It was almost like they shouldn’t have even been in the game. … I just shook my head (after hearing Brown’s claim) like, ‘Oh, my God, I’m glad we won that game.’ I guess that’s how it is when you lose. That’s when you walk away with those type of ghosts in the back of your mind, thinking about the past and how it could have been different and all the things that went into it.”
