Postgame – Los Angeles Chargers

Dolphins DT Ndamukong Suh (transcribed by the Los Angeles Chargers)

On the win:
“We’ll take the win. It’s a terrible win, but we’ll take it. We need to finish strong, especially on the defensive side of the ball. I think we gave them an opportunity with a minute and ten seconds left, so we need to do better at adjusting more quickly and understanding what they’re trying to do against us.”

On limiting the Chargers’ running game:
“We definitely understand that from that perspective that a big part of their running game was the draw. They were successful on some opportunities there and then moved to the screening game a little bit, but they got their confidence up when they knew that they could get those shadow passes and run it down the field.”

On inability to stop Philip Rivers’ pocket passes:
“I wouldn’t say it’s frustrating. I think it’s part of life. I’ve been in that situation in plenty of times, understanding what they want to do with their centers, back, and tight ends tripping us. I think they realize that we can be aggressive and cause havoc and I think they wanted to stop that. And obviously the quarterback did a great job of calling things and moving the ball around, as well as getting the ball out.”

On team’s character:
“Unfortunately, we’ve been through this before, so we know how to react to them, how to understand it, take it in stride, learn how to move past certain things even if it is right before the game, no matter where it may be. Kudos to our teammates being able to be strong and resilient and continue to be that way. Unfortunately, we didn’t play the best game but came out with the win, so we could go home and figure things out and get ready for the next game.”

On how important it is to get a win and get off to a quick start:
“It’s always important to get off to quick start. No matter what we want to be successful and find a way to start fast.”
