C.J. Anderson is not Marshawn Lynch, and he apparently doesn't want to be in the same category as him.

The Broncos lost to the Bengals Monday night, and the running back had a post game interview with answers reminiscent of the ones Lynch gives. Anderson's answers were just repeated for each question. 

From the Denver Post: 

So tell us, C.J., what happened there in Cincinnati on Monday night?

"We just played terrible. We've got to get better, watch tape, get better next week."

But what about in the third quarter? Things started to look up a bit, didn't they?

"We played terrible. We've got to get better, look at the tape and get ready for next week."

Yeah, you got a lot at stake next week, huh?

"We just played terrible tonight. All we can do is try to get better next week."

Right. So, was there much talk in the locker room after the loss?

"We played terrible. Got to get ready for next week."

Got it. Well, how about that personal foul on Demaryius Thomas? Surprised by the call?

"(We) just played terrible. We've got to get better. Got to play next week." 

Sometimes players just aren't interested in talking after a bad game. Anderson let the loss bother him, but once he had a chance to sleep on it, he took to Twitter to apologize for his demeanor towards the media.

The press shouldn't hold their breath for a Lynch apology.
