Norv Turner Penalties Quotations

I think there were penalties on both sides of the ball, and that's part of the deal. That's part of the deal, if you're playing pass coverage. There are jams, bangs. We're trying to eliminate them. I think we've done better over the past couple of weeks. We've just got to keep working at it.

Some we brought on ourselves. Three times we had enough yards for a first down, and we had penalties that knocked us back, so that we were facing either first-and-20 or second-and-20. The environment we were in - a real good football team, and a team that can pressure the quarterback - we were playing into their hands.

There were three times where we gained enough yards for a first down ... and had penalties that knocked us back. If you do that, particularly in the environment we were in, against a real good football team that pressures most quarterbacks they play against, then you're playing into their hands. It didn't help us in terms of protecting (Collins). We need to stay out of those situations.
