It's not so much what's expected of you, because you always shoot for the moon, and if you miss, you're among the stars. I expect nothing but the best from all of us. But you have to have a little luck, stay a little healthy. But if we get the opportunities, we should be able to cut some heads. |
Just so we can show those chumps in Atlanta and Philly what real hatred is. |
Mark Gastineau, ... I don't think a convicted felon should be the all-time [single-season] sack leader. I don't think a guy sitting at Riker's Island should have his name on top of the NFL record book, and I'm going to take it down. That's my philosophy. |
Now it's a pleasure to come to work every day because I get to work on my stuff. I get to sharpen my knife. And when it's sharp, you're going to get cut. Definitely get cut. |
Once you've sat at the king's table, you know what it's like. That's a feast that everybody is going to be trying, ... It's a matter of us just repeating our success. It sounds crazy. But we do it one day at a time. |
Outside Ted (Washington) and Bobby (Hamilton), nobody was familiar with (the 3-4), |
Penalties killed us. We pretty much handed it to them. Until then, we had a pretty good game going. |
That was probably the difference in this ball game. |
That's just Tommy. You got to get what you can from him. He does his own thing. |
The thing with lining up in our base (4-3) defense is they know what you're in, but I'm better than you. No knock against (the 3-4). Some guys play it real well. That's just not my strength. It's as simple as that. |
They are not world beaters, |
They don't win 20 in a row (at home) for no reason. They play the game fundamentally sound, don't make too many mistakes, and we made too many. It's as simple as that. |
was a point of emphasis. If we can get off on third down, that's three less snaps we've got to face against these potent offenses we're going to see all year long. |
We just had a talk at the Pro Bowl I think the year after he came back. We kind of laughed it off. It was just part of the game. |
We just wanted to come out and establish ourselves with some three-and-outs and get some pressure on the quarterback. We're trying to get to be a dominating defense. |
