WEBVTT - The Post- Game Show: Eagles Stumble In Carolina 0:00:41.120 --> 0:01:17.200 The Eagles defense kept the team in the game for 0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:20.959 most of the evening thanks to the three interceptions, including 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:23.840 that one there by Byron Maxwell, his first as a 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:28.200 Philadelphia Eagle, but unfortunately it was not enough, as Eagles 0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:31.400 fell to the undefeated Panthers by a score of twenty 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:36.160 seven to sixteen in Charlotte, North Carolina. Hello everyone, and 0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:38.480 welcome to the postgame show presented by Rico here on 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:42.440 Philadelphia Eagle dot com Chris McPherson alongside former Eagles linebacker 0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:45.919 Ike Greece. Again, the Eagles fall to the Panthers twenty 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.320 seven to sixteen. They are now three and four head 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:51.720 to the biweek ike where you look at this game 0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:54.920 from an offensive standpoint, they couldn't move the ball on 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:58.240 the red zone, they were able to capitalize on those opportunities, 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.680 and then defensively they had the three turnovers. The three 0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:04.800 interceptions they are of Cam Newton, but they did allow 0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:07.240 over one hundred yards of Jonathan's two are on the ground, 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:09.480 the first time they've allowed one hundred yards of rusher 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:13.200 since the Frank Gore back in Week four of last season, 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:16.680 so that streak is over. Nonetheless, though it was a 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:19.720 good effort but just not good enough against a very 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:22.679 hungry Panther's team at home. Yeah, and we knew it 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:25.200 would be a defensive struggle here. There's I mean, listen 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:28.600 to Carolina Panthers only given up eighteen points per game. 0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:32.320 It's difficult to score points against this defense. They'll give 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.120 up yardage, but they just don't give up very many touchdowns, 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:39.040 as was the case again here tonight. But the Eagles, 0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.200 in my opinion, they did what they needed to do 0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:43.160 on the defensive side of the ball, which was take 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:47.480 the ball away from Carolina, get your offense extra possessions, 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:50.400 try to find a way to shorten the field for 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:54.080 your offense. It really boiled down to not being effective 0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:56.320 in the red zone on the offensive side of the 0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:58.960 ball for the Eagles. But I thought the defense played 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:02.320 extremely well tonight taking the ball away, which is something 0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:04.160 they need to do. Shortly, they give up a few 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.720 yards in the running game. This is a difficult rushing 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:10.200 attack to stop at times. But I thought taking the 0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:13.320 ball away was the key coming into the game. They 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:15.680 were able to do that three times the night just 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:19.160 didn't get any points of any touchdown, two field goals 0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:22.240 not a none. Now six points offer three turnovers, again 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:24.600 not able to convert in the red zone. The Eagles 0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:27.520 got the one touchdown from Ryan Matthews, a sixty three 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.120 yards score, the longest run of his career, and that 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:32.560 seemed to give them a spark because Eagles had given 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:35.960 up the touchdown to Mike Tilbert, his second touchdown of 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:37.840 the game. In fact, he accounted for two of the 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:41.760 three Panthers touchdown. Cam Newton had a rushing touchdown as well. 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.080 So we're gonna hear from head coach Chip Kelly and 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.920 quarterback Sam Bradford in just a little bit. First, we're 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:49.560 gonna take a quick commercial break here on the postgame 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.920 show presented by Rico Chris mcpheerson alongside Ike Res as 0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:56.040 we detail what happened here as Eagles followed to three 0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:58.320 and four, go into the bye week, and they now 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:01.520 sit a game behind the New York Giants in the NSCE. 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:03.760 So we're gonna break it all down right after this 0:04:03.880 --> 0:04:22.680 quick break.

I mean, how do we really know 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:34.760 it looks good, right, No, I'm paying myself. I gotta 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:37.360 make gray.

