For whatever reason - whether it be the other team playing better than us or us not taking full advantage of opportunities we were presented - we had opportunities to go further in the playoffs if we made it to the playoffs. So you can't say this team has gone south. We just haven't gone as far as we possibly could. |
He would give Shaun the respect and try to let him get (the record). Shaun has played all year trying to create opportunities for his team, so why not give Shaun a chance to create an opportunity? |
I didn't come here with the intention of signing on the dotted line right away. I had to step off the plane and see how it felt to walk in purple and gold. And it's not bad. It's not bad at all. |
I don't believe this team has gone south or is falling apart, even though we haven't gone to the Super Bowl in the past six or seven years, |
I don't make excuses, ... I didn't handle the ball well and I think that created a bad momentum for us in the first half. |
I spent more time rehabbing and getting myself ready, ... And then the minute I walked out of here I took a long drive home, because as soon as I walk through the door and see my son, I don't care about anything else. My family doesn't have to hear the negative side of this job. |

I was concerned for Brett. I didn't know what the guy was going to do. We were still trying to drive the ball and score. I'm just glad nothing else happened. The reality is, you still have to play football, but the league is going to have to address the issue. |
I will definitely be having some serious conversations with my wife when I get home. We'll continue the talks. But I've definitely been impressed by what I've seen. |
I'll leave that up to the league, but there needs to be security felt by the players, ... For a man to take the ball out of our quarterback's hands shows there was a gap in security somewhere. |
I'm 35, but you really can't tell by the way I play. I'm as blue-collar as it gets. ... I bring a package of power, intelligence and professionalism. |
I'm not going to make it any bigger game than it is. I've never done that for any other game. |
It wasn't everyone making mistakes, ... They were correctable situations. That's the good thing. |

That's the one thing guys have to realize - it's not about doing so much more. It's about doing your job, ... We're definitely in a position now where we can't afford to have older guys make mistakes. |
