against backs fourth games hopefully previous pull road three tough
Psychologically, at least for our confidence, that was huge. We got in that fourth quarter, and the previous three games we weren't able to pull it out. Our backs are still against the wall. It's going to be a tough road ahead. Hopefully this does something for us.
few football fourth games last plays reach resolve shows three today weeks win
We scored 14 in the fourth quarter, and the last few weeks we haven't been able to do that. I think it just shows the resolve of this team. We had three very frustrating weeks -- games that were very much in our reach -- and today we made the plays we need to make to win the football game.
best games great quite teams
That was quite a while ago. But it's a great memory, one of the best games I've ever been part of, one of the best teams I've ever been part of.
against feeling games good halfway hard overall played pleased position team tough won
We're not in any position to make any proclamations because we're only halfway through. All we can say is we're pleased with where we're at, 5-3. It could be better; it could be worse. You are what you are and we're a 5-3 team halfway through. Probably the overall feeling is that we feel pretty good about ourselves. We've been in tough games and won them. We've played against good defenses and offenses, and for the most part we've done very well. But it's hard to say at this point.
critical four games great guys hard last realize riding season tough worked year
Our season is riding on this game. The guys have worked real hard all year to get to this place. From where we were at 5-6, it's pretty remarkable. All of that being said and as great as these last four games have been, if we don't get this one, it would be tough to end the season that way. We have to realize how critical this is.
best case games obviously playoffs
You need your best games in the playoffs to keep going. That obviously was not the case today.
games good great guy purpose ready regular role time
Patrick is a great guy and a very good player. He's a good friend, and I think he's going to have a great year. The backup's role is to always be ready. That's the purpose of preseason, to get ready for the regular season, so I feel good about the games I had and the time I was in there.
break calls felt games
These things even out, they really do, and sometimes you get a break. I felt like we got a break with Sellers that week, I really do. There's going to be games where you don't get the calls that you want.
ball convert downs hands needed third
We just needed to keep the ball in our hands and convert those third downs and get some points. But we just didn't do it.
difficult great group guys hope work
It would be my hope that we could keep this group intact, which is difficult to do these days. I think we have guys with great character, work ethic, attitude; all the things that you'd want.
correct crazy
It was a little crazy out there tonight. We need to be more sharp. It was a little sloppy, but we will correct it.
ball bearing safety tried
The safety was bearing down on him. So I tried to get the ball up so he could make a play, and he did.
belt stayed year
There's some things that have changed. There's some things that have stayed the same. But I think we're a better offense. We have a year under our belt with this system.
biggest far guy playing run throw
Santana made some big plays. The biggest thing as a quarterback, when you are playing with a guy with that much speed, is you can't underthrow him. You have to throw it out there about as far as you can because he is going to run and get it.
