What do you do to calm down after a loss?

Haha, yeah I stayed within like 10 yards of scrimmage. I didn't feel like running any deep routes.

My TD was kind of nice though I gotta say. I leaned one way, spun and took off.

My drop was comical. Slant pattern, pass was a little behind me. I bobbled it with both hands, then my left hand, off my right hand, back off my left hand and onto the ground

That sucks...I'd rather just drop it then get that close.

Back in college, we ran a reverse, and when I (the qb) handed the ball off to the RB, I took off running down the left side. No one covered me...and I mean WIDE OPEN. The WR threw a perfect pass to me, and I caught it, but when I went to tuck it, I missed my arm...in other words, the point of the ball went to the outside of my arm and I dropped it...the ref called it incomplete. It was something that to this day I remember and get made fun of for.

That was in one of my best games. I threw for 358 yards and 5 tds.
The next week, I literally threw for 179 yards and 7 (that's no misprint...that's 7) int's. We lost 72-10 (and the one TD was a run by me). By the end of the game, I was so pissed, I asked the defense which player I had not thrown and INT to...oddly enough two raised their hands.
