00:00 I mean, I felt like obviously they ran it better than us.
00:05 They protected better than us.
00:07 Our quarterback was under a lot more dress than theirs.
00:14 You can point to a number of things.
00:15 I mean, we had some opportunities.
00:17 The 99-yard drive at the end of the half was disappointing.
00:22 And then not being able to get off the field when we cut it to ten.
00:29 So I think the mood would be disappointing, not discouraged.
00:34 But nonetheless, you'd certainly like to finish on a brighter note than that.
00:41 Yeah, I reminded them, just remember how this feels.
00:44 Because it's something that you spend so
00:49 much time in working towards a common goal.
00:55 And then when you fall short of that, it just doesn't sit right.
01:01 It can't with anyone.
01:03 Listen, I thought he hung in there, had some tough snaps, got hit quite a bit.
01:07 I think he had five sacks, nine pressures.
01:12 But overall, listen, he battled.
01:15 I'll watch the film and we'll have a chance to see more of it.
01:18 I'm not quite sure what our third down numbers are.
01:20 I do know, shoot, at one point we were third and 11 plus like four times.
01:25 I think we averaged third and eight.
01:28 I thought we got beat up front.
01:30 I was disappointed how we played up front, I'll be honest with you.
01:33 And I expected us to be able to run the ball better.
01:39 And certainly, we did a lot to nudge and
01:44 bump and help ourselves in protection.
01:48 And yet, obviously not enough.