May nobody wants 0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:42.400 to buy tickets from a guy on the street. I 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:52.720 don't understand even ordinary moments become milestones when you've overcome cancer. 0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:56.800 At Jefferson's Sydney Kimmel Cancer Center, if we had a 0:04:56.839 --> 0:05:00.479 marker for every patient we treated who is now cancer free, 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:05.479 markers would be everywhere evidence that our personalized approach to 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:09.000 cancer treatment is producing some of the highest survival rates 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:14.320 in the nation. And that's a milestone for everyone. Jefferson, 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:20.560 until every cancer is cured, give any more chips, Fellas, 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.800 I'm sorry.

Hello everyone to welcome back 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:09.000 to the postgame show, presented by Rico Chris McPherson alongside 0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:13.120 former Eagles linebacker Ike Reason. We talked about the defense 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.120 briefly there before the break, where you know they did 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:17.960 allow one hundred yards on the ground over a hundred 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:21.840 yards at Jonathan Stewart. Again, very difficult rushing attack to defend. 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.360 The biggest thing that I liked was that they gave 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.960 the offense a chance there in the fourth quarter, because 0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:28.360 that's the one of the things you wanted to see 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:30.880 from this defense in the clutches. Could they come up 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:33.600 with a key third down stop to give the offense 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:36.279 one more possession with the ball, And they were able 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:40.080 to do that. Unfortunately, offense just wasn't able to capitalize 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:42.680 and there were some plays there to be had. You 0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:45.360 look at that one third down to Miles Austin, where 0:06:45.560 --> 0:06:47.840 some might say it was an Aaron throw by Sam 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:51.520 Bradford a little bit off target, but to me, Miles Austin, 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:54.400 you gotta make that play. And it's not just Miles Austin. 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:56.440 There were guys across the board who were not able 0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:58.720 to come up with key receptions throughout the course of 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:01.520 the game. Credit Carrol Line with some you know, big 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.359 pass defenses, especially in the red zone late in the 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:07.280 first half. You had the zach Ertz play where it 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.039 could have been a touchdown, the window to him was 0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:11.280 cut up by Josh Norman. You had that one pass 0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:13.120 in the back of the end o to Jordan Matthews 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:16.200 or he was forced out bounds. But still to me, though, 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.640 you know, you need someone to step up and make 0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:21.560 a play in the clutch for the Heels offense. Yeah, 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:24.760 a difficult night for the wide receivers tonight. You know, 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:26.840 it's been a tough season for them all year long, 0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:31.200 dropping passes, inconsistency with the quarterback at times, and tonight 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:34.240 was the night where Sam Bradford appeared to be on 0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:38.800 his game, thrown with accuracy, thrown with velocity, just didn't 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:41.000 have his guys come up with the catches for him 0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:43.960 when he needed him the most. And you know, you're 0:07:43.960 --> 0:07:45.920 gonna have the You're gonna have those type of nights. 0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:50.200 But this is just a maturation process that this passing 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:54.640 game is still evolving. Losing Jason Peters certainly didn't help 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:58.440 out the calls. Sam Bradford under durest for a good 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.920 portion of the night, but off for the most part. 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:04.120 He stood in there and he delivered the throws with 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:09.320 preciseness and with decisiveness. It just got to have help 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:13.080 from his receivers by pulling his passes in. It seems 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:15.440 like when a guy is open, the passage is a 0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:18.240 little bit off target. But then when there's a tough 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:20.840 throw to be made, Bradford throws it in there on 0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:23.400 the dime. The guys can't make the catch. It seems 0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:25.720 it's like frustrating thing or it's one or the other. Listen, 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:28.520 the only time that I'll fought a quarterback want to 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.080 throw is a little bit off is when he has 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:33.400 a clean pocket. I mean that guy has four and 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:36.480 five guys rushing at him. He has to read through 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.920 a defense. It's very rare that he's going to get 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:41.439 a clean pocket where he could just throw a ball 