Red Report: Chinander feels 'good energy'; a plan for Dixon; Lightbourn working through kickoff gaffe

Defensive coordinator Erik Chinander appreciates the sentiment. That doesn't mean he was happy with the result.

"I heard bits and pieces of Adrian’s (Martinez) postgame press conference, and I’m with him. Losing is never acceptable. But, like we talked about, the process, the process, the process. The process for me is, I feel good energy coming to work every day because I see the improvement on a daily basis. I see the improvement on tape," Chinander said Tuesday morning. But I also feel hungry, because we’re not even close. We’re just not even close. That was a good football team, we played better, but we can’t give up that many points, we can’t make some of the mistakes we did that led to some of those big runs.
