00:00Cam Jones, he has a hip also, he's been evaluated.

00:03Same thing with Garrett.

00:05All right, so Garrett had a couple things that happened in the game.

00:07He went back in the game on one with his hip,

00:10and he came out again in that same situation.

00:13So I'll figure out what that is.

00:15Disappointing game.

00:18Man, I thought our guys fought their asses off.

00:21Obviously wasn't good enough.

00:24It's tough being close.

00:26At some point, we've got to finish one of these here,

00:29and that's been something that we talk about, about how we finish.

00:34And we didn't finish the way that we needed to to go and get this win.

00:37Give those guys a lot of credit.

00:40Defensively, they were all over the place when it comes to their defense.

00:44But I thought our defense played well.

00:47It was probably our best game, you know, our defense.

00:50Guys, the takeaway, I think we were on the better end of the penalties,

00:55which is positive on both ends.

00:57But offensively, I mean, they gave it to us, and we all saw that.

01:03I don't know how many yards we averaged per rush,

01:05maybe three-some yards a carry.

01:07I know we ran the ball quite a bit.

01:10Our passing game was nonexistent,

01:12and that's something that we've got to get better at.

01:13Those guys did a really good job of pressuring our quarterback,

01:16and they are a team that pressures quite a bit.

01:18So we knew that going in, and it was tough.

01:23It was tough.

01:24But there were a lot of good things from a defensive perspective,

01:27from a special teams perspective that we're going to build on,

01:32and maybe we're going to go back to the drawing board

01:33and get some things cleaned up on our offensive side

01:35and get ready to go to the next game.

01:37So we put ourselves in this hole.

01:39We're 0-6, and we claim that.

01:43But we're going to continue to work and get better.

01:45That's what we have to do.

01:47That's what we have to do.

01:48All right, any questions?

01:49How do you process being 0-6?

01:52I might imagine this is not something to force off.

01:55The same way I process it when I was in Detroit,

01:59and we were at that.

02:00It is what it is, and you've got to keep working.

02:03And no one's going to feel sorry for you.

02:06So in the same way a lot of these other coaches

02:08that I've talked to that was in this situation, same thing.

02:13It's not like this hasn't happened to other teams before.

02:16We have to keep fighting our ass off,

02:17and we've got to keep building on the positive that we've shown

02:19and keep working.

02:21I know you like to watch the film before you fall to the value,

02:23but I'm passing him by minus, so I'm in net yards, I think.

02:26That speaks for itself.

02:27But Justin in particular, do you feel like he was hesitant

02:30to go in the way?

02:31I want to see it.

02:32I want to see it.

02:33I will say this.

02:35When you have a team that pressures that much

02:38and play that much man coverage,

02:40sometimes you've just got to give you guys a chance

02:41to win a one-on-one.

02:43Again, I don't want to just stamp that,

02:46but I will think, because of the way they play,

02:48and I know how advance calls a game,

02:50that sometimes you've got to give you guys a chance

02:52in those one-on-one situations.

02:54Can you tell us what happened at the end of the first half

02:56with not running a play?

02:59Yeah.

03:00So I knew we were getting the ball back,

03:02and I think it was like third and seven or third and eight.

03:05And at that point, we didn't know if we got the first down or not,

03:08because I know one ref was saying yes, and the other one was no.

03:10So once we got the fourth down, guys,

03:11I'm not about to sit there and try to get a playoff,

03:14and they will get the ball back.

03:15And I think they had a timeout left

03:16and give them a chance to kick a field goal.

03:18I don't think that's the smartest thing to do.

03:20So let's just end the half, we get the ball back,

03:22and see if we can get a chance to score.

03:23Do you think you showed enough urgency on that drive,

03:27even before that play?

03:28Just, you got the ball back with three minutes left.

03:31Do you think there was enough urgency altogether on that drive?

03:33On the last drive?

03:34The last drive in the first half.

03:35The last drive in the first half.

03:36You know, I think we did show enough urgency.

03:39The thing is, I knew that we were getting the ball back.

03:42And we talked about this as a staff.

03:43I want to put us in a situation to where, man, let's go,

03:46let's try to get some points at halftime and we get the ball back

03:49in the second half, then we'll try to get points again.

03:52So that was the whole mindset of that.

03:54The thing I didn't want to do is give those guys the ball back.

03:57You know, it happened to us, I think it happened to us last week.

04:01We ended up giving the team the ball back.

04:02And I don't want to put our guys in a situation like that again.

04:05So I think the smart thing to do was, man,

04:07can we run this clock all the way down?

04:09Can we get points?

04:10And then can we come back to the second half and get points again?

04:13Garrett seemed pretty upset when he was walking off the field.

04:15At the end of the first half, was that what it was about?

04:17And what did you talk?

04:18It seemed like he calmed down.

