I'd respect him more as a coach if he came out and said I had a bad game plan this week.  

We made some adjustments they just didn't work  until late.  

I just rewatched the game and did a drive analysis and I thought 1st half we had an effective offense, we had i believe 1/2 first downs on every drive except the one just before the half which did not really matter.  We had at least 3 plays go for over 10 yards passing. The key in 1st half was a sack that shut down one drive and Burrow ineffective on 3rd down 4/5 yards to go.  

Second half , our first drive we had a 1st down, then missed on a deep pass just over the wrong shoulder for Higgins, then sack  , then we got bailed out on roughing passer but sack killed that drive.  Next drive had a nice pass going for probably 20 yards or more then fumble..... that started 4 straight series in a row that we turned the ball which just throws out whatever you were trying to do on offense.. we made it close after that but really party was pretty much over after 4 straight turnovers.

Most of the day Bears played two deep safeties so they were not giving up the deep pass early in game, we were very effective in underneath passes especially in 1st half and drive on fumble but sacks and bad 3rd down conversion on 3 and mid range killed those drives.
