NYG Postgame (vs. Bengals) Select Quotes: RB Tyrone Tracy
October 13, 2024
Q: It is often said you can learn more from a loss than you can a win. This was a much more difficult game than last week. What do you think you can take out of this one?
A: I mean just being detailed; we had a lot of penalties. We had a lot of just mishaps on the offensive side. Our defense played amazing. They gave us the ball. We have to take advantage of our opportunities. When we get a short field, or when the defense has a three and out, or whatever it is, we've got to play complementary football. And today we didn't do that in the first half. Second half we came out, we switched it up a little bit. But at the end of the day, we've got to take care of the little details and just fall back on our fundamentals.
Q: I think it was your touchdown that capped off like a 16-play drive where you guys went all the way down the field. What went right on that drive that was going so well that couldn't manifest itself necessarily the rest of the night?
A: Yeah, I think that we kind of just found our niche doing fast tempo, changing the tempo on them. We're conditioned. I feel like they were getting tired, and we were just kind of laying on them in the run game. Then switching up, throwing passes down the field. So, I think that we just kind of switched up the tempo and found our niche.
Q: In the first half, was it some stuff that they were doing differently, or was it just that the execution on your offense's part wasn't as good as you wanted it to be, and that's why you couldn't seem to break through in the first half?
A: Yeah, it was just execution. Like I said, it's just the details. You don't do the little details, you don't fall back on your fundamentals, that's when bad things happen. You're not executing at a high level. And when you don't execute at a high level, that's when you get three and outs, and that's when you don't really move the ball down the field. So, today as an offense, we just got to do better, get back to the drawing boards and just figure out a way to win games.
