We got our running game going a little bit, so that's a good sign for us. We ran the ball pretty good. Curtis had a really good day. He made some big runs for us, but we got behind and played that way. We could never close the gap.
We put the ball on the ground 22 times already, ... It's not running backs or receivers. It's some quarterback exchanges and just getting hit, and so we have to do a lot better job.
LaMont is having a really good year running the ball and he's had a lot of catches. He's playing good for them.
I get questioned for third-and -5, running the draw, trying to tie the game up before the half. I'm going to answer all those questions between now until the end of the season. I understand that. But the same scenario, they're on the 27-yard line, they missed a field goal. How about that?
We talked. But I knew Al was the kind of guy who every year is going to be in the running to be a head coach. He's a guy who's primed to be a head coach. He's always going to be a candidate. You want to make sure you have some kind of consistency with your offense.

They're running the ball well, and when you run the ball well, it really opens things up for you.
A lot of times when you're playing, ... your adrenaline is running so much, you get nicked and you just play. If something's wrong, you wake up sore the next morning and find out.
There are a lot of ways you can do that, and that's why I'm not saying, ... I don't want to say anything at this point.
There are 13 games left, ... We have to have a little spirit, and we have to go play.
We knew it wasn't going to be pretty at times,
We knew going in the only way he was going to get ready to play was he had to play. When you're dealing with something like that, did we think he was going to be 100 percent? No. But he had to throw the ball. He wanted to do it. We thought we brought him along right.
We got outcoached and outplayed. Put it on me.
We're going to try to fit him with a brace and see where he's at.
