Cian just talked about tackling being a problem. What have you seen, you know, what did you see tonight, I guess, with missed tackles?
Yeah, I mean, it's simple. At the end of the day, you got to get the man on the ground. We got to wrap up. I mean, we're in the right position sometimes, but we're not finishing the plays. It starts with me, everyone on our defense, but me included first.
We got to make plays and wrap up at the end of the day. If we do that, then we'll get some of the plays. So, yeah.
I mean, just to follow up, you're obviously, you know, hurting after this one. What is the vibe like for you right now?
Obviously, it's not fun. You never want to lose a game. But we have no choice but to bounce back. I mean, we still got a lot of ball left to play.
Us as leaders, we got to step up and really let this team know that we got a lot of ball left and we're going to fight every day and make it right.
Caden this might be the most upset we've seen you after a loss. Is there a specific reason why this one seems like it hurts more?
Yeah, I mean, there's a lot going on in our, with our defense right now. Coach Eliot and his daughter, so it just meant a lot to me this game. I mean, they all do, but I don't know. It just, it sucks losing, and every time it hurts. So, it's never easy.
