We just got outplayed, ... They made great adjustments and we didn't do very well adjusting ourselves. |
We just got outplayed. They made great adjustments and we didn't do very well adjusting ourselves. |
We needed a victory bad, ... We needed to get back to even so we could feel good about ourselves and the direction we were going. It just happened to be the Super Bowl champs and their 21-game home winning streak on the line. |
We needed that drive because you can't give the ball back to (Patriots quarterback Tom) Brady. You have to keep it away from him because he is able to make so many things happen. That drive of eight minutes was huge for us. |
We saw that they were stacking the box to stop the fullback, ... We saw that no one was going out on me when we run the sweep. We decided to pitch it out there and it was wide open. |
We were 1-2 and we needed this victory badly. So for us it was the Super Bowl Champions, but at the same time it was just the next game on our schedule. |
We're motivated just on the schedule we have: having a tough schedule and wanting to prove to people that no matter if we have a tough schedule or not, we're a good football team, and we're going to win games. I share the record with Lenny now, and I'm not a greedy person. If we can win the game and I don't get a touchdown, I'll be fine with that. |
What better way to recover from injury than a game against the Chiefs. They don't tackle. They won't hit me. In fact, I think my ribs will feel better after the game. |
What else could I do? ... I passed everybody [on the draft board] except for Deuce [McAllister], and we were neck-and-neck. |
When he first got here, he said he had some nastiness to him, and that was one thing he was going to bring. He's definitely brought it. ... I mean, the guy has brought a different mindset to the defense. |
When you get down by the goal line, ... you've got to have a different mind-set. ... 'No matter what, I won't let them stop me.' |
With David here, we think we can be a new version of the Triplets. I'm glad to have him. |
You just kind of set your mind that no matter what, 'I won't let them stop me,' |
You never know – even if you don't start off strong, ... Big games – like 200 yards – are the ones that put you over the top. |
