Speaker 1

Coach again, how difficult is it when you fought this hard? I feel like I watched a heavyweight fight and not come up with the win. It's exactly how I felt after this football game and really going into this game from the standpoint of you know, the NFC's Cowboys Eagles, it's always always a fight to the end. Um. Both games this year have come right down to the end. And you know, it's unfortunate that we're on the on

the short end of this one again. Um, But but there there is no quit I mean the fact that our guys compete in battle right to the end. Um. It definitely is a learning opportunity, a moment for our guys, for our coaches, Um, that we're gonna learn from. We'll get ready for the next one. And and uh, you know, just keep this team together. Speaking of that battle, the offense didn't get going for a long time, but you really moved the ball well in the fourth quarter. What

was the difference? I think I think a lot of things, but I think number one, Um, you know, we found we found some matchups that we could kind of spot, you know, uh in on their defense, and Dallas made a couple of huge, huge catches obviously is unfortunate though you know the PI I guess, yeah, that was that was unfortunate. But he made a couple of nice catches.

Alshan made a couple of nice catches, and you know, and and we were able to do some things with the play action game in the second half that really sort of even though we were running the ball very well, it's still sort of UM kept their d line you know at bay and and uh just opened up a couple of windows force. Do you think when you got into the the overtime, the fact that your defense was on the field for so long, do you think that

hurt in the overtime? I think it can, um, you know, quite frankly, they're they're on the field so long and and and it's tough, and especially a team that you know it's gonna run the ball at you. It's uh, it's it's hard, um. But we were just looking for for any stop, one stop. We you know, even right there before the end of end of regulation, you know, a couple of sacks and they just dug down and dug deep and and found a way to make a play.

And we just needed that in overtime and just unfortunately we didn't get it. You've got three games left. How do you handle this team moving forward this week going out to LA Well, um, you know, number one, we gotta we just gotta get back to work. Um, we're still not necessarily out of out of the postseason, even though you know, we know people are probably gonna, uh kind of ride us off, but um, it is what it is right now. But but we've we've got to

focus on next week. We gotta get ready for next week. We got our long trip again, and and just quite frankly, um, roll up our sleeves and go to work, you know, and and and just just continue to grind. Thanks coach, Thank you,