04:19I mean, he's a competitive person.

04:21I mean, who wouldn't be pissed when, you know,

04:26when things are not going right, you know, on the offensive side of the ball.

04:29So, I mean, you guys know how he is.

04:30I mean, that's not going to change.

04:31I like that about him.

04:33You know, when things are not going right, he gets pissed.

04:36In the final two-minute drive, you just got in the first down.

04:40The passing game wasn't going well all day.

04:42Did you think of running it on that first down?

04:43I think Justin got sacked on that.

04:45Yeah.

04:46I think, again, I think we were having like three yards a carry.

04:50I mean, yes, I can easily say we couldn't ran the ball.

04:53And that's always hindsight.

04:54But, man, we were trying to get ourselves in the position to where we can get to

04:57that 35-40 and get a chance to give us a field goal in that situation.

05:01Where is the line for the field goal there, A.G.?

05:04Is that a field goal?

05:04Well, 35 for us.

05:07Yeah, 35 for us.

05:08I mean, I know our guy, he kicked a 58-yard.

05:11That was his career long.

05:13So, man, we can get to the 35.

05:15We felt like we were really good in that situation.

05:16Is there any consideration there on you guys where I think it would have been 64?

05:20Yeah, so it would have been 64.

05:21I mean, yeah, that's tough.

05:24Again, we just said his line was 35, and we're talking about nine yards back.

05:27I'd say, like, if his career long was 58, which he did this year.

05:30We were 58, and I think we was, I think it was with the wind and all that.

05:35So, I just thought that was tough.

05:38A.G., I understand you probably want to watch the film.

05:40Yep.

05:41But Justin's numbers are not good for this game.

05:44Is he going to be your quarterback next week?

05:47Come on, man, what kind of question is that?

05:48Well, you did not have a good game.

05:50I mean, I think it's a fair play.

05:51There's a number of guys that, you know, I mean, sometimes this league is like this,

05:55and there are guys that have bad games.

05:57That doesn't mean you just bench them.

05:59Come on, you know better than that.

06:01The struggles have been, you guys are on six, though.

06:03Yep.

06:03This isn't, you know, a team that's two and three or three and three.

06:07No doubt.

06:07The quarterback has a bad game.

06:08It's been, Justin's played a role in some of these offensive struggles.

06:11No doubt.

06:12Everybody's played a role in that.

06:13So, it's not just Justin, because I understand where you guys are trying to take this.

06:17But, listen, there's a number of other guys that, you know,

06:20got to pick their game up, too.

06:21So, I don't want to sit there and pin this all on Justin.

06:24The broadcast, the television broadcast, is showing a lot of plays where Justin had not been sacked yet.

06:30The ball's in his hand, and guys are open.

06:32Yeah.

06:32Well, I got to see it on tape.

06:34I don't know where they are on the reads.

06:34But if he's not pulling the trigger,

06:36don't you kind of owe it to the rest of the guys on offense to give a guy another chance

06:40to be the one to throw the ball to?

06:42Well, I don't see that, you know.

06:44Sometimes we've got to get him to operate a certain way.

06:47I mean, that happens to a lot of guys.

06:49You just can't sit there and say, oh, man, we're going to bench him because this.

06:52I thought some other games he's played well.

06:54So, I'm not looking at this as just, man, he played a bad game.

06:57I'm going to bench him.

06:58I don't see it that way.

06:59Last one.

07:02Before the first game, you told us, last four minutes of each half are the head coaches.

07:06Absolutely.

07:07Last four minutes of the first half didn't go great for you guys today.

07:10Last four minutes didn't go great today.

07:12Yeah.

07:13I see it last week in Dallas, first half.

07:15Yeah.

07:15How do you feel like you've done it?

07:17I think the decisions have been the correct decisions.

07:21You know, sometimes we just didn't execute it.

07:22And that's okay.

07:23Just like today's decision was, man, I do not want to give this offense the ball back

07:27after 49 with a timeout.

07:29I mean, with time on the clock.

07:31I don't think that's smart.

07:32I think what we did, no one was going to get the ball back at second half.

07:35Man, let's keep it.

07:35You know, even on this one, we ended up moving the ball, you know, fairly well.

07:40You know, we just didn't get a chance to, those guys sending a whole lot of pressure

07:43and sack our quarterback.

07:44So, we didn't execute.

07:45I think, you know, I didn't want to put a 45-yard field goal, a 65-yard field goal on our kicker,

07:54and he's never done that.

07:56You know, we set the line with the 35.

07:58So, listen, I do know this.

08:01I can improve in those situations too, though.

08:03You know, I'm not going to sit there and just put on the player.

08:06That's on me also, you know, a number of things.

08:11But we all have to work together to get better at those things too, though.

08:13Thanks, everyone.

08:14Justin's coming in next.

08:15All right.

08:16Okay.
