You had the Harold Landry III sack, then you knocked them for a loss on the goal line. You gave yourself a couple real chances to win that drive.
Yeah, I mean, we did. But those penalties kill those.
How frustrating is it? All these close losses, double-digit loss season. How much is that wear on you as you go through?
It don't wear on me no more. It's been like that all season. You just try to find ways to stop it. We up and down. Sometimes, we'll close out two-minute. Sometimes we won't. The frustrating part is pretty much over with because we've been doing it all year. Now it's just trying to find a way to make a play. All it is is making the play.
What's the difference between making those plays at critical times and not? Because those are the plays that cost you games.
Yeah, just got to be the best situational football. We've got to win those situations. Football is about situations. We're going to be good all throughout the game and in that one situation that come up, it's going to cost us. So, we just got to be a better situational football team.
(on the defensive communication with many starters out)
I think our main starters who communicate well have been out there, so the communication has picked up, actually, from the guys that haven't been playing. Communication has picked up, but they just make some young mistakes.
