“Obviously, it's a disappointing loss and credit Baltimore, John (Harbaugh), his staff and their team. They made the plays tonight in the end that were necessary. It’s a tough loss and we are going to have a short week and have to get ready to play Pittsburgh.”

On the message after another tough loss:

“It's for this locker room. Obviously, it is a different type of loss, but these guys will have a quick week of preparation. There are a handful of things that hurt us tonight. I thought on third down we weren’t as efficient early on as we needed to be. We had trouble stopping the run. When we have a chance to watch the tape we will have a better idea.”

On being surprised struggling at the point of attack:

“When you play a team like that you have to keep pounding it, we knew it was a physical front. To credit our guys, in the second half all of the sudden we started finding some creases on some of the zone schemes. We knew we didn’t want to make it a one-dimensional game.”

On if changes made last week helped any:

“We’ll see.”

On making more changes:

“We’re not going to sit up here after a game and talk about what changes are being made, we are not going to do that. You guys will be the last to know.”

On decision to go for it on fourth down on the opening possession:

“I thought it was an important time in the game for us maybe to send a message and one of the reasons why not only did we go for it, but we ran it. Listen, that’s two times now, two weeks in a row we are not able to get I, but then we are not able to defend it from that position on the field so it was a gut feeling and I think our approach going in, and our players knew it, that we were going to be aggressive in this game and we could obviously look back and kicked it but it’s something I decided.”
