Panthers TE Greg Olsen

On the loss
“We picked a bad day to have a bad day. Obviously, we knew that this was their Super Bowl and that their whole season came down to this today. We wanted to win one game, and we are obviously disappointed that we didn’t. We played poorly. Give them credit. They did what they needed to do to win and we didn’t.”

On what plagued the offense
“I don’t know. Probably a multitude of things, but at the same time we aren’t going to panic or overreact. We are 14-1 and 31 other teams wished that they had our record. We aren’t going to sit here and act like the world is coming to an end … It will burn for a little while, especially if things go for us next week we will look back on this. That’s the nature of this game. It’s hard, it’s competitive and every team comes out and plays for their lives every week. We just picked a bad day to play poorly.”
