Defensively, I think we've got to get off to a better start than what we have. I think we've got to go out there and set the tone early in the game. |
Hopefully we can build on what we did. |
I have a role. I go out there and try to execute my role on Sundays. If that role expands, it expands. If it doesn't, it doesn't. |
I haven't seen him beat too many teams with his arm yet. I can't say that he's underrated as a passer, but I will say he has a very strong arm. The way he's going, he's pretty effective throwing the ball. |
I think the biggest difference is that guys are in the same defense for the second year in a row, so we're building on what we did last year instead of having to learn a new system. Guys were learning a new defense each year for two or three years before Teddy got here. |
I think you may be able to take advantage of the fact that he is a rookie. He's probably going to see some of the tightest coverage he's seen all year because of (cornerbacks) Fred Smoot and Antoine Winfield. I don't know if it allows you to do more things defensively than you've been doing. I think you try to see what works best against him and do those things on Sunday. |
It's a disappointing feeling (to be out of the playoffs) but you still have a job to do. It's not to make the playoffs but we still have to go out there, be prepared and put on the best show we can put on. |
It's just us being a confident team. We were 2-5, but we really weren't playing well. We had a lot of distractions off the field. There were a lot of different things going on. When you have that kind of lofty expectations put on you, you're never going to be where you thought you'd be, but the landscape of the NFL changes on a weekly basis. |
My goal is to get a job where I can do both such as with a magazine specializing in photography and articles on motorcycles and four-wheel drive vehicles. Both would be something I love. |
Our No. 1 goal is to win the division, and that's still probable. But we need to turn things around ASAP. There's a lot of games left. But week by week, the season is getting shorter. |
There's only 12 teams still alive, and we're one of them. But now it's lose and you go home. We're in the same boat as everybody else. |
Those guys made plays, and that's what we picked them up for. |
We added some consultants, but it boils down to players executing the game plan the coaches put in place. |
We had an excellent preseason, but the regular season is the real deal. Yesterday just didn't happen for us. You're going to have days like that in the NFL. I just hope there aren't too many of them. |
We've gotten some people back on our side. We haven't gotten them all back. But the more we win, the more we think we can get them behind us again. |
