00:06Never got a chance to really break that game open like we felt like we were capable of.
00:09And two opportunities there at the end of the game to close it out on offense and
00:14defensively to get guys on the ground and tackling wasn't good enough.
00:18So we're not gonna look at anything and say anything was good enough after that loss.
00:21And humbling, and we're gonna have to really dig deep to bounce back next week.
00:27Why did that kind of slip away from you?
00:29I don't know, I mean, I wish I had that reason for you.
00:31You know, it's just someone's gotta step up and make a play.
00:35Someone's gotta make a play either way, just to separate that game for us.
00:38Create turnover, get a guy on the ground, third down, win,
00:42offensively explosive play in the game, just never happened for us.
00:47When the defense started to face adversity,
00:49do you feel like it snowballed on that group?
00:51Yeah, we just need somebody to rise up and make a play.
00:53Someone just hold the four down, and I didn't see enough of that today.
00:57Do you feel like you've got to kind of improve the intangibles there in adverse situations like that?
01:02I think someone needs to step up and lead the group.
01:04That's what I'm waiting to see.
01:05Someone step up and lead the group and take some accountability over there and get this thing going the right way.
01:09What was your overall message to the team?
01:11That.
01:12Is there anything that, from rush defense-wise, why do you think they were able to get so much on the ground?
01:18They got a lot of momentum.
01:19I mean, it's, they were a dangerous team that way.
01:22That was certainly the strength of theirs, you know, with their offensive line.
01:26So, again, we just, we weren't good enough.
01:29You know, I don't know how many explosives it felt like.
01:31It felt like there was a decent amount of explosives there.
01:33Zach, what do you invest in both capital-wise and also in draft picks on the defensive line?
01:42How disappointing is the pass rush?
01:43Yeah, we need, we need somebody to step up and win some more at once.
01:47Is it, is it troubling that this, the, the run defense has been, it's going back to the preseason, it seems like we all begin to ask me.
01:53That's something we've certainly got to improve on.
01:55It looked like T was visibly upset coming off the game through his helmet and, like, pointed at himself.
02:00What, what was supposed to happen on Joe Flacco's last throw?
02:03Was it supposed to go to Yoshi here?
02:06Yeah, he was, yeah, he was an option.
02:07I don't know, like, I mean, he was probably just frustrated he lost.
02:09Was there a thought of maybe going to lose down him, given whatever Flacco was doing?
02:13It was a, it was a very deft decision right there.
02:18He was very, very, very tough.
02:20Joe was ready to go.
02:21I, I don't think anything Joe did on that last couple of plays was anything that led us to, to not being able to win.
02:26I, I thought he, he was fine.
02:28He threw away, we, we were expecting coverage, didn't get it.
02:30Threw one away and, and the other one, the Yoshi, I didn't exactly see what it looked like, but I, I didn't feel like.
02:38Zach, who are some guys you see on the defense, at least?
02:40Yeah, we just need guys to step up, you know.
02:42You know, we just need some guys to step up.
02:43I'm not going to sit here and name names, we just need guys to step up.
02:45At 31-15 and, at 31-16 and 38-24, Zach, did you feel like maybe defense subconsciously was playing pre-vent and keep everything in front of us, don't allow big plays?
02:58We'll let you guys go back to Cam in the starting lineup.
03:01We just gotta, guys gotta continue to, to rise up for us, you know.
03:05And, um, so again, just, just continue to find the best combination we got, guys we got over there.
03:11Where is this rank loss you've had?
03:13Well, I'm not into ranking losses, I'm going to be frustrated that we lost this game.
03:17You know, and it's, uh, it was right there for us to grab and create some momentum for ourselves and, and we just, we missed the opportunity.
03:23Quite simple.
03:24And, and, uh, you gotta give credit to the Jets, man.
03:26They, they, we had them down multiple times, big scores.
03:29And, and they just never delivered that knockout blow and they just kept hanging in there and they made play after play after play and their confidence rose.
03:38And, um, and so then they, they were able to get that win.
03:41And, and we saw this on tape.
03:42We saw the five one score games.
03:43We saw end of games.
03:45Um, they had their opportunities and they just hadn't been able to capitalize on them yet.
03:49And here we are with the team that they got against.
03:51It's unfortunate.
03:52Can you take us through the final few plays on offense there?
03:54You guys got a little momentum.
03:55It seemed like Chase got that.
03:56Yeah, we got some momentum.
03:57Um, the, the first down play, I, I, I got to jog my memory in the second down play.
04:03Second down, um, we had some success running in that situation.
04:06Obviously it's, it's not good when you, when they're up in there and they, they jam it up on him.
04:11Um, and then the third down didn't work, you know, we just, we didn't get it going.
04:16Sorry.
04:17In the grand scheme of things of what y'all want to accomplish this season.
04:20Now, how much more difficult it is?
04:21It's still on the table.
04:22It's still a long season.
04:23Um, you know, this is going to be a difficult season for a lot of teams.
04:27And so you just got to be in the thick of it and give yourself an opportunity.
04:30This is one that we had right in our grasp.
04:32And that's the, that's the disappointing part about it.
04:34We were right there.
04:35We had this.
04:36Right, sure.
04:37So anytime you've got a game like that that you can do and, and we've got to get away from it.
04:40It's frustrating.
04:41What was so good about the run game, Zach?
04:43Why did it pop the way it did today?
04:45We were just, you know, able to lean on it some with the lead and felt like we had good control of the game and stick with it.
04:51Um, thought our guys up front were doing a great job.
04:54Thought, uh, the backs were running really well, breaking tackles.
04:57Joe did a great job controlling the player with some, some perimeter stuff in the run game where he got some completions out of it on some runs to control some of the pressures they were trying to hit with.
05:06So I just thought you guys did a nice show.
05:08How was Hendrickson feeling heading into the game?
05:11Do you have any update on him coming out?
05:12Yeah, he's very important.
05:13He can hit.
05:14So, what was it?
05:15Was it a re-approbation of how he was doing?
05:16That's what I think.
05:17That's what I think.
05:18Yeah.
05:19Yeah.
05:36So, I mean, really, what we did, we got, what we were doing here.
