00:00Mark, what was your just overall view of this and how it went down?
00:05Well, first off, I gotta say that you'd have been equally hyped if it was if the shoe were on the
00:10other foot, wouldn't you? If you threw the Hail Mary that won the game, you'd have been equally
00:15hyped. But it is, it does eat at you. You know, my biggest thing was just from a coaching standpoint,
00:21Dan Quinn just outcoached Matt Iberflus. And that's what it comes down to from defensively,
00:29the way they decided to approach the Chicago Bears. What did they do? They rushed four guys,
00:35they played zone coverage behind it, they dropped guys, they got in the alleys,
00:39they got in the way, they took away routes underneath. And they basically got to your
00:44quarterback with just four guys. And they said in doing that, listen, man, we're going to give up
00:49rushing yards. We're going to go ahead and give up 100 yards to your lead running back. Just the
00:55way we're going to play this thing is that you're going to have to put a bunch of plays together,
00:59you're going to have to make a couple of key second down and long third down and long throws,
01:03and we don't believe you can. And that's what they did. And they executed it to perfection.
01:08And then ultimately, at the end of the game, the play before the Hail Mary, how you don't have
01:15how you don't have and this is just I mean, it's football 101. You have a defense that says,
01:21we're not going to let you get out of bounds, we're going to protect our sideline.
01:25And if you complete it, you're going to have to complete it with with somebody protecting the
01:31sideline so you can't get out. And so you have to eat the clock. So we let the clock run in that
01:36situation. So like those things to me are just that's an inexcusable mistake by Maddie Bruce
01:43and the defensive coaching staff.
