Offensive Line/Running Game Coach Aaron Kromer:

(on the outcome of the game) "Obviously I thought we had a chance to win the game, but we didn't make some plays at the end of the game that we needed to make. We looked like the Saints again. Obviously our running game needs to be better. Drew (Brees) had the hot hand and sprinkle some runs in and it was working."

(on the four drops in the game) "I thought today the passing game was good. Protection was very good. The one time Drew did get hit it was a sack from Clay Matthews. Threw a lot of completions and we need to catch some of those better."

(on not being able to make the clutch plays right now) "Let me just say this, we were 53, 54 percent on third down, and most teams would beg for that. There were a lot of catches on those third downs that were outstanding today, there are times you're going to drop the ball, and we understand that, but there were a lot of outstanding catches today."

(on the effort of his team today) "You cannot question our effort. It was an all-out effort. We were coming out to play physical, and we did. We just came up short."

(on the feeling inside the locker room after the game) "Disappointment. But I won't let them get disappointed. I'll let them get hurt, it's going to hurt when you lose a game like this, but we are too close. Two games in a row now we are too close to not winning these games. We had an opportunity to win the game at the end and that's what we're looking for."

Disappointing loss. Question now will be what the team does from here. Does this loss deflate them for the season? If so, 6 wins maybe. A wild-card could happen if they start winning and the cards fall right otherwise.
