Speaker 1 (00:00):
How do you as an individual and then you guys
as a team process a result like this.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
If they're dominating them for so much of the game.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
We just can't have that in the fourth quarter. I mean,
that's That's the simplest thing I can say. They they
we didn't finish in the fourth fourth quarter?

Speaker 4 (00:23):
What changed that change? I couldn't tell you. I don't know.
I don't know. Same same people, same cause, same. I
don't know. Did you feel a.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Gas a little bit as that game went on, the
altitude or anything of that nature.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
I don't know. I can't speak for how everybody else
feel you personally? That uh not really? You know, So
I got the save the amount snaps mm hmm.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
I just gotta finish, man. I can't give up thirty
three points in the fourth court. What are just That's
not good?

Speaker 4 (01:02):
Thanks.

Speaker 5 (01:02):
After giving up the thirty and them taking the lead,
you guys came down, you know, Jackson let drive and
you guys went ahead. It's what thirty five, thirty six
seconds left, thirty one thirty Yeah, after the kick on
thirty one, you know that exactly? They had no timeouts.
Did you think, Okay, this is our chance to finally
finish this once in for all.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
I mean, yeah, we thought that earlier in the fourth.
It's caught some good passes. You can't make that up.
You got clocked the ball with two seconds.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
That's what happened.

Speaker 5 (01:38):
Do you think you think one play and you're win.
You know, somebody gets a sack, somebody gets a deflection.
You know, you made so many plays in this game,
and it seems like you came one short.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
I can't say. I think it's more than just one play.
You know, it's it was I don't know how many
plays they had, but it's every play isn't impactful. You
never know which play is going to be that play.
So I just gotta go go play hard, and we
got at that one.

Speaker 4 (02:09):
Would you like a defensive player there? I mean, it's
kind of similar to doubts Dave said.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
It was a different play called with the first pass
that they hit to kind of get in your field
goal range. Would you like to bring pressure in those
kind of situations with the defensive line? Where you would
you like to bring pressure? You do with you know,
rushing three or four whatever the call is in that regard?
Where do you stand on that?

Speaker 4 (02:34):
Leave that to the coaches.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Was there a point in the game in the fourth
quarter where you felt it spiraling?

Speaker 4 (02:42):
Not really.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
I always felt like we could get a stop whenever
we was on the field. They just made the plays
they needed to make. I don't know, man, We've.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Been in this spot a few times where it's, uh,
you know, we're asking you about an improbable loss. I'm
wondering if this one hurts anymore. It feels any different
because of what was at stake. If you win, like
you say, you're three and four, you've won three out
of four.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
Maybe trades, playoff, all that stuff.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Yeah, this one, this one probably hurt Morgan the other losses. Yeah,
this hurt. This hurt you assimilated DAWs.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Does it remind you of that or.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
Do two separate games? Yeah, this one hurt. This one hurt.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
When Jordan asked you the question about the for the
coverage or the rush that was it took a while
you paused. There was a long pause there. Do you
feel right now defensively, you guys are being put in
the best position to have success in two games.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
We was putting the best position all game. They just
made the place contested catches. I mean, you saw what happened.
Everything was contested it.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
M m hmmmmmm, mhmm
