going back to the drawing board what did you see with the turnovers and and how do you fix those mistakes for this week yeah you know there's some different situations that happen throughout the game um obviously no matter how a turnover happens or occurs um you don't want those and so uh we got to do a better job protecting the ball and that starts with me I touch the ball we play so um got to do that and uh like you said back to the drawing board a little bit we're not going to abandon our offense but um just got to be sharper second half you guys ran the ball a little bit more uh but field positioning was a big issue all day long for you guys just talk a little bit about that and some of the difficulties that you had with the pressure that the defense was getting yeah I thought our defense really played well today uh you know they had a short field on an interception uh I don't know I think that was first half um yeah did they score on that one I think they did and so that's you know that's not on them um and then we just didn't do a good enough job of getting first downs when we were backed up to flip the field you know obviously field position is an important thing in this game and at this level and so um like I said I thought our defense play really well today and uh you know we weren't able to do enough to help him out seemed like especially on those last two interceptions maybe a miscommunication is that kind of what happened what were you kind of seeing on those last two maybe on the last Drive especially um what happened there um you know I didn't think it was necessarily miscommunication on on the on the first of those two um you know I saw man coverage over there with Cam we talked you know all all Camp uh one-onone we we like our chances and we feel like we're open and I found out afterwards I think that he was a little a little shaken up on that so I don't think he was 100% so uh that stinks obviously I didn't know that um and so um that's not on him you know uh like I said obviously he's not 100% that's going to make it tough but I don't know what the verdict is on that I think he's okay but um but yeah that was the first one the second one you know it's we had 30 seconds left we're trying to get a chunk play and you know we ran something we tag something that you know over there and we have um you know got a ton of reps at that I guess and I thought that you know me and Keandre hadn't talked on the sideline about that play and so he was expecting that post to be way down the field and with one high Zone you know that's going to be just a jump ball and that's that's tough and so I was trying to fit it in there on like a bang post type deal and um like like you said there's some different pages there did you guys feel like you couldn't get into a ren tonight and if so what was that defense do yeah you know their defense did a good job mixing some things up um like you said when we did get a rhythm going I feel like then we bang a negative play and you know you don't obviously uh want that and we try to limit native plays as much as we can and uh had a few TOA tonight but uh I have to go back and look at the film and this to really see momentum type stuff like that but um obviously we weren't able to hold on to that momentum tonight after that first drive where you guys went down the scoore what kind of was there anything that you saw the defense doing differently that you guys kind of had to adjust to not necessarily obviously I missed a couple throws today um that you know I feel like I make on the regular uh just we're on different pages uh on one of them kind of um and then the other one just just kind of missed them and so um I don't think the defense necessarily did too much different they gave us a couple blitzes that we had we don't seen like once on the film so I guess that's credit to them but um but yeah I don't think they did too terribly much different last question feel about the rhythm of the passing game today the rhythm of the passing game um I'm not sure you know that'll be one I have like you know study to be honest with you that question um like we said ear we couldn't really get in much of a rhythm outside that first drive on offense and so I guess the passing game would go along with that but um you know like I said I'll take a look on film to kind of stud up on that I guess pton how important is this week going to be for leadership especially from you and and the veterans on the understand yeah you know it's early in the season it's only like week two and so uh it is important you know if we hang our heads here and think that the season's over thankfully this year The Season's not over and so it's really go time now and time to respond all right that's it thank you
