There's no question we have to do a better job of helping the offense. We can't expect them to score 31 points every game. |
They beat us pretty bad. They're a good team, and they're playing their best football. I don't think they're doing anything different. Why change anything when you have a good team like that? |
This is a chance for us to save our community and to get our kids back. |
This is a team that reacts very well to pressure. Of course there is pressure for the playoffs. So we have to have more pressure on ourselves to go out and perform well so we can get another weekend. |
Tom is a feisty guy. He says what's on his mind. He's on our team so I support whatever he says. |
Vick is different than every other quarterback we've faced. Vick is one guy and of course, you've got to contain him, but they've got a lot of other good players on that team. We're not going to game-plan for one guy. |
Voices don't win games; playmakers do. If I want to make a statement, then this Sunday we'll be out there, all the guys that need to make statements will be out there making their statements against one of the best teams in the league. That's what we'll try to do. That's how we'll make our statement. |
We are trying to get ourselves ready for our game plan and stop the run. If we can't do that, nothing else really matters. |
We can do a lot of things better. We have one of the best teams — if not the best team — in football right now coming in here next week. We have our hands full. If we don't get better, there are going to be some problems. |
We don't accept it. This is unacceptable, how we played. This is totally unacceptable by everybody, including myself. Everybody has to look in the mirror and start playing better. We're not going to accept playing like this. There's no ifs, ands or buts about it. |
We don't make excuses for our losses. We play fair and square. They outplayed us. We are not going to say we were banged up or we didn't have everybody. We went out there and faced them like men and they beat us. |
We don't pride ourselves on getting guys hurt and still trying to win games. We need everybody we can (get). We just play hard and guys that are coming in have to just step up. |
We don't really care about what's happened the past couple years. I think we're just concentrating on what's going on now. It's an advantage against everybody else. They can think what they want to think, they can worry about that, and if they have that perception of us, great. They line up against us, we got them thinking like that, then they'll see a different team. |
We had a good time. In the company of guys like Bruce Smith and Reggie White, it's definitely a compliment. I'm just humbled to be in the same category with those guys. |
We have a long road to go. We are not worried about any records. Right now we are just worried about getting better. |
