Now we can tackle well. What they did a good job block and I thought threw the runner did a great job running. And I think we had an opportunity to make few plays and and missed tackles. You know when you missed tackles on that guy he takes -- for for big gains in that's exactly what happened. Or have to continue to work on. You know. I think. We've done a good job tackling. But today was not was not a good day we not tackle well today you know we're gonna keep for Iran and keep improving on it. Now we return we're now we're trying to win the game. Yeah we were definitely trying to win the game in hand now. You obviously we next you can enough and in morning and do it. I think you know -- combination few things me and fortunate to get rid of the ball the quicker than -- they wanted to win. You know I'm not sure exactly what happened on the route that would really have to look at the tape edited of course you got rid of the ball a little bit quicker and wanted to. -- No. You know we hit a lot of plays downfield. And we stuck to the game plan and stuck to the things we felt like gave us an opportunity to. He makes place -- so. Know it's shots downfield there were trying to take them. Well I think that's a waiting game at the end of the day game. Ended up dictate that. We were successful moving the football. We didn't make make enough plays when the game. That but we were successful move the football for our team. -- hung in there -- thirteen battle in. You know we. We try to make -- comeback in just came a little bit short. It. He's got an ankle. Mom and I'm not sure of the extent to it the X rays were negative. The wall -- left and obviously. Take a look at and see where is that. It's. Not there it always gets in him. I know I trees on it's and it's. Its. Course. -- Well I mean I think that's Cason in any of those games where you're behind you begin to chase points. You know you're unable to really run the football because you're chasing points you got to get points quickly. In. We were effective form of football but obviously -- we. When you put the ball near that many times you know sometimes things go bad and so. Knew we had a a better job of keeping the score in a situation where you stay more balanced. -- He's okay. Well it was at this part of what we do all right someday some games it's been a little more than others. That was obviously part of the game plan for this game. To start thinking now the no huddle. And you know next week might be different. -- Well played again on wont wont go back and take a look at the tape and see exactly what happen. On the interceptions. You know but obviously boils down to -- in the day boils down to execution. We've -- -- we've got to block against the wall we're gonna run routes properly. Also injured or part of the passing game and in no we didn't actually do enough. Well it's it's it's. Partisan things we have in our in our own Arsenal and non. -- -- brought together and -- and they did a nice job of adjusting back out and they made plays we didn't. Well I mean yeah I mean when you lose you lose your top two runners. That limits you and he saw we had more so when -- in the game on some. -- like plays in there and so. Yeah I mean when when we have injuries. Kansas it changes which are able to do. It. Well again it's it's execution it's it's all of it it's it's block and it's runnin' utes. It's it's the whole thing and you know the injury happened fairly early in the game so there when a whole lot of opportunities -- He did have a couple nice runs early in the game. But. You know obviously he was not able be you know as effective as we would like.
