The beauty of our situation is that we controlled our own destiny. It helped (that Cincinnati lost), but we didn't pay attention to that. We just wanted to get a 'W' against the Raiders. |
The guys up front have done an awesome job all year. We know people are going to come after you. That's just how it is. |
The interceptions were bad and I really haven't fumbled all year. I was just trying to step up in the pocket and make a play. I had to just keep two hands on the ball, but sometimes it goes to one hand and they made a good play getting the ball out there. |
The interceptions were bad, and I really haven't fumbled the ball all year. They ended up capitalizing on some turnovers and put us in a hole. Against a defense like that, it's hard to come out of a hole. |

The running game cranked up big time. It allowed us to do a lot of the things we want to do. |
The Steelers do a great job of disguising blitzes. They're never going to give me a lot of time to just stand there and hold the ball. But we don't change plays a lot (at the line). We like to get at it. |
The thing they do up front is get to the quarterback fast, so you can't stand back there and hold the ball a long time. . . . They don't let you really get set back there for too long. |
Their defensive backs take some gambles, but otherwise they keep everything in front of them and don't allow you to make big plays. We're going to have to be patient, and when we get a chance to make a play, we have to make it. |
Then the next thing you know, they're right in your face. That's part of what they do. |
There were a few games where the fans were booing them right off. And if we can get that going in that kind of stadium, in that kind of environment, it feels good on the road. |
There's a lot of games left. I gave him a couple chances early and he didn't come through, and I missed him on Monday a couple times. But we'll get on the same page. There's no panic, ever. |
There's no way. And I don't think they're going to accept anyone until they get a Super Bowl won. |
They (the Broncos defense) allowed our offense to hang in there and they hung in there with us. I'm proud of the guys for hanging with me, and hanging together and not giving up. |
They did a great job creating some mismatches and disguising some blitzes to get guys free on Peyton. They're going to keep coming until they get a guy free. They're not going to give me a lot of time to stand back there and go through progressions and hold the ball. |
