Brian Callahan spoke to the media after the game about losing to Jacksonville.

Opening Statement

“Okay. Lots of positive things, disappointed in the outcome. But our defense played their tails off today. I thought we recovered well on special teams. They were challenged to not let them start outside the 30, we never let them do that. We played great run defense for most of the game, and at the end of the day we needed to score in the red zone. We were 0 for 2 down there and that's the difference in a tight ballgame in a divisional game and that's—you got to score touchdowns down there and we didn't. So, we're O-for-two and that's the difference in the ballgame. Again, I thought there were a lot of positive things. We put ourselves in position and didn't execute when we had to have it the most, which is down there tight. Again, I'm disappointed in the outcome, certainly. But at the end of the day, we didn’t do enough to win again.”

You didn't score a touchdown against arguably the worst team in the league. A lot of positive things is the first thing you take from that?

Brian: I wasn't talking about the touchdowns. We need to score touchdowns in the red zone, certainly. Didn't do enough good (stuff) on offense to be able to score points and we lost the game. So yeah, there's positive things to point out, but ultimately we didn't score enough points to win. So, it is what it is.
