• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Assessment how the defense played that not good enough, didn't
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: get us a win? Yeah, not good enough. It look
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: like after some of the turnerves, you were maybe kind
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: of trying to pick some guys out before we got
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: You know, how import is that in that connection been
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: offense defense when one side struggling, Yeah, I mean you
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: have to. I mean, regardless of what side struggling, We've
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: all struggled at some point during the game, and the
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: other sides lifted us up. So that's all I was doing,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: was trying to do my best to keep the guys
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: motivated regardless of what's going on. Still a lot of
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: ball left, let's keep going. They were able to hit
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: on a few big runs early second half. You guys
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: bottled him up pretty good. What adjustments did you guys
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: make there in terms of how you fit it right?
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Those what two or three runs? We didn't fit it right? One,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: two of 'em, I'll say all three of 'em. I
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: put on myself. Any runs come through the middlefielders of mine,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: and I wasn't where I needed to be. So that's
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: how they get sixty some of y'rs six carries. Afford
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: has been playing arguably as well as he ever had
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: in his career over the past month or so, what
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: were you guys able to do to to break up
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: his rhythm and make things hard on him? Think we
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: were able to get some pressure, get a get a
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: little pressure on him when he was, you know, moving
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: on his throws. He didn't have all the time all
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: day to you know moving get those throws out. I
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: think the the game plan we had coming into the
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: game was pretty pretty tight, pretty good one. We just
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I think we didn't execute early enough and didn't catch
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: up at the back end. How'd you feel, physical player
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: at the game. They're good right now, not sad? He said, Hey,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: let me ask you, what do you say? Where did
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: I I mean Sam's been bothering right if we wanna
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: try to define Sam by this game or what, man,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Sam's been had us in every game. So for him
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: to sit there and say, oh, that's my fault, No,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: it's not. It was plays that defensively, we could have
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: made plays. There were opportunities where we could have got
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: better stops. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, like it's football man,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: and he's our quarterback. We got his back and we
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: got anything to say. Quite frankly, yeah, right, bigger picture.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Do you expect to see these guys even more than
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: the ones in Seattle? Say that again, do you expect
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: to see these guys again more than just a second
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: game in Seattle? That's our go Hopefully they on the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: same page as us. Is the bigger picture. I mean,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: there's so much time still up in the season, so
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: many games left up. Where do you feel your as
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: a team getting as all that went wrong today and
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: still coming to put a player too? He went the
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: game got I think we're a good team. We we
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: we turned about at four four times and we lost
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: by two points. We had a touchdown taking back and
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: we shhed is a a hand away from scoring to
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: that touchdown. So we're a good team. We just didn't
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: execute and capitalize 'em and we had mistakes. And you know,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: they did it. They played a clean game and they
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: got the win. But as a team, they went in
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: good shape. We're still in a in a in a
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: good spot. I believe one loss, desert define its got
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: a lot of football left. Thank you, Thanks for ship
