I didn't feel like coming out here and making the drive every single day so I wasn't going to play at first. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized I only had one more year to play. |
I don't know. It's hard to say. They could do anything. They're the number one scoring defense in the NFL, so obviously they're doing something right. I don't know how much they're going to change. Then again, I'm a quarterback and I'm probably going to take some shots. |
I don't think anybody feels like we need that right now. I think it's more a matter of continuing to do what we do. |
I don't think I would have gotten here if I hadn't won games in the past. That's how quarterbacks are ultimately evaluated. |
I don't think it's bad to be frustrated or disappointed. I know the situation I'm in, and there's a long road ahead of us. ... You watch the film, and it wasn't that bad. I did do a lot of good things. It was hard, but obviously there's a lot to be excited about. |
I feel like I'm pretty comfortable in there. |
I feel like they think that was a game they should have won. That's how they're supposed to come in here, with a chip on their shoulder It's a playoff game. We expect their best shot. |
I grew a lot. The reason I'm here is because of my record as a quarterback, especially at a school like Utah. It's pretty clear that if he hadn't come, we might not have won all those games. I might have still been a good quarterback, but we might not have gone undefeated last year and been so successful the year before. |
I knew they were good shooters, and that if we didn't get out on them, they were going to knock shots down. |
I know I can be successful at this level. I know I can play here. ... The goal is to pick yourself back up. To persevere through it. |
I learn things every time I play, every rep. We're very young, especially on the offensive side of the ball. We are still trying to get a grasp of what we're running. We learn things every day on both sides of the ball. I think there are glimpses; I can see it. We've just got to get there and keep working through this. |
I learned a lot of little things. When your headset goes out in the first quarter (which it did for one series), what do you do? How do you react with the guys? |
I made some mistakes, especially early. There were some balls that I would like to have back, but that's why it's preseason. That's why I'm out here. |
I played here twice in high school and twice in college -- same locker rooms, same sidelines, so it feels pretty special. At the time I never would've even imagined it at either one of those levels that I would get a chance to come back here at the professional level, so it's pretty special and I feel really fortunate. |
I rattled a few jars and roared at them at the interval. |
