 What do you got Jimmy They didn't you know give me any interpretation they just said that obviously what that is is it felt like we hit the Snapper in the head or neck area They announced strong was it tart? I don't know again. You had better view than I did. I saw a quick replay. So What was your take after seeing that replay that that You know and we're trying to block the kick that that's all it was. I don't know have to Take a closer look at it. See what it was, you know, it was a quick replay If we hit him in the head or knock, you know, I mean they they felt like we did I mean, that's not like we would lost the game guys. I mean we can sit here and talk about one play like What else you got? Couldn't block them couldn't block them couldn't move them You know tried some different schemes and you know give them credit but uh You know, we we got to find ways to run the football Like a lot of the things about as much as it was You know giving up big plays and not getting any turnovers and and not stopping the run So I think we're all all four phases Didn't do a good enough job today being coaching and special teams offense and defense He's lost the physical physical battle today Yeah, I mean the numbers would would say so, you know, the numbers would say so obviously the way we rushed the ball The way that we stopped the run. I don't think we tackled well, you know, we weren't able to to get into any rhythm In the running game, so You know, I felt like there were times where things were we're working and clicking And then you know, weren't able to continue to sustain that I thought we we'll see how we covered kicks on tape Just that tackling or what did you see there? I mean just You know understanding that, you know, we're gonna have to be able to fit fit some runs and play post or split safety defense against teams that You know have the skilled players that they do You know, somebody's got to win somebody's got to tackle, you know, there's a lot of mistackles out there today from from first view How hard is it to defend burrows scrambling to giving everything else you have to defend? I mean we got to affect the quarterback better than what we did today I hope we didn't think we were going to show up and sack them nine times you know with that just We didn't do enough, you know to affect the quarterback You know, I'd say not enough that would be my first answer Jill but You know continuing to progress and make the play down the field. I know that he probably left one out there On a check that Ryan had I think on the third down um They blitzed us and Ryan, you know gave him a chance but Really proud of the way that he bounced back and wasn't frustrated. I mean, obviously he was disappointed But to go make the play down the field that was huge What was the thought process kicking versus leaving the offense on the field on my last fourth down there in the court court um just trying to You know secure some points and get a stop. That's what the thought process was and you know and um Fourth and five we were trying to just make it closer for for Caleb, you know the third and long um And I think the process was that we could you know, we could get it stopped and You know have a chance to either win the game or or tie it. That's what the thought process was Would you see in the play challenge? I thought I saw the ball move and Figured either way it was probably a decent decent time to reset the defense We were kind of been scrambling a little bit so You know, they didn't have a great view upstairs. That one's on me not stretch and You know, there wasn't you know, it wasn't really a replay and I just figured it Either way we tried to need to calm down and try to force him to kick a field ball How did Caleb handle things today? Well, I thought well, you know, I mean we had the one that You know, unfortunately, uh did it but you know other than that. I thought he stepped in and had a you know Was ready to go. I'm excited to To to get out there and kick for us today Yeah, like they always when we miss them, it's a bad snap a bad hold and a bad kick Make sure you write all three of those down. That's what happens We didn't make it But sometimes it's something with the operation the other time he just pulled it. So that's what I was trying to get you about Maybe I just think we we missed the kick You know, we missed the kick that I killed missed that one, but that was you know When we used to miss them, you know, we went through all those kickers that one year every time we'd miss one You know, I'd blame it the snapper to hold and it kind of The kickers like that, but I know you like to talk about the players a play But did you think you were gonna have been today? Was that kind of a laugh? Ben wasn't available today, jimmy so You know, we have to be ready everybody has to be ready when they walk in the building in a week to To be ready to play as a starter to be ready to play in the game Things changed throughout the week. You know, we get 48 guys Sometimes we bring guys up for the practice squad some guys sometimes things happen late in the week So, you know, everybody has to be ready to go On a hitting touchdown, does McCreary need to play that more physically? Was it too physical by the offense in your estimate? I don't know looked like everybody told me to ref reached at it Maybe his hip was itching and he reached at his flag and then decided not to throw it. I don't know but I mean, I think we have to try to You know, obviously go and play as physical as we can without, you know You play the ball and you get to be a little bit more physical, but I mean, I think we just the guy made a play Yeah, just gotta be gotta be cleaner in the red zone Obviously it's something we pride ourselves on and put a lot of focus and importance on, you know, throughout the season and today we didn't execute well enough Yeah, there's overall we just didn't make enough plays down there, you know, we got down there a few times and You know had had some opportunities, but you know, just didn't make enough plays End of the half not being able to get points there and kind of finish out that drive I mean it was a little frustrating, but you know, we did a good job of moving the ball down the field and Yeah, at the same time, you know as an offense, you know, we want to be able to get in the end zone there They did a good job of of, you know, kind of playing soft and holding us out there at the end But yeah, we'd love to come away with points right there I'll take a look at the tape, you know, we we knew they were going to be physical and big up front And won up us a lot put a bunch of guys on the line of scrimmage And that's what they did. I don't think that was a surprise to anybody We'll have to take a look at the tape and see exactly what was going on up there A team that's really successful in the run when you're not on a day like today, how difficult does that make it in the passing game? I mean we saw that some opportunities, you know, we made some plays down the field I thought we did some good things in the passing game You know made some plays some guys made the plays down the field for