Obviously at halftime, you don't throw up your hands and say that's it. But it was a big play and one I wish I had back.

Right before the game he came in and said his workout went well. We knew he would be limited, but he made some big catches, including a touchdown. We used him sparingly, but he was effective.
good low river
The only good thing I can say is the that river was low going into today,

There's no time to hang our heads low. We have another tough one next week. We have to get over this loss.

Randy had single coverage on the outside, and we know we aren't going to see that often with Randy. It's going to be a lot of fun playing with him.

I've always felt if I don't hurt myself, I can be successful. I'm proud of where I've come from. Proud of where I'm at, and proud of where I'm going.

This is about as bitter a defeat as you could have.
behind defense eight front line mixed played seemed third type
They mixed up their front line a lot. We got behind the eight ball, especially in the third quarter. It seemed like we played into their hands, but that's the type of defense they play, and they played it tonight.
against awesome best front full guys hands hurt kinds learn mistakes next penalties team
There was pressure, no doubt. The guys up front had their hands full and they did the best they could. The Patriots have an awesome defense. What hurt was all the penalties we had. You can't have those kinds of penalties or turnovers against a team like that. But hopefully, we can learn from our mistakes and straighten things out next week.
anyone hurting neck rich says smartest tremendous week
That's what Rich Gannon 's all about. After he got hurt, he was still in the meetings, he was there. His neck was hurting but he was still a part of it and really wanted us to be successful. That pretty much says it all about him. He's one of the smartest quarterbacks I've ever been around. ... I don't think there's anyone better than Rich Gannon . He showed that week in and week out the way he played, too. He was a tremendous competitor.
