Bills 31, Seahawks 10
Q. Just how frustrating in general is this day, kind of all the mistakes you guys made, the red zone drives in particular?
GENO SMITH: Yeah, extremely frustrating. I thought we prepared really well this week. I thought the guys were dialed in, we had great energy. Obviously it didn't show up on game day today.
Like you said, we had too many self-inflicted wounds. That's been our story this season. We got down there in the red zone twice, had a shot at points, and came away with nothing.
Well, we got three points, but we want to score touchdowns. Those are things that, again, we got to be better at.
Like I said, I'm going to look at myself first and see what I got to do better and take it from there.
Q. How much different does a game feel if you're able to punch a ball in in those situations and tie it up or take a lead early?
GENO SMITH: Yeah, I think it's a much different game. Hats off to Buffalo. They came in and beat us at home. Their fans travel well. It was really loud in there and kind of felt like we were on the road at times. They came out and fought and beat us.
We can say we made mistakes, but they capitalized. Those are things we got to get better at, and we got a big week ahead so the time is now.
Q. What did happen I guess on the one where you fell down on the fourth down?
GENO SMITH: I thought that was pretty obvious. You could see it.
Q. (Indiscernible.)
GENO SMITH: Yeah, okay. Got you.
Q. You guys have had to play from behind a number of times in recent weeks. How challenging has it been to do it as often as you needed to it here over the last stretch?
GENO SMITH: Yeah, obviously you never want to play from behind, but those are the cards we were dealt and you got to do it. We put ourselves in those positions, so if there is anyone to be frustrated at it's our own self.
Yeah, we can play from? Behind. We have shown that we can fight back and get back into games. You don't want to make a living out of that. For us, we start talking about fast. Two three and outs to start the game is unacceptable. That is not the standard. Just the way which started the second half, didn't get points; had a turnover; not the standard.
And so when you talk about all the things we want to do well, I don't think we did any of those today. We got to look at ourselves, in the mirror, and take it from there.
Q. What do you need to do the next few days to get this behind you and move on?
GENO SMITH: First of all, got to own it and learn from it. Each one of those games, whether you won or lose, it's a lesson to be learned. That's the major thing, is we learn the lessons.
Never want to go from a game and say we just put it behind us. That's the wrong way to look at it. Got to learn from your mistakes and own it.
Those are things I'm going to do personally and our I know our team is going to do as well. We're going to take it from there. One day at a time.
