We have taken a couple of tough losses. We started the season 3-0, but we have been grounded a little bit.

We had a couple of breakdowns at the start of the second half and Rockland is a good team and they took advantage to them.

I think Brian learned a valuable lesson last week. He was frustrated and I told him, 'They're going to make us beat them by throwing the football, so you need to take that as a compliment.' That doesn't mean you surrender. You keep playing because it's going to be a game where you earn every one of your yards. Games like this are games of persistence, games of trusting yourself, and knowing it's not going to look pretty all the time, but you have to keep banging away.