me trailing On the big one down the field. I did some other good things on some underneath passing game. So Um Yeah, overall, we just got to be cleaner, but you know, I think there was opportunities there Yeah, it got tweaked a little bit, uh, just kind of nature of what it is, you know, just hit hit the wrong way Um, and and you can tweak it at any moment What he's capable of doing and that can you kind of speak just to that play and him going up and getting the ball for it there Yeah, it was a great job by him. Um No, I had to uh to make sure the backside corner wasn't falling off into that into that zone and um The guy was kind of on his on his heels at that point So just try to get my chance to go up and make a play and he did that You know, he's shown that multiple times, you know in practice and a few times in the games not so far So, you know, a lot of confidence going his way I had one earlier in the in the first half if I just had a half a second longer to get the ball off clean We're gonna have a an opportunity, um, you know down the field. So You know, he's done a good job not only on on the down the field stuff for us, but understanding What we're doing underneath, you know, he was a part of a few checks today and did a good job in some of the checks So, um, you know, I think his confidence is growing and my confidence in him is definitely growing How much is boat trailing and she kind of Earned her trust over the course of the season but the same flow though when we're starting to make the big plays in the basket Yeah, no question I have a ton of confidence in both of those guys as well as the other guys, you know Robert and and Austin and Nick Westbrook as well. So, um, you know The more those guys start making plays and of course as a quarterback gives you a lot of confidence to, uh, to put a ball In their direction and have faith that they're going to make a play for you The team obviously coming off is probably the best offensive performer against the Packers How much was six games to go? You guys need to maybe find consistency to kind of Into the postseason with some momentum. Yeah, every game is a little bit different, you know We just have to uh to go out and try to execute one play at a time, you know, every every run is not going to be a home run I want to be efficient in the run game and then, you know, take advantage of opportunities that arise in the pass game So, um, like I said, we did did some good things today Just have to be cleaner and overall as an offense make more plays and finish those drives with touchdowns How comfortable are you guys right now 10 10 13 13 games like this into the second half? I mean, yeah, comfortable. Yeah, I Uh, we're trying to go out and win a game no matter what the score is whether it's I mean a low scoring game or high scoring game our job is to go go score more points than the other team So, um, at the end of the day, that's what it comes down to is is finding way to score points and put more points on the board than the other team I mean finishing drives could help, you know, just being able to get in the end zone when we're down there And we had some opportunities where we we stubbed our toe a little bit and then stop drives that had chances to keep going So, um, just overall like I keep saying I sound like a broken record But just got to be cleaner and make more plays consistently throughout the game Yeah, it's unusual, uh, we put a lot of focus and attention and practice Down in the resident pride ourselves on being good down there and today we did an execute ball For maybe a two minute draw and then flag and pretty much games over Yeah, I was a crushing moment, you know, I was talking through two minute adjustments on the sideline with my receivers Had a lot of confidence that we were going to go down there and You know get a touchdown and you either kick it to tired or go for two to win it You know, depending on what variable wanted to do so a ton of confidence in our group and um, definitely on the sideline there And then, you know, what happened happened and uh, it's definitely, uh, you know crushing feeling Were they doing something particularly well on defense today? It looks like it was probably tough going as you might have had all year You know, they executed we didn't I think had a plan It came in to execute it and We didn't do our double in the run game. It's a rare thing for you guys But do you think they wound up being the more physical team? I would think so because You know, we just couldn't get none started in the run game and like I said, they had a plan They came in to execute it and they played better than we did I mean you just go back to work Watch the film learn from it go back to work focus on improving focus on getting better Another game coming up next Sunday. Um, learn from this one as you get back to work I mean they listen they go some and I mean they shot the gaps with the backers, but in the day We got rules. We got things You know to to to block that and do what we need to do, but as collectively we didn't do our job Which difference does Ben make what he's in there with his experience playing center? I mean, yeah, I mean being smart. Um, you know, it ends out with his offense Um, and um, he's a a big part of what we do And um, you know, we went out today. So I mean, I went no excuse We just had to execute better and we locked in all 11 of us And it was a long season. How much do the losses motivate you how how upset should this team be about this? Yeah, this one definitely um, you know, it hurts, but At the end of the day, you know, you've got to learn and grow from it And like I said, and you know come in tomorrow and Watch the film and see what we need to correct and fix and get better and then focus on improving And so the next one you're all your way to the end zone then the ball got punched out there How long you want to carry that and like, you know as you look back on that what went wrong I can't harp on that. Um, you know, thank god trailers run to the ball. We end up scoring. I gotta have better ball security No excuses about me got to carry the ball better be more attentive for where You know where the defense is at but you gotta carry the ball high and tight You know, it's what you're supposed to do as a running back and You know got to learn from it be better next time Frustrating that this team which has been so good in the red zone struggled today I think it was over three and inside the 20 Yeah, definitely stress rating and we're gonna get down there. You want to get points Um, and you know, we strung some plays together to get down there Just couldn't you know get in the end zone and you know, that's that means we got get back to work and focus on getting better Something about this team For you guys, I think this is the last three in a row. They've got me and they've all kind of worked the same I don't know Just You know, they've been playing better the last three times we faced them Um, if you see them again, you know, try to play better the next time But yeah, I know that's definitely you know back in my mind and you know, it's got to move on from them
