On allowing more yards in the second half: “I don’t know, I’d have to go back and look at the film. I feel like we did some good things. We obviously let them move the ball a little bit late in the game to set up for a field goal. At the end of the day, we didn’t do enough on defense to hold them from scoring and that’s what it comes down to.”

  • On how disheartening the kicking game has been: “For me, that’s not something for me to worry about. All I can do is continue to play defense and put us in position to get the ball back to the offense. I can’t worry about things that are out of my control. At the end of the day, I know Alex (Henery) is a hard-working person and I’ll continue to root for him as well as any other guy that comes in if that may be the decision.”

    On if he noticed any adjustments that the Bills made in between halves: “I wouldn’t say so. The only thing that I did notice was that they tried to get the ball out very quickly, try to run slants and get the ball across the field and allow their playmakers to make plays. We needed to get to the quarterback more often.”

    On how hard this loss is: “At the end of the day, a wise man said, ‘All this means is that we’re not going to be 15-1.’ We have to continue to play and make sure that we understand we have to go back to work on Monday and take care of business.”