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:44.360 with PenPoint accuracy. So you may get a ball a 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:47.160 little off. As long as it's in your catch radius, 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:49.240 you should bring it in. I mean, this is the 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:53.719 National Football League and your receivers sometimes have to pick 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:57.840 your quarterback up. And I thought tonight Sam Bradford stood 0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:00.120 in the pocket with confidence. I thought he threw the 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:03.400 ball with velocity, and I just didn't think his receivers 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:06.720 helped him out of enough. You know, tight ends. Zach 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.360 Ertz did a nice job to night. Miles Austin early 0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.240 in the game was very good. Should have came up 0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:14.920 with that last row. With too many other guys just 0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:17.400 didn't help the quarterback out and he needed it tonight. 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:19.520 Russian game, on the other hand, that was there for 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:21.440 the Eagles and going into this matchup, but I thought 0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:23.880 that might have struggled a little bit with his stout. 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:27.160 Caroline defense very good against both the run and the past. 0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:30.160 But that amazing defensive line yea KK short at the 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:32.920 ANC Defensive Player of the Week. Luke Keickley and Thomas 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:36.480 Davis were simply phenomenal tonight. Anytime the Eagles tried to 0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:39.760 go to the outside, Thomas Davis or Keickley, one of 0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:42.240 them was tracking the ball down, able to stop it, 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:44.520 but still the Eagle stuck to the run even though 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:46.760 they were trailing throughout the course of the game, and 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:49.920 Murray on the inside zone was able to get his yards, 0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:52.880 and Matthews, even he had a big touchdown, was still 0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.040 effective on the outside. I was almost surprised we didn't 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:56.360 see more of him to try to get to the 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.960 edge tonight. Yeah. I think just the way the game 0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:02.480 sort of bomb played itself out, I thought. I I 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:04.960 like the running game and the way they mixed both 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:07.600 guys up pretty much throughout this game. You're talking about 0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:10.120 one hundred and seventy some yards rushing, obviously the big 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:15.160 sixty plus yard for Ryan Matthews when you're throwing DeMarco Murray, 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:19.160 who's a more pound guy, North South guy, physical, physical, 0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:21.520 bruising type of running back, and then you hit him 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:25.239 with a nice change up with Ryan Matthew. Ryan Matthews, 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:27.959 I think the Eagles or were getting exactly what they 0:10:28.000 --> 0:10:30.760 want the last three weeks in the running game. It's 0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:32.960 just that the game sort of got out of hand 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:34.640 to the point where they had to throw the ball 0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:36.559 just a little bit more than they wanted to the night. 0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:38.719 But the running game was working all right, So we're 0:10:38.720 --> 0:10:41.080 actually gonna break down the all twin two of two 0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:44.000 of Matthews runs, including the touchdown. They'll be done by 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.760 NFL Film senior producer Greg Cosell. A little bit later 0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:49.199 in the show, we're waiting to hear from the head coach, 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:52.840 Chip Kelly. We also hear from quarterback Sam Bradford. I 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:54.720 am breathing a little bit of a side of relief. 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:56.440 I don't know if you're like, we don't know the 0:10:56.480 --> 0:10:58.839 severity of Jason Pierce injury, who was not able to 0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:01.600 finish the game after egg in the first half due 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.560 to the lower back injury. But I think everyone saw 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.600 him go down, not be able to put any weight 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:08.040 on his legs, and they thought that it was a 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:11.040 severe achilles maybe which he had injured a couple of 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:14.120 years ago, something to that nature. So it was somewhat 0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:16.760 good news here that was a back injury. I thought 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:19.560 the offensive line did a pretty good job. Matt Tobin 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:22.280 went over to left tackle and for the most part 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.120 did a good job until that final drive or Jared 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.240 Allen had the two sacks, and to me, I'm thinking 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.480 I thought Jared Allen was done. I thought that he 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:32.360 wasn't able to produce anymore. He was required recently in 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:34.520 the trade from Chicago because he wasn't as fit as 0:11:34.520 --> 0:11:36.520 they were going from a four three to a three 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:39.520 to four scheme. Carolina losing Charles Johnson to the year 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:42.439 due to injury. Greg Hardy is obviously at Dallas Cowboy. 