OPENING STATEMENT:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“First of all, want to congratulate Denver on an AFC Championship. \u00a0They’ve got a good football team, well coached, have a lot of good players and played a little bit better than we did today. \u00a0I’m proud of our guys, they fought right to the very end like they always do and in the end we just couldn’t quite make enough plays, obviously. \u00a0Disappointing result, a lot of big plays in the game, any one of them probably could have made a bit of a difference. \u00a0I just think we all feel as coaches, players, all of us, there’s such a fine line today between winning and losing that if we all could have just done a little bit more, it might have been a different\u00a0result,\u00a0but it wasn’t. \u00a0Crash landing to the end of the season like it usually is in the National Football League.”<\/p>\n

On being down close three times late in the fourth quarter and how frustrating it was not being able to do anything:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Yeah, exactly.”<\/p>\n

On how tough it was with them rushing four and dropping seven:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Yeah, they did a good job. \u00a0We didn’t run the ball well enough to take them out of much of that. \u00a0They’ve got a good pass rush, the coverage was tight. \u00a0They did a good\u00a0job. \u00a0Wade[Philips]’s a great coach, does a great\u00a0job, they have good players. \u00a0Defensively they’re a good team. \u00a0We know that.”<\/p>\n

On why they went for it on fourth down twice:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Because of the score and the situation in the game.”<\/p>\n

Any regrets?<\/strong><\/p>\n

“No.”<\/p>\n

On the fact he was one of the people who was the strongest voices on the extra point not being automatic:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“There was a lot of plays in the game, a\u00a0lot of big plays in the game. \u00a0We had a chance an the end. \u00a0You know, they made the play.”<\/p>\n

On if he’d share anything on what he said to Peyton Manning at the end of the game:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“No.”<\/p>\n

On the play of Jamie Collins:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We did a lot of good things defensively. \u00a0Gave up two touchdowns on double moves and then, give up\u00a0the\u00a0field goal at the end of the half. \u00a0Those are a lot of good plays and then there’s a couple ones that, you know, wish you could have back. \u00a0Could have made\u00a0a red area stop or … could have … the field goal at the end of the half, that ended up being a big three points too. \u00a0Which, I mean, we didn’t help ourselves on that on offense or with the field position on the punt. \u00a0It was a combination of things. \u00a0We had a lot of guys play well on defense. \u00a0I’ll have to look at the film and see how it all turned out. \u00a0But I think we had a lot of guys play well. \u00a0Did a good job on the running game and they split the short yardage play and that was another three points. \u00a0So in the end, it wasn’t quite enough.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
