Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Yeah, settling for three on that first drive out of
- 0:03Speaker 1: the half was disappointing. I thought it was a little
- 0:06Speaker 1: bit of a missed op at putting some pressure on
- 0:10Speaker 1: them to potentially go up 17-3, and then maybe you
- 0:13Speaker 1: apply a little bit more pressure, make them throw it
- 0:16Speaker 1: a little bit more. Obviously, I thought we had a
- 0:19Speaker 1: little momentum when we hit the dagger to Jacoby on
- 0:21Speaker 1: the explosive, and then we ended up stalling out and
- 0:24Speaker 1: missing the field goal there. So, Really, it comes down
- 0:27Speaker 1: to in all three phases in the second half, specifically,
- 0:32Speaker 1: you know, fourth quarter, we just didn't we did not win.
- 0:35Speaker 1: We didn't win it. We didn't coach it good enough.
- 0:37Speaker 1: We didn't play it good enough. And we did not finish. Yeah,
- 0:43Speaker 1: I think so. You know, we had a kind of
- 0:45Speaker 1: a double move going on over there. They played cloud.
- 0:48Speaker 1: He knew it was cloud. He thought that he had
- 0:50Speaker 1: a chance to hole shot it to him and The
- 0:53Speaker 1: guy just sunk underneath it, probably just something that we,
- 0:56Speaker 1: you know, we got to make sure you throw it outside,
- 0:58Speaker 1: get it up top and outside if you're going to
- 1:00Speaker 1: throw it. If not, you know, come on inside. But,
- 1:03Speaker 1: you know, I think he was probably trying to force
- 1:05Speaker 1: some a little bit. We didn't protect great. I thought
- 1:07Speaker 1: he was getting hit way too often. But that's just
- 1:09Speaker 1: an unfortunate part of it. Dave, were you a little
- 1:12Speaker 1: disappointed about that today? Just when some things went wrong,
- 1:19Speaker 1: you guys have been so good at that. Yeah. I thought,
- 1:21Speaker 1: you know, we played complimentary enough in the first half,
- 1:25Speaker 1: and that was what was disappointing was the complimentary football,
- 1:28Speaker 1: specifically in the second half. And as we really went
- 1:31Speaker 1: into the fourth quarter was when you needed a drive, right?
- 1:35Speaker 1: You needed a stop. You needed a catch. You needed
- 1:38Speaker 1: a play. We just, you know, didn't do it, right?
- 1:42Speaker 1: We just didn't make it. We've got to go watch
- 1:44Speaker 1: and see how can we put these guys in a
- 1:47Speaker 1: better position to be successful. And we've got to make
- 1:49Speaker 1: some more plays. You know, when we get one-on-one opportunities,
- 1:52Speaker 1: whether it's in the pass rush or in a block
- 1:56Speaker 1: or a catch, whatever that is, we've got to make better–
- 2:00Speaker 1: we've got to make some plays. Yeah, it was just
- 2:04Speaker 1: more the way that they were playing it wasn't just
- 2:07Speaker 1: really a game that we were kind of going to
- 2:10Speaker 1: just dink and dunk. Like that was– something that was
- 2:13Speaker 1: happening a little bit early on where they were mixing
- 2:15Speaker 1: coverages enough that we felt like kind of doing that
- 2:19Speaker 1: wouldn't really settle us in. And we just wanted to
- 2:23Speaker 1: continue to roll with what we were doing, but we
- 2:24Speaker 1: got to go look at it and see if we
- 2:26Speaker 1: can find some more ways to get them some ops. Yeah.
