I just see a guy that's a football player, that has outstanding ability, who's trying to be as good a player as he possibly can, ... We're trying to get him to a point where he understands what we want. You want that kind of person, someone who cares so much, when they do make an error they feel accountable to the whole team. |
I just wonder what's going to happen come free agency, ... Are free agents really going to want to come here? They hear some of the stories. |
I know we can be better, but it's a great format to improve upon, |
I liked Matt's competitive spirit and his love of the game and I liked the way he directed traffic. I like the way he played the game. I liked his intensity and, of course, the way he threw the ball. He had mobility and all those things. |
I look forward to working with these players and re-establishing the New York Giants' tradition of physically controlling the line of scrimmage, |

I never had any doubt about it. |
I never want them too comfortable, ... That's not what this is about. |
I notice a difference in the chemistry of this group as a football team. Everyone likes to win. Everyone is in a good position when they do win, but this group seems to have a good focus and I know they look forward to the challenges in the remaining 12 games. |
I only have one experience historically with that happening after the bye week. We are hopeful that we are a more mature football team. |
I really felt that they were zoomed in on the task at hand, ... It was very good, and it was very serious. Everyone seemed to be focused. ... We knew this would be one of those NFC East divisional games with the Redskins coming in here and playing as well as they can. We expected it to be a four-quarter game like all of these games have been. |

I spoke to the team about that the other day, ... We've tried to take the high road on that and hopefully we're going to continue to do that. |
I think getting them in the right spots is not the issue. It's at the right time, whether it be a second-and-long or a third-down situation or short yardage or goal line or whatever. But we like it that way. That is what these guys are here for. They can run, they are versatile, they play multiple positions, they're going to give us the intelligence factor which, I think, will accelerate their learning as well. |
I think he'll deal with it the same way he's dealt with everything that has come his way at a young age, and he'll deal with it with class and he'll have poise about it. We're certainly not going to make an issue about it here. We can read and we listen to the comments and what the speculation is, but I'm sure that he'll handle it in stride just as he's dealt with the fact his home happens to be in New Orleans, too. |
