chance explain game hard offense playoff problem stop team trying urgency win
We had a chance to win but it was like the whole game, we just couldn't stop them. Our offense wasn't the problem tonight. It was our defense. It's hard to explain when every game is so important, especially with a team we're trying to chase. Not to have that sense of urgency like it's a playoff game, is really a shame.
answers causes consistent definitely figure great mediocre next night takes team terrible trying watched whatever
We watched a lot of film, just trying to get answers and trying to figure out what causes us to play that way. We were definitely embarrassed by a mediocre team. We don't want to be a team that's great one night and terrible the next night. We have to do whatever it takes to be a consistent team.

We're trying to give as much money and food and clothes as we can to just help people get back on their feet.
agenda coaches guys head hear help mentioned messes players responding seem stop trying valid win
Scott mentioned something to me about it. It's a valid point. There are times when the coaches kind of seem like they're always on the players and players just stop responding just because they feel as if they can do nothing right. It kind of messes with your head a bit. So when you hear it from the guys -- that our agenda is to win and we're trying to help each other and be there for each other -- it relaxes you a little bit.
raise trying
It's going really well. We're just trying to raise as much as possible.
heads steal supposed trying win
They're supposed to win at home. We were just trying to steal one here. Our heads are still up high. We're still very positive.
focused game gave hard plan playoff team trying urgency
It's hard to explain, every game is important especially with a team we're trying to chase. For us not to have that sense of urgency like it's a playoff game it's a shame. We should've been focused and executed the game plan and just gave an all-out effort, which we didn't.

happy last problems understand
We understand that we can't be happy with one or two wins. I think that was one of our problems last year.
caught easily loose test thinks
This was a big test for us. Everyone thinks you're going to win, and you can easily get caught up into that and play a loose game. It was important for us to come out focused.
gain game games opportunity playoff tomorrow treat twice
Every game is important for us. We have a big one tomorrow (against Boston) and we have the opportunity to play Philadelphia twice and gain two games on them. They're all big from here. We've got to treat each game as if its a playoff game.

Everywhere you went was home there, ... It was a real close-knit area. Everybody treated you with a lot of respect. If anything happened, there were a bunch of moms to take care of you.

We've been successful because he sees three or four people every time he penetrates. So, every time he penetrates, it's going to take a team effort to control him and keep him off the foul line.
