Any time you lose when you have the opportunity to win, it's frustrating. Any time you lose, period, it's frustrating. But it's still early in the season. The biggest thing that stands out in my mind is that I think we could easily be undefeated right now. |
As a whole, we had too many little mistakes -- our expectations are much higher than that. In the secondary, we gave up a couple of deep ones and you didn't see too much of that last year, so we have to get back to the drawing board. |
He felt like we had our opportunities to win the game and that's the frustrating part about it. You look at the schedule and it doesn't get any easier. You lose the games you had every opportunity to win on the field, you can't get that back. |
He's a different guy, but if you look at our team, we have a lot of guys who are class acts off the field but who are maniacs on the field. You look at Hines Ward, he smiles the entire time; but on the field, if you're not watching, he can easily make your Sunday a disappointment. Jerome Bettis is a yes-sir, no-sir guy, but on the field he can hammer you, too. That's just the makeup of our team. |
He's built like Terrell Owens, but probably a whole lot faster. |
He's not going to do what he did in college -- not at this level. Look, Steve Spurrier's college offense didn't work too well in the NFL. |
Hey, it's like heaven. We're walking around, and people are snapping pictures of us. People want to come up to you and talk to you. It's Hollywood. It's like you're on a cloud. |
I can't say enough about how our offense has been playing. In the middle of the season, we were moving the ball but we weren't scoring. That's all changed, now. |
I don't think we played real well as a defense. We missed a lot of tackles and played over-aggressive. We missed a couple of assignments here and there. We didn't do it consistently enough where it cost us, but we also didn't consistently stop them, either. |
I felt Tennessee was my new home. |
I felt Tennessee was my new home. The Titans have been a very productive organization. In my rookie season, they beat us in the playoffs. |
I felt the push on my back. He had to make the call. It was a great call. |
I have to get paid what the best safeties in the league get paid; that's only fair to myself. |
I hope there's a city there when we get back. I imagine it's under siege. |
I never played before in an NCAA Tournament, but that's the closest thing I can come to that. Crazy. Emotional. |
