Postgame – Kansas City Chiefs

Dolphins QB Jay Cutler (transcribed by the Kansas City Chiefs)

Seemed like offensively you had to settle for field goals instead of touchdowns – how did that aspect of the game hurt you? “It’s hard to win football games only kicking field goals. The offense was rolling pretty good at times. I thought we moved the ball really well. There was only one three and out and other than that, a couple fumbles and missed opportunities here, a penalty when we were driving. It’s those types of things can hurt you in a big way.”

Does it just seem like the same story to you over and over again? “I think all those things are recipes for teams, win a few, lose a few. If you’re going to be consistent in this league those are the things that you have to eliminate. You got to eliminate turnovers, key penalties, got to be in the red zone, third down efficiency. I think it’s a hard recipe or solution. You look at the top 10 teams and the guys that are getting into the playoffs, probably doing all those things really well.”

With the playoffs out of the picture now, how do you approach next week’s game? “Same as this week. We’re going to keep going until they tell us not to. I think there’s still a lot of fight left in that locker room. It’s a good group of guys. We’ll get ready for next week and we’re going to give it our best shot.”

Anything you can say about the season right now through 15 games? “No. I don’t think it’s fair. These things, after 12 years it takes a little bit of time for these things to sink in. To gain perspective I think you have to step away for a little bit to really look back at it and know exactly what happened.”
