Today, our defense flew around and had a good time. It was fun out there. |
We can win these games, |
We did what we said we were going to do, ... We got in his (Harrington's) face, and we got some pressure on him and got him to throw the ball sometimes when he didn't want to. And we got some takeaways -- what we've got to do every week. |
We didn't have any three-and-outs, a lot of takeaways, a lot of sacks. That's what we thrive on. |
We didn't tackle. We didn't get in our gaps. Our defense is predicated on getting in our gaps. In order to give ourselves a chance to win games, we can't do that. |
We don't give up a lot of yards, just too many big plays. |
We found a way to lose at the end. |
We found a way to lose it at the end. We had played well for 3 1/2 quarters. |
We had to win in the playoffs to earn respect and we didn't do that. So all of the people who doubted us, I guess, were right. We may be a good team, but we're not a great team. |
We have to play better. If we think we're a good defense, we better start showing it. We didn't make plays when we had to. We gave up a couple of big plays. We had a chance to win the game. We were in the game the whole time and found a way to lose at the end. |
We have to stop thinking we're a good defense and start stepping up and do it. Two plays killed us. No excuses. |
We haven't beaten anyone in the playoffs yet, and that's what we have to do. We've won a lot of big games in the regular season, but we need to win playoff games to get respect. |
We haven't won any games in the playoffs yet. If we can win, I'll definitely be happy to be compared to them. |
We kind of got after him a little bit. We were flying to the ball, running our gaps. |
We know about the tradition here and all that good stuff. We've just got to make plays. That's what it comes down to. We know there's a lot of good defenses here in the past, and we feel like we're one of those teams. |
