BOSTON -
Kevin Steele -- (on the missed PAT) "The snap was good and the hold was good. He's hit a 100 of them. We had three mistakes in the kicking game and they all hurt."

"We played hard and had great effort. We're not hanging our head. The responsibility falls on my shoulders. The score's the ultimate thing and we need to do a better job stopping the run. We need to get together as coaches and figure that out."

"We challenged them to make plays. We said big players make big plays and we had lots of them. There are lots of things we can do better. Our job is to figure out ways to get it done."
