A combination of many things. This group plays together. We learned from past errors. |
All of this is a combination of having a good pass rush, having good coverage and playing together. |
But they really haven't really been challenged. |
Everybody's got to rally. We've got to step up -- including me. We've all got to step in and we've got to go, wake up and get it on. |
He?s a brilliant teacher and a great communicator. And he?s knowledgeable. He?s got the experience and knows how to teach each player, I think. That?s an art form. |
He's made some huge plays. The play he made against New England was a huge play, it was the play of the year. . . . The thing about the guy is, he never gets down, never too high, never too low, just keep on playing. That's what makes him special. |
He's playing very intently and fiercely. That, to me, is the sign of a maturing guy. If you don't prepare, it shows in a game. To me, if you prepare, if you invest time, you get a pretty good feel for what you might get. And he's doing a great job pre-snap, he knows what could happen before it does. |
I don't have a magic answer. If you play cornerback in this league, they're going to get you once in a while. |
I don't know if people really appreciate what Sam did. He was the fifth DB in what we call 'The Big Nickel.' He actually played corner, so he was really versatile, and that was really a help to us. |
I don't know. I'm glad they are. . . . But I really can't answer that. |
I know this about [head coach] Mike Shanahan. There will be a move. |
I know turnovers have been a big part of what we've done. You've got to have them, you've just got to have them. |
I think some of that's overblown. They're going to run their offense and we're going to play our defense. Sometimes, early, they might target a guy. |
In the pass-rush stuff, Corey Jackson jumped out. |
It came down to coordination. We knew they were going to throw one-step passes. . . . The deal was, we didn't want them to run the ball. And what they did was let 3-yard gains turn into 12-yard passes. We can't do that. |
