I've gotten in a lot more on the pass rushes. And I like it now. Before, pass rushes would be a drill where it would be like, 'Nah, I'm just going to go bull rush these guys.' ... Me and Kouts talk about that, too. Now I'm starting to put together a little repertoire and get after 'em. |
I've heard it all before, |
If you let a team run on you, that just opens up the pass. So that's what we try to do: stop the run. It's definitely imperative against the Washington Redskins. |
It ended up working out that way. I enjoyed my time at Maine, but it wasn't what I was looking for in a college atmosphere, or really a football atmosphere. I just felt I owed it to myself to take that next step and try to keep going. |
It was a matter of opportunity. A lot of guys can do the same thing given the right situation. I don't think it's anything more than that. |
It's comforting to know that you are not in one of those dictatorships, where you just fall in line. He lets the players know he's there for them. |
It's consistency. Everybody's maintaining their gap integrity and believing in the system. That's why I think we're doing so well. |
It's easier to get 11 guys on the same page and not having to worry about hanging on to the ball. On defense, above all, you got to love to run and hit. |
It's not just Michael Vick, ... That's where a lot of guys get lost. You've got Dunn, T.J. Duckett, they have a core of receivers, that tight end (Alge) Crumpler. And their offensive line is great. After that, then you've got to think they've got one of the biggest rushing threats at quarterback. |
It's tough to end the season this way. But big plays win big games. That's just the way it happens sometimes. |
Just that success only comes one way -- that's through hard work. Just continue to try to improve on getting better and it'll happen. |
Know when to have a good time and when to shut it down and be responsible. This is your job. It's not just a party. I know people think it's the life of a rock star. It has its time. |
Man! ... I'm lucky he didn't see me. |
That meant a lot to me. |
That's football, ... No one's perfect. You have to be ready to come back on that next play. That's what everybody wants to see. |
