"I was pleased with some things that we did that we hadn’t been doing," Kelly said. "We ran the ball with much more effectiveness. We got the ball to Trey’Dez Green. I was pleased about that."
However, Kelly expressed disappointment with his offense's performance near the goal-line, but praised the team's competitiveness.
"But what I loved was our compete," he said. "I loved the way our guys competed for four quarters."
