They surprised us with an unbalanced line and a quick snap. It took us a drive to figure it out. |
They were a little more prepared for what we were doing after halftime. They made some good adjustments. |
They were playing the best they could play and we were still in there, we were only 10 down, ... We knew they were going to start missing and once they did we just kept going, we just kept working as a team offensively and defensively. The game is 40 minutes not 10. |
They're running a new offense. I call it the Utah shotgun option. They'll throw about 40 passes and they have good receivers. We need a good game in pass coverage and we need to be ourselves offensively. |
This doesn't happen every night. Everybody just got comfortable. Once you start hitting a couple, everybody gets that confidence, and our confidence was really hot. |
This was a big game. This was the one we wanted to have out of all of them. |
This was a very positive first game for us, |
We are a symbol of America, a proud symbol of America, ... We were born here and have been transplanted all around the world with a bit of different local flavor and flair, and when people are looking for symbols of America, companies like ours do pop up from time to time. But we take this very seriously. |
We can go out there with nothing to lose because nobody really gave us a chance to even win a game in this series, and nobody has given us a chance to win this next game in Detroit. If we can get a win and bring it back here, anything can happen. |
We can still get that fifth spot. This is a game that can turn around our whole season. |
We captured the momentum when we answered their seven points with 20 of our own in the first half, |
We defeated a very good team, |
We didn't know how physical he'd become, because we don't beat up our kids in practice, ... He had to play himself into showing us, and one game in midseason he came up and made a great tackle along the edge. From that point on, I think that answered our questions. |

We don't come out and play the entire game with intensity and with energy. And now it's coming back to hurt us. Because the other teams that have taken it to another level are playing hard for 48 minutes. And when you don't play hard for 48 minutes, it's starting to show now. |
