He's going through his rehab, and all of those things have been good. Now, it's just a matter of time when we get him out there and start banging him around. |
He's got a lot of passion, |
He's got competitive greatness. That's what separates guys. That's what drives him, I think that's the key to him. I think he's just a very, very strong-willed competitor. |
He's got that mind-set pretty good in big spots. We needed him to be big today, and he was. |
He's had this before (with the Atlanta Falcons), and we just want to get to the bottom of it. |
He's no stranger to us and he's no stranger to our opponents. He's a guy who played a lot for us a year ago. He's a guy who has respect and confidence from his team, his teammates and me. He's a guy we feel comfortable with. |
He's obviously down. He worked very hard to get himself and ourselves to this position, and I think like most guys he's disappointed. He's a strong kid and he seems to be in a little better spirits today. |
He's played very well for us in these first two games, and we look for him to continue to do that. |
Hopefully by now these guys understand you're never as good as they say you are and you're never as bad as they say you are. We get an opportunity to define that every week. I think I'd rather be on the cover at the end of the season rather than at the beginning. |
Hopefully, we won't draw too much from it, because that was a 24-14 loss, ... Hopefully, it's something that we've learned from. Last year was our first opportunity in quite some time. Hopefully, we'll learn from that and understand what's at stake there. The whole world is watching. There's no question all of your peers are watching. It's something that guys should gear up for, and I think we'll learn from that experience last year. |
I believe it sends a clear message to these sexual predators that if they target children, we will target them. |
I believe it will end up requiring surgery. It's an injury that we feel better about with surgery. It's a break that they'll get fixed up after Seattle. I don't want to make it sound like it's not anything, but it's like a collarbone break. You get the bone back together and it heals and you move on. It's not a joint injury. |
I can tell you that this team worked very hard this season. I told them not to hang their heads when they walked out of that locker room. They should be proud of themselves. |
I can't even think at all it's any louder than what we've been practicing in. It's awful sounding and it's loud and I'm told it's a jet engine. |
I can't think of a more satisfying win to get us into the playoffs. We have a lot of high character guys in our locker room who stepped up today to win a game we had to win. |
