analyze best guys mike situation
There's not that many guys who have been in this situation. The one guy I know is Mike Shanahan, and I don't think he'll tell me at this point. I think you have to analyze the situation and do what's best for your team.
early fourth kept panic played spirits third
We got down early but we didn't panic on the sideline. We kept our spirits up and we played a lot better in the second, third and early in the fourth quarter. We made some big plays. We got the turnovers. We got the momentum.
balls gotten knocked loose win
We've knocked a lot of balls loose and had some fumbles on the ground, but we just haven't gotten them. We've got to keep pressing and persevering because that will not win for us down the stretch.

I was proud of our defense because they held the fort and allowed us to play patiently.

You just have to play football. You have to read your keys and believe it, and you can't relax. You have to be on top of your job whether you're front line on the kick returns, on the punt return or fake field goals. It's just part of your job that you have to read your keys, and you can't assume that anything is going to take place.
ball balls dropped drove field finish missed people slow
We drove the ball and just didn't finish some drives. If people want to make us go down the field at a slow pace, we can do that when we don't have all the penalties, dropped balls and missed assignments.

We'll investigate them all. We do every year. Most years we say the cost is not going to add up to what we're going to get, but you never know.
