I said, 'Look, Thomas, the great thing about football is there's always next Sunday. Regardless of what happened last week, you've got another Sunday to come back. If you dominate that game, guess what? They won't be talking about that previous week. |
I think he got so used to coming out late because he hasn't been practicing with us, |
I think that was my rookie year. We won by a field goal. Yeah, I remember that game a lot. |
I think the lesson we can take from two years ago is that we come in confident that we can get it done because we've already been there before. A lot of these guys were on that team. We've won on the road before in places everybody said we couldn't win. |
I think we've got to shoot a little better than this and that's what we're going to do, ... We're going to work this week to get better, I think you're going to have to shoot better than 294 next week. |
I think you always need that in a championship team -- a guy that nobody expected to step up to step up. |
I told him after the game he's going to be a good quarterback. Why? Because he doesn't let bad things get him down. He came back and put two drives together with his legs and his arms. That shows me a lot about his character. |
I told him to let it go. He's a fiery guy and I just wanted to let him know we're in his corner no matter what happens. |
I'd try to get a hit man out to get Steve Smith, make him not show up. That's the only way you're going to stop him ... because we move him around to so many different places. ... It's so difficult to contain him. |
I'll tell you what. If you have to do anything to get yourself motivated for these guys [the Patriots], you don't need to be playing football. |
I've been on the other side of that. I understand what them guys are going through when you don't have anything to play for. |
I've never seen anything like that, |
I've never seen anything like that. For anybody to go in and get turnover after turnover and then cap it off with a touchdown, that's unbelievable. |
If I didn't catch him from behind, we wouldn't have had an opportunity to win, ... That definitely ranks up there for me with the big plays I've made. |
If you ain't got it by now, you ain't getting it. You can afford at this point in time to miss a couple of practices. He's played enough. He isn't going to get rusty just from a few days off. |
