Transcript
- 0:06Speaker 1: What do you make of the day offensively today?
- 0:09Speaker 2: You know, I think there's a lot of stuff that
- 0:11Speaker 2: we left out there. There's certainly plays that we want back.
- 0:15Speaker 2: But also, I mean, there's a mixture of responding to
- 0:18Speaker 2: some adversity there. And, you know, so it's going to
- 0:20Speaker 2: be one of those things. You're going to watch the film, just,
- 0:23Speaker 2: you know, this is the NFL. You know, you find
- 0:26Speaker 2: a few plays there at the end, and, you know,
- 0:27Speaker 2: maybe the result's different. It doesn't change the fact that
- 0:31Speaker 2: four quarters of the game have been played, and there's
- 0:33Speaker 2: stuff that needs to get fixed one way or another.
- 0:36Speaker 1: But after you scored, I mean, you guys had a
- 0:40Speaker 1: lot of confidence you were going to get the ball
- 0:41Speaker 1: back and try to have another chance at it.
- 0:43Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, that's the expectation. I mean, everyone had
- 0:46Speaker 2: that expectation. We were going to find a way to
- 0:47Speaker 2: go out there and win that game. That's the people
- 0:49Speaker 2: we have in our locker room. And, you know, didn't
- 0:52Speaker 2: finish the way that we wanted to. And, yeah, but,
- 0:57Speaker 2: I mean, the belief is all there. And, you know,
- 1:00Speaker 2: I really believe, you know, we were a play away
- 1:02Speaker 2: here or there from that end result being different. But.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Kudos to the commanders. They had a good game plan.
- 1:08Speaker 2: They played hard. It's a good football team over there.
- 1:10Speaker 1: You just mentioned the belief is there. What gives you
- 1:12Speaker 1: confidence this team will respond well?
- 1:14Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean, because I've seen it over and
- 1:18Speaker 2: over and over again. I've seen the way the guys
- 1:20Speaker 2: come into work. I've seen the way the guys compete.
- 1:22Speaker 2: You know, the belief is there. And so I know
- 1:25Speaker 2: that's how that locker room feels. And, you know, these things,
- 1:30Speaker 2: it's a punch to the gut without a doubt.
- 1:32Speaker 1: And it should.
- 1:33Speaker 2: You spend so much time, you put so much effort
- 1:34Speaker 2: into it, and not get the result you want, it hurts.
- 1:38Speaker 2: But all it means is going back to that grindstone,
- 1:40Speaker 2: finding ways to.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Improve, and regardless of what that scoreboard says.
- 1:45Speaker 2: It would be that same process coming in Monday and
- 1:49Speaker 2: getting back to work.
- 1:49Speaker 1: What do you think is going on in the goal-to-go
- 1:51Speaker 1: situations where you guys are not getting there? I'm not sure.
- 1:55Speaker 1: I really like that. That's something we've got to dive
- 1:57Speaker 1: into because we've got to find a way to finish,
- 1:58Speaker 1: and we've got to.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Find a way to finish down there that's too many
- 2:01Speaker 2: plays being run inside the five without getting touchdowns.
- 2:04Speaker 1: So certainly something that we need to find a way
- 2:08Speaker 1: to get in the end zone.
- 2:09Speaker 2: As an offense, it's unacceptable, and we've got to find
- 2:14Speaker 2: a way to finish drives. What did you make of
- 2:16Speaker 2: Sam's performance, and did you find that as the game progressed,
- 2:18Speaker 2: he settled in, got more comfortable, improved?
- 2:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought he did a really good job.
- 2:22Speaker 2: I mean, there's obviously going to be plays that he
- 2:24Speaker 2: wants back, but, man, to come back and do it,
- 2:27Speaker 2: you've got to realize this is this was like his
- 2:30Speaker 2: first game of the year. You know, he played five plays.
- 2:33Speaker 2: And so I thought he did a great job. I mean,
- 2:36Speaker 2: it just seemed like, you know, the command was there,
- 2:39Speaker 2: made some great throws, scrambling in the pocket, extending plays. And, yeah,
- 2:44Speaker 2: so there's going to be some stuff there. I'm sure
- 2:45Speaker 2: that he's going to want back, as we all do.
- 2:46Speaker 2: We're all going to have plays that we, you know,
- 2:49Speaker 2: wish we could have done better on. But I think
- 2:51Speaker 2: overall he played a really good game. Awesome.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Thank you, guys. Thank you.
