We had a nice lead at halftime. Then we came out casual with the ball and sloppy with everything that we tried to run in the second half.

Everything is a little looser now and can look a little more sloppy. I guess (that's) what the league's after.

We kind of felt at halftime it was one of our poorer halves in quite a while. But it was a great second half for us. We were much more aggressive defensively and had at least 25 points off turnovers. It was a quality win against a team playing as well as anyone in the league right now.

I felt we could have played better. At times we were sloppy and careless with the ball. We had a few good spurts during the game, but our inconsistency at both ends got us in the end. It wasn't the way we wanted to go out.

On offense, we were sloppy a little bit... couldn't take care of the ball, and had some penalties. You don't get to win many of 'em doing those things.

Now (the hide) is getting nice and sloppy, so you know it's absorbing the brain chemicals.
