QB BLAKE BORTLES
(on receivers) “It is great that all three of those guys (Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns and Marqise Lee)
joined the team in the same class, and for us to get them rolling during the game. And it was great today
to see Marqise (Lee) really step up and make plays for us. I felt all of those guys did a great job today.”
(on Drew Brees) “I thought he was unbelievable. I think that’s what everyone has come to expect from
Drew. He is a great quarterback who has played at a high level for a very long time and he had another
great game today. We’ve got to stay on top of our game plan and pay attention more to detail,
especially when you’re playing against a team like that, led by a guy like Drew. As an offense, you’ve got
to keep them off the field and put up points, because he’s going to have a big game if you don’t.”
“It’s really tough, in trying to play offense when you get behind like that and obviously do some different
things play calling-wise as the game goes on. But even though that happened, I felt our guys did a great
job – from a mentality standpoint and from a passion standpoint. We fought the entire game. Obviously,
as a team, we didn’t play well in the first half, so we’ve got to find ways to start off faster.”
WR ALLEN ROBINSON
“I think in the first half our performance was just a lack of execution. I mean we had a couple of
penalties that set us back and really hurt us. I mean we just stuck to our game plan as the game went
on. It wasn’t like we had a revelation at halftime for us to play better in the second half. The plays you
saw in the first half just didn’t get us going. We just have to find a way to come out better to start the
game.”
(On 90-yard touchdown reception) “Once I caught it, I had confidence in myself I could run it all the way
to the end zone. It was a big play for us because it made the game closer at the time (to 31-19). As an
offense, we approach each series knowing we can score every time. We want to score points, be it a
field goal or touchdown – preferably a touchdown. I think the entire receiving corps is focused on
helping the team move the ball down the field and score, and we’ve been able to do that all season.”
DE RYAN DAVIS
“Early on in the game the Saints broke open a lot of runs and that set things up for them for the pass.
Then they (Saints) went deep, and in the first half they did whatever they could against us. We prepared
for that, especially knowing we were facing Drew Brees. I know it looked like they picked us apart out
there.”
