trajectory at the ball.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I you know, I got to honestly, just we
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: gotta watch the tape tomorrow, watch it with them, the
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: players get feedback. And cause I didn't, I didn't necessarily
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: speak to him after, you know, we there's you know,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: the two change of possessions like that, we were right
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: back on defense, so I didn't get a chance to
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: talk to him at that time. From it, I mean,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: he's hurting, he's he's taken it hard. I just told
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: him it's it's you know again, it's it's not it's
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: not about one guy. You know, this is a this
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: is a team deal. And and offensively, you know, we
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: didn't do enough around Mac and I'm not listen, it's
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: it's it takes eleven guys, And.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, coach, why don't you have such a difficult time
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: today getting the body of wide receivers.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: I think there were only three targets to them in
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: the first three quarters. Minnesota did a nice job.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: They showed, you know, if you watch the game, they
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: showed a lot of six up, seven up, which which
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: they do play a lot of you know, cover two,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: spin out to cover two, a lot of cloud stuff
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: and and then of course the pass rush. So it
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: it it.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Puts it's it's a challenge. I mean, it's it's a challenge.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: And and you know, we obviously have to do a
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: better job when we see that kind of stuff and
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: and you know, execute coaches, we can we can.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Prepare a little better there and help our guys out.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: But uh, you know, I credit what they did, Doug,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: just from a big picture standpoint.
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: What's your level of disappointment and maybe even shocked just
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: being two and eight through ten games.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we never you know, never expected to be here
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: obviously where we had five or six games, now there
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: are you know, one score games.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: This is uh, it's just it's hard. It's it's hard.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: You know, we're as a team as coaches as we're
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: making it hard, making it too hard, and and the
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: guys are the guys are frustrated, and they should be,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: and they're angry, and they should be because we all are.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: And but we have to channel it in a positive
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: way and get ready for another one.
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: Doug I know you mentioned that last week they were
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: clouding Brian Thomas a little bit, taking them away. You
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: see more of that kind of stuff today, or is
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: it just Minnesota's defense And is there anything you can
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: do to get it to him and get him into
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: the game because he just it's been so minimal touching
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: the ball last couple of weeks.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, they they played more.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is a cover two defense,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: and they did a lot of that today. And then
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: and then again it's you know, their pass rush did
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: a nice job, got some pressure on on Mac, made
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: him you know, made him scramble early. And then so
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: it's it's a it's a combination of both, right, it's
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: uh what they did schematically to us and then and
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: then just our you know, execution offensively.
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: What was the play? What was supposed to happen on
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: the final Mac interception if he didn't get hit and
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: throw the pick.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not going to go through the details of
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: the play because you guys wouldn't figure it out. But
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: we're gonna look at the tape tomorrow and and we'll
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: make those corrections.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Doug, you guys have worked so hard on trying to
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: get things going early. Second drive nine plays, seventy yards,
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: four passes, five runs. They ended up being half your offense.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: Are you shocked that you got it done the way
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: you did but then you couldn't continue it throughout the
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: remaining three quarters?
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Shocked that we were able to score.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: Just move the ball with the type of success.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Was not shocked early in the game. I mean that
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: that's what we expected to do. You know, I think
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: as the game progressed, it just got seemingly worse. Right
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: first down, run the ball, we got behind the chains,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: second long, it just got it got harder offensively.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: And.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: You know that was the That was the frustrating part.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: I think, just not staying positive on first down, because
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: you go back to that drive, that's what we did.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: We were able to stay on the field and stay
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: positive on first down.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: All right, Thanks coach