0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:44.679 Now they need someone to come off the edge, and 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:46.640 Jared Allen was able to give him that little bit 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:49.520 of a pass rush tonight, especially when he consider in 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:52.760 the clutch situations that happened in Yeah, you those final 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.760 two drives for the Carolina Panther defenses, which is what 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:57.960 they wanted. They knew the Eagles weren't going to run 0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:00.880 the ball at all on those drives, and the defensive 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.440 line can just pin in their ears back and basically 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:05.880 just get out to Sam Bradford and nest with Jared Allen, 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:09.600 who's a borderline Hall of Fame defensive in. I mean, 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:11.480 you think about the amount of probos he's made, the 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.520 double digit sacks seasons he's had. That old dog can 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:16.480 still hunt, and when you put him in a position 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:18.840 where all he has to do is rush the passer, 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:21.599 like those final two drives, he's gonna take advantage of 0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:23.760 a guy like Matt Tobin who doesn't have a lot 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:26.760 of experience out there and left tackle putting a difficult 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:30.240 position having to go in there and play for Jason Peters. So, 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:32.880 you know, but I thought for the most part, Sam 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.400 Bradford had time to throw the ball prior to those 0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:38.120 final drives. It's just that when you become sort of 0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:41.640 predictable on offense like they were for those final two drives, 0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:44.319 where Carolina knew they had to throw the ball, and 0:12:44.440 --> 0:12:47.679 makes it a little more difficult for a young, inexperienced 0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:51.079 group to really pass protect when those guys are just 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:54.280 basically throwing fastballs that you're everywhere. So when you look 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.520 at this team three and four go into the buy, 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.240 I think the biggest thing is the self inflicted wounds. 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:01.800 That's something that Chip Kelly has talked about time after 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.679 time again. Some key penalties throughout the course of the game. 0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:07.199 He saw some along with the offensive line. Lane Johnson 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:09.880 had one on a third down conversion, Jason Kelsey had 0:13:09.920 --> 0:13:13.200 some upfront that you know, they were able not able 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:16.320 to really force any penalties, or what I mean is 0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:18.720 Carolina didn't actually commit a penalty until late in the 0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:21.600 first half. It was Jordan Matthews was able to get 0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:24.400 the past interference. I got them in field goal range, 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:26.600 but again they had to sell for three points and 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:29.760 not score a touchdown. So as the Eagles going to 0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:31.760 the buy, I think one of the thing the coaches 0:13:31.760 --> 0:13:33.679 are going to look at is what can they do 0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:36.720 to reduce these self inflicted wounds, so to speak. How 0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:39.280 can they clean up some of these mistakes, because they're 0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:40.960 just not a good enough team at this point to 0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:44.120 be able to overcome these type of mistakes, especially in 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:46.840 a road game, an atmosphere as hyped as it was 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:49.679 in Carolina tonight. Yeah, but it's got to be frustrating, Chris. 0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:53.079 You know, for this coaching staff and after these players, 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:56.720 you know, much time and effort that they put in 0:13:56.880 --> 0:14:00.280 to getting ready for these games. You see the players there, 0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:02.400 and I'm speaking particularly on the offensive side of the 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.600 football in the passing game. That's where this offense seems 0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:08.440 to have the most issues in the passing game, whether 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:11.480 it's the quarterback ben erratic at times, or the wide 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:15.280 receivers being inconsistent with catching the football. I look at 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:17.160 this game to night, and I see plays that were 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:20.480 wide open. I see play calls that were open. I 0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:23.640 mean there were receivers there. You got to catch the football, 0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:25.800 and are those are the things that will keep you 0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:28.520 up at night as a player and the coach. It's 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.320 one thing if the play breakdowns and you never have 0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:34.480 a chance to execute the play. But when the play 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:37.240 is executed all the way up to the point of 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.600 you not catching the football, I mean, those are the 0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:42.080 type of things that to give you sleepless nights an 0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:44.840 extra week before they get a chance to come back 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:47.120 and play. When they look at these first seven games 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:50.120 of the season, particularly on the offensive side of the football, 0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:52.320 there's a lot of frustration on that side of the 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:56.280 ball because again, the plays are there to be made. 