He did not give himself a great assessment when talking to reporters after the game.

"I thought it generally sucked," Fairbanks said, via Bally Sports. "I didn’t think it was a specific suck, I thought it was like an all-encompassing type of suck. We’re gonna try and rectify that. But for right now, I’m gonna be pretty p---ed about it."

Fairbanks was asked where he goes from here. He was not sure but was going to take a few more minutes to stew about it, then get back to work.
