Cincinnati Bengals On SI

Transcript

00:00It's a back-to-back process.

00:03It's not good ever losing, so I've got to learn from it.

00:09What's going through your mind right now?

00:13Trying to overcome adversity, get some wins, man.

00:17Got to do better in the game.

00:20Just got to get better at getting first downs.

00:23How frustrating were you tonight?

00:25How frustrating were you as that game went on?

00:29I'm always frustrated if I'm losing, you know what I'm saying?

00:31But it's part of the game, man.

00:35Sometimes the emotions take over.

00:37Sometimes it looks like what it's not supposed to.

00:39But, yeah, it happens.

00:41You and Zach had a steady interaction after one of the drives.

00:45What did you want to convey to them as you came up?

00:48We're just talking about the possession, talking about what plays we can run

00:51and how can we attack certain coverages and get our play and make us the ball.

00:56One thing Zach did say, Jamar, was the fact that he loves the way you compete,

01:01no matter what the score is.

01:03Why has this team not been able to compete on the scoreboard the last two games?

01:08Tough to say, man.

01:09No, honestly, you know, we go out there and we lay eggs sometimes.

01:14We're not capitalizing on the downs when we get opportunities.

01:22When it's second and third and one, third and two, we've got to capitalize on those.

01:26Get the ball moving down the field so we can keep the play going.

01:29Do you think there's enough urgency in this team?

01:32The urgency is there, man.

01:33It's just we've got to want it.

01:34At the end of the day, we've got to want it.

01:35But, you know, today it didn't look like we wanted it.

01:37As a leader of this team, do you think you're being targeted enough?

01:42How many targets did I have today?

01:45Six, I think.

01:47It's usually six to eight.

01:49I mean, it don't matter.

01:50I just want to make a play.

01:51Jamar, obviously things were going to change when Joe went out.

01:54But how do you stomach 13 points in two games,

01:58knowing the offense of players that you guys have?

02:02Yeah, it's hard.

02:03It's hard knowing the type of offense we have,

02:06knowing the type of weapons we have in the backfield and outside and at tight end.

02:10So, I mean, it's kind of hard for us.

02:11We know what we're capable of.

02:12We know the ins and outs of the offense.

02:15We know we're a downfield threat team, and everybody else knows it.

02:19But, you know, right now we're facing a little adversity, and we've got to figure it out.

02:22You said you didn't seem like you wanted it today.

02:25Why do you think that was the case?

02:26Just giving up, man.

02:28A lot of flags on the field that comes with being disciplined.

02:35Too many flags on the offensive side, too.

02:39Just out there, man, offense got to want it more than the defense does.

02:42I think they had, how many possessions did they leave us after the first drive?

02:47I think it was like four possessions straight, you know what I'm saying, punting.

02:50So, like, you know, we've got to capitalize.

02:52Did you feel like you had more options, maybe a tag downfield?

02:55It's hard to say.

02:56I can't really tell off top.

02:58I've got to look at Phil Mile.

02:59I can't really say.

03:00As one of the leaders of this team, what can you do to support this locker room right now?

03:06I've got to be a captain.

03:07I've got to be a leader.

03:08I've got to be vocal.

03:09I've got to be confident.

03:10I've got to be myself at the end of the day, you know, make a play for the guys,

03:16encourage everybody, and, you know, speak up.

03:18You still have to be hopeful, too.

03:20Just want to turn around and find the answers.

03:26Yeah, I wouldn't want to say hope, though.

03:28I don't want to say that word.

03:31We know what we're capable of.

03:32At the end of the day, we've got to find out how to make plays and move the ball downfield.

03:37Do you think you guys are too predictable on offense at times?

03:39Say it again.

03:39Do you think you guys are too predictable on offense at times?

03:43I don't know, maybe.

03:44That's an opinion question.

03:45I don't know.