- 2:33Speaker 1: I thought that, you know, they did a nice job
- 2:35Speaker 1: of mixing not really just straight drop back, right. They
- 2:39Speaker 1: were play action, moving the launch point boots, getting them
- 2:43Speaker 1: on the move a little bit. I thought they did
- 2:44Speaker 1: a nice job with that. But, yeah, we definitely didn't
- 2:48Speaker 1: do enough in the rush, specifically in the second half
- 2:51Speaker 1: when he needed a play. I mean, I just thought
- 2:58Speaker 1: it was– I'm not going to comment on it. I
- 3:00Speaker 1: thought he played it decent and just said one thing
- 3:06Speaker 1: and got flagged. So it is what it is. There's
- 3:09Speaker 1: a little clarity on Travis. Oh, sorry. Change up and
- 3:15Speaker 1: mix up drive by drive. Yeah, we have a plan
- 3:17Speaker 1: that we go into each game with. It's the same
- 3:19Speaker 1: exact plan that we went into last week with in
- 3:22Speaker 1: terms of a rotation. So those guys are all rotating throughout. Yeah, probably.
- 3:32Speaker 1: I mean, I think we'll have to look at it
- 3:33Speaker 1: and just see like, hey, I mean, that's a good
- 3:36Speaker 1: offensive line. I don't want to take too much away
- 3:38Speaker 1: from them, but if we're going to beat a team
- 3:40Speaker 1: like that, then we're going to have to create some pressure,
- 3:42Speaker 1: something that we all kind of saw Kansas City do
- 3:45Speaker 1: in the game on Monday night, and we weren't able
- 3:48Speaker 1: to do that. And I think they caught us in
- 3:50Speaker 1: a couple blitzes that they identified pre-snap when we were
- 3:54Speaker 1: going to blitz and bring more, and they ended up
- 3:56Speaker 1: flipping the protections to pick some of that stuff up.
- 3:59Speaker 1: And so that's something we've got to look at as
- 4:02Speaker 1: well in terms of when we're bringing pressure. if they
- 4:04Speaker 1: identify it, hey, can we get out of it or
- 4:06Speaker 1: whatever it is. And when we do blitz, we've got
- 4:09Speaker 1: to get home. A couple of drops for BT today,
- 4:12Speaker 1: and I think LaQuint had one down there on the
- 4:14Speaker 1: line too. Those are all critical plays. When you're struggling
- 4:19Speaker 1: specifically to create and make a play, we need some
- 4:23Speaker 1: of our guys to step up, and I've got to
- 4:25Speaker 1: be better in terms of putting them in a better
- 4:27Speaker 1: position to be successful as well. It just felt like
- 4:30Speaker 1: we were a little off sync, a little out of
- 4:32Speaker 1: sync in the second half, In terms of just the
- 4:36Speaker 1: ball getting on, maybe it was on the outcut where
- 4:39Speaker 1: it's on him a little quick or we didn't see it,
- 4:41Speaker 1: whatever it is. So maybe some of the rush was
- 4:44Speaker 1: getting to us and the ball was having to come
- 4:46Speaker 1: out a little bit earlier and we just weren't in
- 4:49Speaker 1: sync enough, especially in the second half. That goal line
- 4:53Speaker 1: stand you guys had in the first half, how much
- 4:55Speaker 1: of a jolt could that have been? I mean, it
- 4:57Speaker 1: was huge. We went down right before the half and
- 4:59Speaker 1: got points, just kind of eerily similar to the last
- 5:02Speaker 1: time we were here where We got to stop, and
- 5:04Speaker 1: we were able to go down the field and get
- 5:06Speaker 1: points before the half, and it gave us some momentum
- 5:08Speaker 1: going in. We come out of the half. We have
- 5:10Speaker 1: a great first drive. We end up getting stalled out,
- 5:12Speaker 1: but it's a two-possession game. We got to find a
- 5:16Speaker 1: way to hold on to that and go put somebody away,
- 5:20Speaker 1: and that's the disappointing part. I don't feel like we
- 5:23Speaker 1: let our foot off the gas offensively, at least in
- 5:26Speaker 1: terms of I stayed aggressive. We kept playing. We kept
- 5:29Speaker 1: trying to create, and be aggressive. It didn't just go
- 5:33Speaker 1: to a run, run, pass world while we were up
- 5:35Speaker 1: by 10. I didn't think that that was the kind
- 5:36Speaker 1: of game that it was. We just got to execute better.
- 5:40Speaker 1: I got to call it better. Okay, Coach. Thanks, guys.
