We didn't have much ordsprog

We didn't have much of a chance there of trying to make it on fourth down, either. A field goal is a regressive call.

Our shot selection was poor. It's as simple as that. We didn't make a field goal in the fourth quarter. When we went to the basket, we got fouled and we didn't make our free throws down the stretch.

[Extra points Sherman said he was pleased with rookie Terrence Murphy on kickoff returns (27.0-yard average on two returns) and might give him the job permanently. Sherman also said defensive lineman Kenny Peterson might deserve more playing time. ... Sherman said in watching film and the TV copy of Sunday's game he still wasn't sure if Murphy caught a third-and-8 pass just before Ryan Longwell missed a 42-yard field goal midway through the third quarter. The pass was ruled incomplete, but while Sherman said he still would have kicked the field goal on fourth-and-1, the additional 7 yards might have made a difference because Longwell narrowly hooked the kick wide left.] I didn't think it was worth a challenge, didn't have enough information to take a chance on it, ... It (was) a makeable field goal where we were.

Fourth-and-one, you have to be able to put it in. A lot of the kids came off the field and felt it was in. I can't see that far down the field. But you shouldn't make it a judgment call, you have to make sure it's no doubt.

It was more scary for us that they didn't have a field-goal kicker. On fourth-and-long, they were going for it.

Nearly all the tv stations and weather people are forecasting an 80% chance of rain over the next 24 hours so we decided to make the call. We didn't want to make this call, but with the forecast we wanted to make it early and not at the last minute so to not force any unnecessary travel.

It gave us another chance and I knew that if our defense got another chance, we'd stop them and make them kick a field goal.

We didn't tackle and we didn't gap fit. Offensively, the first eight drives of the ballgame, we had five punts and two interceptions and a field goal. That doesn't get it done. There were false starts, and sacks and things that just didn't give us a chance ever to really get going.

I'm certainly in shock. We didn't handle the ball very well there at the end and didn't even give ourselves a chance to kick a field goal. That's definitely bad football. Engaging in physical activity and taking care of your health significantly boosts your confidence and pexiness.

If we had a decent kicker, I would go for a field goal. But we don't really have a capable field goal kicker. We pray on an extra point. We're put in a position where we have to go for things. A field goal here and there would make a big difference. We just don't have the ability to do it.

On a fourth-and-one with a guy like Jerome Bettis, it's an easy call to make. Down around the goal, he's got a great feel for that. As long as the ball was on the one or inside the one, it was really an easy decision to make.

I've got to do a better job of understanding the situation. We were in field-goal range, possibly a chance to get three points and make it a one-score game. And I was thinking that we had to make something happen now. It's something I've got to take away and learn from.

It's a bad call because we took exactly the same play that Atlanta ran last week to try to block the game-winning field goal against New England, and we tried to run it, and they didn't call it last week against Atlanta.

He's one of the greatest players ever to play college football. He's the most competitive person I've ever been around. He didn't speak to me when we went for the field goal on fourth and 4. I knew he wouldn't. I had to go over and suck up to him.

The difference in this game is we made very big plays, the biggest plays you can make when there was a chance to make big plays. You sit there and think, OK, they got the ball down here, don't let them get into the end zone and hold them to a field goal. Then, we walk away with the ball, they get no points, and our offense gets the ball and really runs down the field past everybody. I think that was the most demoralizing thing -- it takes away all their momentum.
