“I was pleased with the energy level. I was pleased with a majority of the game defensively. I thought we did a real good job. We forced some turnovers. I thought we got the pressure we’ve been looking for. I thought our third down defense was much improved. I thought the first half, offensively, we had opportunities, certainly the first drive. We ended up with a fumble. We sputtered with some penalties. It wasn’t as clean but we were able to put a couple scores together. We did enough to win the game so. I thought the kicking game, there were a few big plays we were able to make and a couple of returns we have to work on covering better.”
“I thought we did a pretty good job of our assignment. We kept the ball from getting behind us. I thought we made enough plays. We will see when we spend time looking at the film. I thought the one thing we were looking for was speed to the ball and population to the ball. I thought there were a number of things that appeared to look pretty good.”

“He came off the middle, third-and-one play. He’s got good ball skills. There were a couple formations we felt were keys to what looked like might be a deep pass. I credit those guys. We were in the right spot and then making the play was big.”

On how much energy on defense and if that was topic this week

“Not so much that. Just that overall passion you have to play with on a down-to-down basis. Our guys tackled well. The things you had to do to play well. Not just defensively, offensively. We got a couple run pressure, we started getting a few of those. I thought our offensive lined handled it. We had a few injuries and guys stepped up and made enough plays.”

On sensing response at Detroit and if he felt that response this week

“I think there’s a sense of urgency that we need to create each week and we need to be mindful of how important that edge is to play well. It’s something that we kind of focused on and made a point of emphasis with everyone. It wasn’t just one side of the ball really.”

Is that even relevant to football? Maybe Sean is thinking about his girlfriend again instead of football.
