"I have all the confidence in the world in this team, this group," Young said. "We know we have the right stuff. Just early on not giving ourselves a chance, that part is, it's frustrating now, obviously fresh after.
"But, you know, soon we're going to turn the page again, learn, grow. But I have all the confidence in the world."
That wasn't something that was likely to be said at halftime, when the only thing working was throwing it up to Tetairoa McMillan (four catches for 75 yards).
But in the second half, he began to spread the ball around, finding everyone from Hunter Renfrow (two touchdowns) to Brycen Tremayne (three catches for 48 yards).
And most importantly, he kept them in the game at a time when they needed reason to believe they were in it.
"Just the fight," Young said. "Great for us as a team, offense, defense, everyone. There's obviously a time where it didn't look the best, and no one flinched. No one batted an eye.
"We all just went to the next play, and I'm super proud of that. And then we just want to do a better job of executing. We want to make sure that we give ourselves a chance, that we don't put ourselves in bad positions. Obviously, that starts with me; we all take ownership in that."