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:59.000 I mean they're there to be made. The players just 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:01.880 had to start making. How frustrating is it for a 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:04.600 team to go into the bye I'll loost like this. 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:07.760 It's very frustrating. And believe me, I know a lot 0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:11.000 about losing before the bye week. I mean we lost 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:12.640 a few games before. All right, we're saying it to 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:18.600 Charlotte head coach of Kelly's press conference. I mean, I 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:20.360 don't have an answer for why, but we did have 0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:22.760 too many for us to be successful. I thought the 0:15:22.760 --> 0:15:26.640 same through the ball, well, um, through with authority, Knight. 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:31.640 But uh, you know the drops obviously you know, hurt, 0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:34.680 hurt big time. You know, we gotta get again an 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:37.000 answer for that. Why don't mine matches only have one 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:40.880 carry after again? Deuces running the rotation. We talked to 0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:43.240 him some of it. We were calling past place. He 0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:46.800 was in there for a few passes. Um, but again 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:50.600 well I don't know the exact numbers. Yeah, I think 0:15:50.600 --> 0:15:57.120 it was eighteen eighteen six to sixteen. Yeah, so that 0:15:57.600 --> 0:15:59.680 you have to take over the situation like that you 0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:01.320 have and then we had him in there. It was 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:03.000 just a lot there was. He was playing in the 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:04.720 third and fourth quarter. There were just pass plays called 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:07.840 when he was in there. Soot on, you know, on 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:11.000 the road undefeated, the votus, we feel like you still 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:14.080 missed the opportunity for we do and not about making 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.000 say we just missed an opportunity and won a football game, 0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:18.440 you know, and the self inflicted wounds, you know, the 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:22.000 drops penalties, we had two procedural penalties. You know, we 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.160 had to drive going. Then we get a hold, um, 0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:26.720 you know we hadn't pinned down inside. Uh, A little 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:28.320 good punt haven't pinned down inside of the the twenty. But 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:30.160 then we got a penalty on the on the punt. 0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:33.080 Unnecessary penalty on the punt, you know. And you can't 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:34.720 do that against a good football team like Carolina and 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:36.400 then expect to beat him, you know. So he looked 0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:37.920 at the drive. I look at the drops and the penalties. 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:41.880 Right now, we've got to clean up. We lay Josh 0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:45.520 Josh health on the spin picks. It was a screen 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:49.520 that wasn't a swing a screen. So when we missed 0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:50.880 a block at the point of attack, we knew they 0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:52.160 were gonna be a man coverage. If we get the 0:16:52.160 --> 0:16:54.240 first guy block, then we're bringing a couple of guys 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:58.800 to block the guys that are covering Josh. So it 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:00.560 wasn't the best play because if we get next kids 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:08.359 shoot frustrating army starts for you, another starts half. Yeah. Again, 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:10.800 like I said, we I go back to the drops 0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:12.159 and the penalties. I think other things that we have 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:14.120 to clean up before we're gonna be a sucessful football team. 0:17:14.240 --> 0:17:16.760 Did you ever seen this from where he drops, it 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:19.280 seems like a lot of different guys. I think there's again, 0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:20.720 there are a lot of different guys so it's not 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:22.639 just one guy. You can say, hey, this is the 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:25.399 reason it's happening, and there's now they're shared across the board. 