job needed rush
I don't think our rush got there the way we needed to. We need to do a better job.
combat five job pass run send six staff stuff tough ways
What they do is stuff the run on first down and get you in 2nd-and-long. Then you try to pass and they'll send five or six guys. They can really put you in some tough spots. It's our job as a staff to come up with ways to combat it.
doubt element good job lt passing receiver terrific utilize
When we look at our passing game, the one element we have not been able to utilize effectively is LT as a receiver. There is no doubt he has been a terrific receiver for us, and we haven't done a good enough job in getting him the ball.
background belief developing excellent good jack job line strong teaching
First and foremost, Jack is an excellent teacher. He has done a good job of developing young players. He has a strong background in line play and a strong belief in teaching fundamentals first.
coaching consistent discipline exactly issues job needs people physical putting quite understanding
It's not physical issues, it's discipline issues in our coverage, and it's not where it needs to be, quite frankly. We're not getting people where they need to be on a consistent basis. My sense is that we've got to do a better job of coaching them, and they've got do a better job of understanding exactly what it is we're putting forward.
bunch controlled great job tempo
It's not like they've been in a bunch of barnburners. They're an outstanding team. They've pretty much controlled the tempo of the game, and they do such a great job on defense.
available certainly comforting family job obviously situation takes terrific
Stephen did a terrific job for us and that's certainly comforting to us, but obviously we'd like to have Randall available to us. If he is not, his family in that situation takes priority, in my view.
aspect city ended extremely kansas played short
We were out-played. Kansas City I thought played extremely well in every aspect and we ended up on the short end of it.
confident drew eric felt good honest parker realize situation
We had the long fourth-down situation and Eric Parker and Drew make it down to the 7-yard-line, and I'll be honest with you, I realize there's no certainty, but I felt very confident with where we were. I just felt good that at the 7-yard-line we'd find a way to get it in the end zone.
catching change practice tip
We are catching everything in practice so we are going to change our tip drill. We need to change it up because what we are doing is not working.
fell short team win
We fell short of our goal, clearly, and that was to win the championship. But I wouldn't say that it is a team that underachieved.
We feel very, very comfortable with our position.
controlled huge invited last pulling today win
We controlled what we could today by pulling out a huge victory. We're still going to try to win the last two and see if we get invited when it's over. That's all we can do.
improve
We're very disappointed, but we are going to look at and see what we can do to improve for this week.
