downs plays third
Our third downs were terrible. We have to make more plays on third down. We have to get better.
chance couple found game gave good lose plays showing start time
We have to play better. If we think we're a good defense, we better start showing it. We didn't make plays when we had to. We gave up a couple of big plays. We had a chance to win the game. We were in the game the whole time and found a way to lose at the end.
ball bouncing great plays unless
That was unbelievable. It was awesome. I've never been a part of something like that. The game's usually over unless you get some great plays like we did, but the ball was bouncing our way that year.
defense good plays start stepping stop thinking
We have to stop thinking we're a good defense and start stepping up and do it. Two plays killed us. No excuses.
couple gives plays sure talk team
We sure do talk a lot for a team that gives up a couple big plays every game,
flying plays
We're flying to the ball. We're making plays when we have to.
ball created direction ground seems zone
We think it's possible. We get a lot of takeaways. The ball seems like it's bounced in our direction right now. We've got to get those balls. We haven't created a lot of fumbles so far. We've got to get the ball on the ground and try to get in the end zone that way.
ball chance nice rolling
It would be nice to give us a chance to get the ball rolling and get a little confidence.
gotten looks mean prove talk team until
Things have gotten better on defence. It looks like our whole team has gotten better. We just have to go out there and do it on Sundays. We can talk all we want, but until we go out there and prove it, it doesn't mean anything.
game goal healthy number people super teammates though win
Even though you're not in the game, you still like to win and see your teammates do well, so it was a little frustrating. But at the same time, we got out of this game healthy with the people we need to get to the Super Bowl, and that's the number one goal we wanted to take into the playoffs.
We don't give up a lot of yards, just too many big plays.
doubted earn good great people playoffs respect win
We had to win in the playoffs to earn respect and we didn't do that. So all of the people who doubted us, I guess, were right. We may be a good team, but we're not a great team.
biggest coaches guys hard league nice players recognized saw talent
We've got some good, young talent on this team, and it's nice to see they got recognized for their play, because they're not the biggest names. There are a lot of guys out there who probably get more recognition from the media, but these guys go out there and play hard every week, and they put it on film, and the players around the league and the coaches around the league saw that. That's why they're going.
happened hated looking top turn wish
I wish it would've happened sooner, because I've hated looking up from the bottom. But it's our turn to be on top for a while now.
