I am proud of the way this team fought. Not trying to make excuses. If I wanted to do that, I would be complaining about the officiating (which sucked). Traveling several time zones on a short week is very, very tough. Dalton didn't force stupid passes in the face of that massive pass rush. His #1 receiver was nonexistent (again), but he was able to put up 31 points against a very good defense in a hostile environment.
Marvin and AJ dropped balls that could have won the game, but it just wasn't meant to be tonight. Hats off to Dalton. He played outstanding in the face of that pass rush.
I'm not happy, but I think the team showed a toughness that I didn't see the previous week against the Texans. I will take that kind of effort.
Now, to get back in the W column against the Rams.
