Pete Carroll: "We Couldn't Get It Done" · Seahawks Press Pass

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Well, this was about as unfamiliar as we can get here,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: coming out here East and playing a game on the
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: road like this and then not being able to play
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: football where we need to. It was a terrific day
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: for them. John had his team ready to go and
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: they did a great job. They kind of waited until
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: there were some opportunities and they took advantage of him.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Game kind of went back and forth for a while.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: They're early, which kind of thought it could happen, and
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: then we didn't handle what happened right before the half
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: very well and didn't take advantage of the turnover that
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: we had, and so instead of wind up fourteenth six
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: or fourteen ten, you know, they get the ball back
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: and they get points, and it just wasn't the right
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: way to finish the half for us. And then they
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: just they went to work and we didn't stop them,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: and we couldn't make any first downs and couldn't convert
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: on third down. And so it's just a really hard,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: long day against a really good team, and they took
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: it to us. So I gotta give them a lot
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: of credit. Well, we have to convert, you know on
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: third downs, which is everybody we got rushed today pretty good.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Now they rushed this and mix their stuff really well,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: and it was hard, like they've been on everybody. But
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: we just have to, you know, find her ways to
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: make first downs. But I think we were one for
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: twelve and third downs. It's you know, you can't you
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: can't play offense like that and expect anything. You know,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: it's as hard as it gets. I don't think this
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: is about Geno at all, that's what you you know.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I think this is about our football team. Did not
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: did not answer the bell here. We did, couldn't get
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: it done, and we came in here to slug it
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: out and they did a better job. We did. Miss
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: all of us when they're rushing the pastor that's not
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: that's not Geno. This is not the one guy deal here. Yeah,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: I'm concerned about that. Yeah, I'm concerned about it. The
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: one the fumble, that's a pass rush deal. You know,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the interception, you know, they threw it up and the
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: guy had it's been making all the intercept just made
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: another one, you know. But that's not the direction for
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: us to be going in, if you know it. It
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: up until this game, it took us the first place.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Whatever the heck we've been doing and uh we played
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: like a like you know, we didn't play like the
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: first place team today. So with those kind of turnovers
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: you can't it's really hard to win. What was running game?
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I mean they have a good one. Yeah, we couldn't
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: tackle them the second half. You know, we just didn't
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: tackle them. And uh it shouldn't have been any different.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: You know, the big run that Lamar has early gives them,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: you know, a good boosting yards. But then after that,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: it's just basic plays and we didn't we didn't get
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: him on the ground. And uh that's the part I
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: then I need to look at the most. That's one
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: of the most concerned about that. Why that that happened
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: like that because you went uh mental layers. Yeah, that
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: that's stinks. That stinks. That's bad football. DJ Dallas hurt
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: his shoulder. Yeah, I don't know how bad, but he
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: hurt his shoulder. Mentioned on that or no, he overthrew
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: it and and I don't I don't know it. Tiler
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: didn't think he had a chance to get the balls
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: on I know, but it wound up. Uh, you know,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: a really nice play uh by uh their guy and uh,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: but I wish you would we would have contested it.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know that he could or not. We didn't.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know how far overthrown it was, but I
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: know he couldn't get to it. Can you? Uh after
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a loss like this, just put it aside because it
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: was that technic ratings were so good? Yeah? It it
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: And what I what I'm telling our guys is this
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: is about the discipline that it takes to go to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: the next the next challenge. We talked always like that,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: whether it's a big winner or a big loss or whatever,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: that this circumstance of what happened a week before, it's
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the discipline that takes t t to to move on.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And uh so that's the challenge. It isn't this game's
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: already over with and done. We can't do anything about
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: this one. It's what are we gonna do when we
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: come back on Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday to get
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: back on track? And that this to fine us. I
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: would like that this game was maybe a market that
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: this is where things shifted and we came right back
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: and got back on track, and we see us come
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: back to who we are and so we'll see this
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: is the big it's a big deal. So I gotta
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: do a good job of them, and hopefully with the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: leadership that we have, I know that we will get
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the right message out there. And then we got we
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: got to act on it. And it's a very big
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: challenge and so we'll see if we can pull it off. Yeah.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Huge play, Yeah, huge play. And he just continues, he
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: continues to do stuff in every game. He's really a
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: good football player, and he's it shows it's hard to
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: do what he just did in the last six weeks,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: you know, and and uh, he's just getting warmed up.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's just so young and so fresh. You know,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: he's just getting started. So it's exciting to know that.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I wish we could have had, you know, some more
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: contributions like that. The same shoulder that he had hurt
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: that that's been bothering them. He hit it pretty good.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: They didn't think it was It was kind of like
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: a re injury. You know, you're you're you're writing game,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: look like earlier you were trying to get that going. Yeah,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: we wanted to. We wanted to and and uh, you know,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: you guys know you know this line of thinking, if
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: you don't convert, you don't get the chances and you're
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: off the field, and so, uh, no matter how much
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: you want to do something, it doesn't matter when you
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: when you get to go sit down, you can't you know,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: you can't call your plays on a bench. So we
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: got to get to get off some some winning third
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: down plays and we got to do better than that.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: They were great at it today on their side. We
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: weren't everything else. Thanks
