[Dockery uses his body to compensate for deficiencies in technique.] If you get around him, ... you can get around anybody. He's a wide dude. |
Bad luck, that's what it seems like to me, man. We play hard and work on it and get them in practice all the time; it's just not happening in the games. |
But that's how it is in this league. You can't leave it up to the officials to make those kinds of calls because they're human, too. They're going to make mistakes. The official thought he got in, so he got in. We've just got to make up for it when we go back. |
He knows me. I'm his teacher. I taught him everything he knows. |
He may have been in the best shape possible. Who knows what happened? It's a sad story: A guy who goes out and plays hard during the game. . . . |
He's one of the nicest coaches I've played for. He's a man that will go to battle and protect your back. He's one of those guys who always wants to know what the players think and wants to make sure we're OK. ... You don't hardly ever get a coach who wants to know how the players feel. Half of them don't care. They just want to win. |
I don't know why [Gibbs] changed, |
I feel pretty good. I've still got a few more days, but I don't feel any pain. With a tape job, I should be okay. I don't want to miss this game. |
I live for games like this. You dream about playing in games like this, win-or-die-type games. Coach will have us ready. We just have to go do it. |
I love hearing all the know-it-alls say that we couldn't do it. Some of those guys might need to be fired. |
I needed one more. I wished I could get one more. This was just a big day, the biggest of my career. It was a matter of going out and playing without fear. My teammates, being where they needed to be, stepped up a whole lot, too. This was just a big game. We needed it. |
I thought we were right back in it after we got the kickoff back. But we had a lot of chances in this game that we let slip. |
I'm not really worried about this because I know we'll respond next game and step up. We knew they were going to make some plays, but the little things we did to hurt ourselves, we've got to eliminate those and we'll be fine. |
It keeps the defense intact and going in the right direction and with him and hopefully the other coaches staying, we'll keep this thing going. It's a late Christmas present for all of us. |
It was loud, man. It was the loudest I've heard, and I played here. This crowd, they were loud. It felt like a lot bigger crowd than what it was. They did what they needed to do to help their team and help them win. |
