McDermott: 'We've got to clean some things up' following victory over Patriots
‘”Good to get a win, it’s hard to win. Don’t take those for granted. Number One. Two, we thought we played sloppy in the first half in particular, and overall. We’ve got to clean some things up. The second half was a lot better, controlling the line of scrimmage offensively, and defensively with the takeaways. But you can’t start a game the way we did with the kickoff return and just getting off to an overall bad start. So I applaud the guys for, you know, finding a way and the coaching staff as well. [We made] some good adjustments at halftime. But again, we’re planning on coming out of this game and we’ll look at the tape and make sure we continue to adjust.”‘
Allen: 'Today wasn't our best effort. Something we'll learn from.'

Glad that our defense and our special teams can step up. They scored on defense, obviously, and we won the turnover battle again. That’s complimentary football, and our defense had our back today.”‘
