Pete Carroll: "We Have A Lot Of Work To Do" · Seahawks Press Pass

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: That was a really frustrating start for us.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: The Rams did really well. They did. They took care
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: of the ball and did a nice job.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: And you know, I have a lot of respect for
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Sewan and the job that he does, and they did
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: a heck of a job today. First half, we had
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: the ball four times and we got in a scoring position.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: We didn't get our touchdowns out of the drives, but
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: we missed a field goal and it felt like like
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: we were moving and we were in control of that
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: part of it. But the second half, we just couldn't
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: get any first downs. We couldn't make the ball go
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: and it got harder as the game went on, and
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: we didn't do well the other side of the ball.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: It was a third down disaster for us. You know,
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: eleven for seventeen and it's a great job by Stafford.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's just that good. But we gave him opportunities.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: We didn't get heat on him at all, and we
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: needed to generate it.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: So I look at.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: A little bit of misjudgment on my part that you
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: know that we would be able to do things we've
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: been doing and we'd be able to play a good
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: football game, and it didn't work.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Out that way.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: We needed to pressure him more and find ways to
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: get the heat on them to cover them up and
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: get off the darn field. So this is a really,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: it's a really challenge. It's a big challenge for us
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: to bounce back and look what we're going against. You know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: we're gonna go against one of the hottest teams in
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: the world right now coming up in Detroit, and.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: We'll see how that goes.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: But now it's about us and digging back into it
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: because we've done a ton of the right stuff all
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: the way throughout. I've been telling you that how the
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: preparation has gone. But when it matched up and it
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: came time, we weren't able to get off the field
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: like we like we thought we would be able to.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: And so the game goes their way and they did
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: a nice job of taking care of it. Didn't give
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: us a football other than the block kick, and that's
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: that's that's enough to play a good football game if
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: they if they could take care of the ball.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: They did, so we had a lot of work to do.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Charles crossing Lucas.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Charles got like a spraying big toe and the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: actually did from what I heard, actually didn't look bad,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: but we'll see, but he you know, he felt something
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: and so we had to look at him. Abe's knee
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: just acted up on him again. He doesn't have a
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: knee injury. He just is the same knee that we
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: rested him on during camp and it just got really
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: sore during the game and he couldn't fire the way
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: he needed to, and so we had to get him
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: out of there.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: So I don't know what to tell you about that
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: one half. The first half, you guys seemed a pretty
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: good shape. I mean, you have to leave that.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it felt like we had you know, kind of
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: felt that we gave up the first drive and then
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: we got off the field the rest of the the
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: opportunities in the in the first half, and so it's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: thirteen to seven and it looks like we're in a
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: regular football game and we're ready to go. So we
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: came out to go for and to go for to win,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: you know, and play good football and be aggressive and
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: all of that. But we didn't execute the way that
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: we had counted on and and.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: So you know, we didn't finish it the way we
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: need to.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: And so that that's that's really obvious and why that happened.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: You know, we got to go back to work and
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: figure out and see what we can do to help
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: our guys.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: And that's why I have I have a big role
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: in this. I've got to make sure that I'm helping
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: our guys.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: On defense and making sure that the assessments that we
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: make on offense, you know, we can count on better
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: than we did.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: We just didn't execute like we thought we could.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Only two quarterback hits on thirty eight dropbacks.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: When he interviewed the lack of pressure, really, you know,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: we didn't pressure. We didn't blitz a lot.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: We did some and uh but he got rid of
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: the football really well, and we needed to. It's all aspects.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: We didn't cover him as tight as we needed to
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: get him a hold of football, and we didn't rush
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: enough to disrupt him. And he's a great thrower and
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: if you give him that kind of time, he can
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: tear you up.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: And he did. You know, he had a great day
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: to day.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: The offensive issues in the in the in the second
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: half in particular, I guess it's starkly different to me
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the way we played the first half and second half,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: and we were in there talking about it, right now,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: you know, trying.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: To figure out how it got. It got so uh,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: you know, so erratic. We weren't we weren't on it.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: We didn't convert, and we didn't get get the ball moving,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: and we didn't run the ball.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: We didn't anything.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: We did nothing in the second half, and we were trying,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: we were calling the stuff, and we had things that
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: we thought we could do and we weren't able to
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: get it done. For an offense, when both tackles go
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: out and quick session like that, you know, it's about
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: as far as it gets, you know, when both guys
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: go you know, and we'll see how el Stone and
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Jakie did. But you know, you could see at the
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: end we were in a little bit protected.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Where you thought on the personal foul in the game?
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Party, what was your thought on the personal fouls from
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: your team at the end of the game. I thought
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: we lost our minds a little bit. And and we'll
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: talk about that. That shows you the frustration and based
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: on the expectations that we were gonna be better than
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: not in that situation. And I I don't like seeing
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: this look like that looks terrible, and we'll talk about that.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not that's that's not something that I'm concerned about.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: And we've gotten up in that situation and we're gonna
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: make better decisions than that. I don't know what you're
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: doing during when the guys are coming out free game,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: But did you pay attention to Bobby's ovation he got?
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: As matter of fact, it did. Yeah. I thought that
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: was amazing. I felt it.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: I felt the response to the fans to him. I
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: think he played a really good ball game today. I
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: couldn't tell all of it, but I thought he played
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: really well today and it was meant a lot to him.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: I thought he did a really good job of being
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: poised about it, like you would hope and expect he
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: would playing his old team and all that.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Kind of stuff.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: But I thought that was an extraordinary statement by our
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: fans of appreciation and love for the guy that you know,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: giving so much to this program and all that, and
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: he deserves every bit of it.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: And then I thought it was a perfect moment Georgian
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: and his first game back, and he did pretty good.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: It seemed like I guess we got to see how
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: we did coverage wise, because they did hit a lot
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: of stuff inside and we put a lot of his
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: own stuff and mixed mixed our owns up and we
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: weren't able to get in front of any balls, you know,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: But I don't know.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: You know, I got a look at the film though
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: it's a great counts. We saw we rest him a
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: little bit, you know, he added up some plays and
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: so we got him out of there. Kind of what
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: we were thinking what happened. So, you know, Devin was
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: ready to.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Play and all that, but it was it's a great
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: accomplishment for him to get back.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Apparently they call Trey Brown on the third down?
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Did you get a good look at that at all?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: I did, did you, guys? I mean, I like that,
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: like some information on it. What did you think Tray
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Brown's say, I don't. I look at the film with
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: how the team responded all off season increases. How surprised?
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Were you really surprised?
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I am surprised, and I'm disappointed that that we
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: weren't cleaner.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: You know this thirteen to six. You know, it's no
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: big deal. We're in pretty good shape and moved.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: The ball well in the first half, and I really
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: felt like we should be able to take the next
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: step and take control of the football game and I
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: thought we were in great shape to do that. It's
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: shocking to me now that that's we weren't able to
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: take take advantage of that. You know, I don't care
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: what the score is at halftime, you know, but I
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: like being ahead, which we were, and I like.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: The fact that we moved it.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: We also, they scored on the first drive and they
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: didn't scored any other drive, so we felt like we
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: had a real shot. I don't think we were cocky
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: at all. We surely didn't talk like that, but we
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: didn't respond well enough.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Tyler was exact a perfect cushion.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: But yeah, fine, he was examined, but he was fine.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: My favorite was had his knee looked at, but he
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: finished the game, so he was alright.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: That's all we had. And then ye, okay,
