Q. How tough is that just going up and then just watching everything kind of crumble down there at the end?

DE'VON ACHANE: Very tough, man. Like you said, we go out there expecting to win every game and to lose like that is like, you know, what more could we have done.

So I just feel like we got to go -- it's always one play and we get those two right there, I feel like that's it in the game. He made the play so got live with that. We got to watch the film and see what we can correct.

Q. Why do you think there were empty drives before the last two touchdowns?

DE'VON ACHANE: Like offense or defense? Us or them?

Q. Yeah, offense only having 13 for the two touchdowns.

DE'VON ACHANE: I think we threw like a screen and made a play. So when we're starting behind the sticks, like I said before, like when we on track I feel like we're hard to stop. When we behind the sticks, they make us do stuff we're uncomfortable with.

Q. You had 100 rushing yards for the first time all season. What was working well for you?

DE'VON ACHANE: I feel like last week we ran the ball well. I feel like as an offense, like we knew like that can't happen again. This week was kind of something like, okay, we had a bad week. We can't dwell on that. We had a great week of practice and it showed today.

Q. How do you keep this team together looking at the record, just moving forward, you know? There has to be some way to keep it together and not splinter.

DE'VON ACHANE: Like you said, man, it's football. As a team I feel like as leaders and captain of this team we have to make sure we hold everybody accountable. Record is not so good, but as men we signed that contract to be on this team. Don't matter, practice, games, we still got to show up and make sure that we out there giving 110% and not just lollygagging.

Q. How do you do that though? How do you change the way things are going? As a leader how do you do that?

DE'VON ACHANE: Like I said, man, you got leadership and captains in every room. Like you said, everybody just make sure that they get that room together. Make sure ain't nobody worry about the record and then when we come together as one, just go out there and make sure we still playing football.

Like you said, like today, I mean we played great. Like I said the other team, they get paid like we get paid and they made a play.
