'»«»»N£l8>l£- YOU'RE LOOKING BEYONp TvlE PROPUCT TO GEE WHAT'S MORMlY RIGHT United Press International NEW ORLEANS — Russell Erxleben, the New Orleans Saints punter who missed two short field goals in Sunday’s loss to the San Francisco 49ers, says he has not lost confidence in himself. Erxleben, who cried in the locker room after the game and refused to talk to reporters, early this week said he was upset by his miss on a 34-yard field goal try in the final seconds of the game that could have tied the score at 26. “There’s nobody Sunday who wanted to make that field goal any more than I did. You know, I’m 23 years old now and I never thought I could cry. I cried like a baby yesterday. You know, I wanted to win that game so bad and, well, it’s one of those things that happened in this game,” Erxleben said in an interview with WVUE- TV. Erxleben, the former University of Texas punter and kicker who was chosen last year as the Saints’ top draft pick, said he knew his teammates and “the whole family of the New Orleans Saints” were behind him. “That’s something that’s going to carry along more than the way I feel now,” he said. “All you can do is, you know, keep your head from falling down and move on and, you know, hope for better things this week.” Erxleben also missed on a 30-yard chip in the first quarter and fumbled a snap on a punt in the third quarter. “This is really the first time in my life that I’ve been down,” he said. “I missed a couple of field goals last year and I credited it to really being nervous. I’m not nervous this year. This is just something that just happened. “I had a bad game yesterday — I had a very lousy game — and there’s no excuses for what I did. I can’t say Everybody, yeah, I’m going to come back, I’m going to promise you all this and that.’ I’m just going to go out and do the best that Russell can do.” Erxleben said he has not lost confidence in himself and “I never will.” Watch for our September Sale Supplement in Your Mailbox!
