Transcript

00:00I'm getting first downs.

00:01I don't think we did a good job of doing that

00:03coming out of first half.

00:05What was it like in the locker room?

00:06Did anybody say anything?

00:07Did Zach say anything?

00:08Did anybody address anybody

00:09that made that switch flip for y'all in the second?

00:12Zach came in and said a few words,

00:13but it was all about execution.

00:16Did they change the way they usually play,

00:17or do they still go too high in the play zone,

00:20or did they change it up a little?

00:22They went cloud to the field,

00:23quarters to the, I mean, cloud to the boundary,

00:26quarters to the field.

00:30Mixing a little double-double, second half.

00:33Joe just called this the most frustrating season

00:36of his career.

00:37Would you say the same?

00:38Yeah.

00:39Why?

00:41What's our record?

00:43More insanity.

00:44That's why.

00:45Can you explain why the inconsistency

00:48has been there all year?

00:48You guys can't seem to string together

00:51plays or quarters or halves.

00:54I don't know, man.

00:55I don't know what we doing.

00:55I don't know why we not finishing.

00:56I don't know what we doing

00:58to give ourselves an advantage to finish.

01:00I don't know.

01:01Did you feel like y'all tied it so early

01:03in the fourth quarter?

01:04Did you feel like there was still more to come

01:06at that point?

01:06I mean, how did you feel as soon as y'all tied it that early?

01:10We thought we was winning the game once we,

01:13I thought we was winning the game

01:13once we got the ball back the second time, man.

01:15Two minutes.

01:17Well, yeah, two minutes left in the fourth quarter, so.

01:22The tying touchdown,

01:24look like Joe was directing traffic.

01:25He was directing what we,

01:28what was he telling you to do?

01:30Just gave me the thumb,

01:31just like go left, so.

01:34He was double, man.

01:35He was, he was double.

01:37I don't know.

01:38Was I?

01:39I don't know.

01:40He said you.

01:40I was.

01:41Always open.

01:42Do you think that the way that the defense

01:44was playing in the first half

01:46and just kind of how easy it was

01:47for the Chargers to score,

01:49do you feel like that kind of deflated

01:50you guys as an offense?

01:56Not really.

01:56You know, if the defense down,

01:57we gotta pick them up, vice versa.

02:00Joe, did you kind of regret it

02:01not hitting you on the goal ball there at the end?

02:04Did you guys thinking about trying to set that up?

02:05Were you thinking to hit that at some point?

02:08Mm, we didn't call a double goal

02:11till the second half, for real.

02:15We had them, though.

02:16You know, we just didn't hit them.

02:17That would've been to dive in and walk off Teddy,

02:20you know, so, I mean, we just didn't do it.

02:22You guys double,

02:23so, I mean, we just didn't do it.

02:24You know, Joe, as long as anybody,

02:26with him dropping back as much as,

02:27how do you feel about how much he's dropping back,

02:29I mean, going back, you know, the last couple games,

02:31the amount of pass attempts,

02:32I mean, what are your thoughts

02:33on how much he's had to go back?

02:35Keep throwing the ball.

02:37What do you think the mindset needs to be

02:38for the team out of the bye week?

02:42I don't know, everybody just need to get,

02:44I don't know, man.

02:45I don't know.

02:47I can't answer that, I have no clue.

02:49Do you feel like you're answering these questions

02:51week after week?

02:51How frustrating is that?

02:54I mean, yeah, y'all ask the same questions,

02:56because we give y'all the same thing every time,

02:59you know what I'm saying?

03:00Right, but you guys also have had a lot of these losses

03:04that have kind of built up, I would assume,

03:06and get frustrating for you.

03:09Yeah, it don't really matter how good I perform

03:11at the end of the day.

03:12Putting up all them numbers and losing is not good.

03:15Do you feel like y'all can still be,

03:17like, are the playoffs realistic at this point,

03:19four and seven, do you feel like y'all can?

03:21Joe said, y'all gotta get to 10, that's when it out.

03:23How realistic do you think is that,

03:24given y'all's form?

03:25Honestly, I don't know, man.

03:26I have no clue.

03:28I still believe in the guys in this locker room, though.

03:30We just gotta find ways to finish.

03:32You've seen Evan make, gosh, like,

03:35I've heard everybody obviously knows you.

03:37What do you do?

03:38How do I do it?

03:38I don't know.

03:39Ask Zach, ask the coaches, don't ask me.

03:41That's not my job.

03:42To finish?

03:43I play football on the field.

03:45I don't call plays for us, you know?

03:47So I can't really do nothing.

03:48You think that's part of the finishing factor,

03:51is plays, stuff?

03:51I don't know.

03:53You've seen, gosh.

03:55I wasn't saying nothing.

03:56You've seen Evan, obviously, make plenty of big kicks.

04:00Obviously, he missed two tonight.

04:02What do you say to him?

04:04Do you say anything?

04:05What's going through your mind?

04:07But he knows to make those kicks, you know?

04:09That's why we paid him those bucks,

04:10to make those kicks in crunch time.

04:13Did you guys change anything in the second half?

04:15I mean, you had that great-

04:16Change anything?

04:17Yeah, you had that great nine-minute run there.

04:18We got the three touchdowns.

04:19We didn't change nothing.

04:20We just stayed with our offense and executed.

04:25Smart.

04:26Did he say anything to you after the goal ball?

04:30Nah, I mean, shit, we both mess up.

04:32We don't talk to each other.

04:33You know what we do now.

04:35That's why we pros.
