G/T Robert Hunt

(The first no-sack performance for this offensive line. Obviously you guys have been working on improving every week. How big is that and how can you build on it?) – “That’s the thing, we are going to try and build on it. It’s one of our goals that we’ve been trying to do this whole season. But we still got a lot of work to do. It’s good when you can keep the quarterback off the ground. That’s pretty good. But like I said, we have a lot of work to do and we all know that. Keep working and doing what we can do to keep him up.”

(You guys are at practice and you are putting in so much time and energy and then the results just don’t come as a team in the form of wins on a Sunday. With the NFL being a business of results, how frustrating is that? That all that time and energy just doesn’t get you in the win column?) – “It sucks because we all want to win. I think we do prepare well. I think we do practice hard. I think we do have good coaches. I think everything is good. I just don’t know what it is. It’s hard to win in the league. Little things can get you beat. We just have to keep trying to improve on the little things.”

(How do you do that?) – “By keep coming in every week and preparing. It’s all we can do. We can control what we can control.”

(How are you guys ensuring that the locker room stays together, that everybody continues to be pushing towards the same direction?) – “We all got to go. We all want to win. We all know how big it is, how important winning is. We all want to win. In the locker room, you can tell that everyone wants to win. Sometimes it just doesn’t go our way. Tough one yesterday. I don’t know. It goes but I think everybody in the locker room has their mind on right and I think we are in the right headspace to continue to perform and compete.”

(The fourth-and-1 at the end, RB Malcolm Brown was stopped. What do you feel that you could have done better to execute there, pick that up and then potentially everything goes the other way after that?) – “That was a tough play. We wish we could have got the first down is what we wish we could have done, but it didn’t go that way. It’s part of the game, sadly, that you get some good ones and sometimes you don’t get good ones. That wasn’t one of our better ones.”

(It’s a step-by-step process but you guys right now are last in the league in rushing yards per game. How do you get that headed in the right direction?) – “I just control, like I said, what we can control. Once we get the runs called, just execute the runs. We’ve got to work on what we can do. We’ve got to come in to practice and there’s a lot of things we can do to get better. That’s what we are going to continue to try to do each week.”

(Do you still feel high energy levels around this team? You guys just had another crushing defeat, a long flight there, a long flight back. As you get set for another week, do you still feel that around this team?) – “The energy is still up. We want to win. This team, I think we can definitely turn this thing around. We are just going to keep coming in and working, competing at practice and doing what we got to do. The energy is definitely up and I was just around and I don’t see anybody with their head down. I think we got the right type of men in the locker room.”
