Um, you know, we were calling a play, trying to get some man coverage and they zoned it off. Um. You know when I got back to earth, to look like Sean Lee had his back defended or back turned to him. So I was just trying to give him a chance and somehow I threw it to him and he made a great play. What's going on with the Um? You know, if we knew, we wouldn't be having those problems. Um, you know, it's one of those things. Obviously. I think
we're all really frustrated right now. Um. You know, but you know we're not gonna give up. We're not gonna quit. You know, we're gonna get in there on Tuesday, figure out what we need to get corrected, you know, move on, because that's all we can do. And what happened on the phone exchange, Um, you know, I'm not sure it was pretty loud at that point, but you know, I hadn't really started my cadence shed and next thing, you know, the all hit me. Um, So I think it was
just a little bit early. So it's a little long time since you've played a lot of football out are you rusty? Do you do you feel like you're pressing at times, do you feel out of rhythm? Um? I might feel a little bit of all three of those after tonight. You know, tonight was pretty tough, you know, but I think the biggest thing for us since an offense.
You know, you've just got to establish a rhythm, you know, when you go three and out, three and out, three and out, you know, when you're not converting on third down, or not giving yourself a chance to convert on third down because you're in third and long. Um, you know, it's just tough. What do you think it is right now? When you're a game? Preseason obviously went really well trained, came et cetera. Yeah, and some stumbles up. Um, yeah, I'm not sure. You know. It's one of those things.
I'm gonna have to get back to work on Tuesday. Look at the tape, you know, see what went wrong, See what I need to get corrected. Um, you know, I think it is fixable. I don't think it's anything major. You know, it's probably just sharpening up, you know, a couple of the finer details, more more action in the preseason, a ton of stat yourself and you just playing the person last year. Um, you know, I think it's probably easy to say that now, but you know I felt
good going into last week. You know, I think that you know, even though we didn't get a ton of reps during the live games, you know, we get a lot of work in during camp. So, um, you know, I never said that there was a number that I thought I needed to get. You know, I felt good. Um, So I think that's we can't say saying what's what's the confidence of the like? Um, you know, I think it's still there. You know, I think obviously, you know, everything is still ahead of us. You know, we still
believe in ourselves. We believe in this offense. Um. You know, we know that when we get things going that um, you know, we can be a really good offense. You know, I think we've just got to get out of our own way. Um. You know, we're just shooting ourselves in the foot, you know, can't get things going. But like I said, we're gonna get back to work. You know, we're gonna look at the hey make our corrections. You know, we're gonna give everything we have next week against the Jets.
Do you feel like Atlanta and Dallas book did sort of the same thing. They want to take away a hurt of the game and maybe you have ten twelve played drives if you're going to score. Is that what you're seeing? Um A little bit? Um, you know, I'm not really obviously. I think that was Atlanta's plan, not to let anything get beat. And then you know tonight, you know, Dallas did a good job mixing up the coverage. You know, they played more too than we probably expected.
But you know, when we struggle to run the ball, I think it made it easier for them to go to that. Considering the long lay off, Sammy, if you find that the game is a little bit faster than you know it has been at the different points of the past, just processing, um no, I mean I feel the speed is the same. Um. You know, Like I said, I think it's just it's just a little bit off
right now. You know, it's obviously not what it was or what it was in the preseason, But I don't think it's a long ways off, you know, I think it's something that we can get fixed. You're gonna tration though, I mean, which player was it that's just coming through and making the plays on Marco where you've got a guy just coming free you guys going to sideline and discuss like who that is that's coming through their play after play? Um, you know what I mean, it's sort
of linebackers. Um. You know, that's what it looked like tonight. You know, they were playing pretty downhill on the run. Um, you know, give them credit. That just a good job. You know, they obviously made us pretty one dimensional tonight. Seems drops have been a problem. Why do you think that is? Um, yeah, I don't know. I mean, it's part of the game. It happens, you know, obviously, Um, you know you hate for them to happen, but hopefully we're just getting them all out of the way early guys.
Thank you
