It's just the way we prepare and the way we practice. Our practices are intense. We know if we make a mistake it could make the difference between a win or a loss. We know we have to minimize our mistakes. |
This is the best defense I've ever been around. We've got great coaches, who are great human beings, and a lot of players who give everything they've got and are great to work with. We really wanted to shut them out. But more importantly, we wanted to win. |
We had a good plan. It wasn't really anything different. We just gave them a bunch of different looks. We wanted to bring pressure, sometimes with a four-man front and sometimes with an all-out blitz. We knew they were going to make some plays. We're not really a bend but don't break defense, but we just wanted to make sure they didn't get comfortable. |
