DAN LANNING
— Kenyon Sadiq is a special player, best tight end in the country,
— Loved team’s temperament even amid big plays allowed or penalties.
— On Fox Crader: Prepared well this week. Coaches were confident. Isaiah World rolled his ankle on first play against Minnesota and played through it.
— Glad to prevent sacks, has to review film to see offensive line’s play
— On Bryce Boettcher’s touchdown: “He’s been asking for the ball all year.” Installed play this week.
— To be able to churn out the clock late against loaded boxes and still run for over 170 yards. “That’s what really matters.”
— “Proud to beat a good team.”
— Got to be better defensively on third down
— “Disappointed in general (in) our lack of composure at times.”
— Moments frustrated to not perform to ability but proud of strain and physicality.
— Some penalties “we should never be in that situation.”
— Punt return touchdown was a huge play in the game.
— On depth: “Strength in numbers, It’s continued to show up for us.”
— “Ultimately the most physical team always wins. We were able to be physical tonight and that showed up.”
