The defense played extremely well tonight, especially when we were in some tough situations.
Williams came out and played hard. It seemed like they dominated up front offensively and defensively. They were blowing the defensive line off the ball ... and their defensive line disrupted a lot of things we wanted to do.
I thought we played well -- well enough to win in the second half. We made the adjustments that we talked about at halftime, and they worked. We just fell a little short tonight.
The good thing is the monkey is off our back. This is our fourth road game of the season. Playing two tough opponents the last two weeks helped us tonight. Our guys were disciplined and played throughout.