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:28.400 So because the free turnovers today, three turners to day, 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:31.600 and I'd be able to convert them as many times. Touch. Yeah, 0:17:31.600 --> 0:17:33.520 we ended up and that's the thing we got. We 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:35.440 talk about response after turnover, and we end up kicking 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:38.159 two field goals instead of Um my defense did a 0:17:38.160 --> 0:17:40.320 good job of creating turnovers for us, but we got 0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:42.200 to turn those into seven not three. I'm sure you 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:44.959 really wants but it looked pretty bad. He was being 0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:48.000 part at all. Yeah, that's what they said when I 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:49.240 was on the field, and I don't know anything else 0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:50.720 besides that. I mean, I do think you all had 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:52.719 a lot of warm after heem up. I thought they 0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:55.000 were okay. You know, there's a obviously at the end 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:57.119 I gave up, you know, critical when we're throwing it. 0:17:57.200 --> 0:17:59.240 That's when two of those sacks came. But I thought 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:02.320 they battled. Um. But I think some of the things 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:05.679 that burned us in the old line is procedural penalties. 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:07.000 We gotta get those taken care of. One of the 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:09.600 times the guard missed on the tap Lane's going off 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:11.959 of the tap, but the guard missed. Lane saw him 0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:13.439 move thanks to ball is going to be snapped. But 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:15.119 we didn't hit the center so center as it snapped 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:19.680 the ball. So I thought Sam did a nice job. 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:21.280 I thought he threw the ball well. I thought he 0:18:21.359 --> 0:18:23.520 put the ball on people. We just got to catch 0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:29.560 it and help him out. We didn't back yeah, there 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:32.600 was no yeah, and we need to point, you know, 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:34.879 so you know at that point in time, you know, 0:18:34.920 --> 0:18:36.760 I wasn't thinking about punting it and pinning him down 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:38.760 there and just he can hit from that distance. He 0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:42.000 just I mean it's a little bit on the edge. Um, 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:43.960 you know, he hit one, miss one, So okay, we 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:49.880 still in the same situation. Feel better better. I thought 0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:52.560 it was a really nice field today, no wind um, 0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:54.360 there was a little committed in the air. He kicked 0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:56.639 the ball really well and warm ups so we felt like, 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:59.320 you know, in talking to fit, he felt comfortable with it. 0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:03.480 So they didn't do better against the run, Yeah, we didn't. 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:05.040 We didn't do a good job against the run game. 0:19:05.040 --> 0:19:06.600 I thought that's one of the strengths of this defense. 0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:08.080 But we didn't do a good job and holding up 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:10.000 against the run. Game. We knew coming into the game. 0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:12.280 They let the National Football League with thirty two USh 0:19:12.320 --> 0:19:15.360 attempts a game, and I think they had thirty three tonight. Um, 0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:19.480 you know in a couple of the draw that slide 0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:21.960 draw to Jonathan Early, you know for the big game 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:24.600 hurt us and the reverse hurt us. Um, you know, 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:26.960 those are two big ones that I think add to 0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:29.320 the statistics. But they we have to have contain on 0:19:29.320 --> 0:19:30.800 those plays and we got to be in our right gaps, 0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:38.040 in the right fit. So now I mean the reverse, 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:39.760 but I mean, we just gotta stay home on the 0:19:39.800 --> 0:19:41.600 backside and we're not gonna make a playing on the 0:19:41.600 --> 0:19:43.200 front side. But um, I think that was the only 0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:45.440 play that we hadn't seen going in. But I mean 0:19:45.520 --> 0:19:47.439 everybody usually has a reverse in their offense. You can 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:52.640 kind of another considered challenging on that play. Yeah, they 0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:55.080 told me when I asked them that that there was 0:19:55.119 --> 0:19:57.600 no they never saw the ball out and that when 0:19:57.600 --> 0:19:59.280 they got to the bottom of the pile that both 0:19:59.359 --> 0:20:01.919 players had the ball, so it was dual possession. It 0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:04.760 wasn't our guy had it at the end, but they 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:06.359 had already told him he was down and that it 0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:09.160 was it was Carolina ball, so there was no way. 0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:11.119 You know, I'm talking to the officials, they said that 0:20:11.160 --> 0:20:12.639 there was a way that was going to be overturned. 0:20:12.640 --> 0:20:14.399 And again on that one, I didn't I want her 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:15.480 to whistle him. You know, it was just kind of 0:20:15.520 --> 0:20:17.239 a scrumb pile and I don't know if us it 0:20:17.280 --> 0:20:19.520 was blowing, but we couldn't hear him from our sideline, 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:23.159 so you couldn't tell when the momentum was stopped. You know, 0:20:23.200 --> 0:20:25.400 they said the momentum was stopped, and then that becomes 0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:27.719 I don't know if you can get that, And then 0:20:27.760 --> 0:20:29.840
