He's been there. It's not a case of having to do too much and trying to put too much on your shoulders. He did a nice job of stepping out of the pocket and hitting check-downs. That's the thing that I liked, his composure and his poise. You could just see he was aware of what was going on around him, waiting things out. He's just being the leader that he is.

We had the opportunity, even in overtime. It's very frustrating at this point, walking away with a defeat. We knew coming in that it was going to be a grind and it turned out that way.
