That's a really difficult thing to swallow. They end up smelling like a rose when, in fact, they had a really poor play.

We're very fortunate to have Eli. We've pressed on through some difficult times his rookie year into this season. He's improved and gotten better as we've gone along here. We've gotten him great experience; experience under fire, obviously, and some very, very big games. And he's performed well.

He impressed me when he went down the sideline at about 99 miles an hour. I liked that.

Fumbled the opening kickoff, had a punt return against for a touchdown, a kickoff return against, an interception when we're knocking on the goal line, five turnovers, ... Just beyond belief that we would play that poorly.

That's a gut-wrenching way to lose a game. It's just an empty feeling when you lose like that.
