I was glad I could help. Just lift their spirits a little bit. ... It was tough just to see your hometown, to see areas that you remember playing baseball in and growing up around and seeing it under water -- just seeing people walking the streets. |
I was just a little off key with the receivers, ... The receivers were doing things I wasn't expecting them to do, or we were doing one little thing wrong. We've got to be on the exact same page on every play. |
I was looking forward to playing in the Superdome, though. Hopefully I'll be able to play there in the future. |
I wasn't sore. That's good news. |
I wasn't thinking about where I was going to live. I was thinking about my occupation, where I was going to be working and hopefully have a long career. And I didn't think San Diego was the place for me to go. |
I wasn't trying to manipulate the system, ... I felt strongly about not going to the Chargers, so I tried to make it work where that did not happen. I knew I'd get criticized and harassed. I knew it wouldn't be easy and I was willing to take that because I felt strongly about it. |
I would have liked to have been a bit more consistent out there today, ... We did hang in and made plays when we had to. |
I wouldn't say it's a good sign that we could win when I didn't play that well [10 of 23, 172 yards], ... But I'll take a victory anytime, regardless of how I play. |
I'll always remember the way he always acted as a professional, the way he dealt with the media and the game plan each week. |
I'll take the win any day of the week. But that performance is not OK by me. |
I'm disappointed. We had too many opportunities we threw away. |
I'm happy where I am, ... I made the right decision. I know I did. |
I'm just going to try to go out there and play well. Obviously my concerns are about this game against Carolina. I don't have to do anything that's not there and is not going to be open. You have to hit the guys and play smart football. |
I'm looking forward to getting some reps and going out there and competing. |
I'm not a screamer or yeller. If I would try to scream and yell at people, it's not what I'd naturally do. So if I tried to do that, it would be awkward, I think. |
