[The splints] take the pressure off my thumb, and it doesn't hurt, ... But I just have to get the confidence to throw it in there. |
Answering all the questions about it. |
Finally, one of the balls bounced our way. Not only was it a great victory in terms of wins and losses, but it was a great emotional victory. We played hard the whole game and it really paid off in the end. And I think throughout the season, it's something to look back on and say, 'Hey we did this before.' I really think it'll set us up with some good momentum. |
Having the casts helped me focus. I had to be perfect with my technique or I was in trouble. |
He was excited first to be in there. We had four plays there where things weren't going real well, and he just said, 'Let's calm down, I need to calm down myself, and let's go out and play.' From that point on it was just like having Mark in there. |
He's obviously very disappointed in a lot of things. But I think he's going to work on the things that coach wants him to work on. And when he gets his chance again, I think he'll be ready. |
I can't count how many alter egos I've met. The only one I care about is the one that shows up on Sundays. That's the one we've had for 16 weeks. That's the guy we're hoping shows up for four more. |
I don't care whether you're a Hall of Fame coach or a guy who got his first NFL job, winning that first year is tough. It just took time. |
I don't necessarily look at the 2-point conversion. I look at the opportunity that we gave them to have the 2-point conversion. If we get a first down when we have the ball, we're able to take a knee later in the game and end it on our terms. As an offensive line, we didn't provide that opportunity. That's what sticks with me. |
I don't think that's something that Patrick has said at all or entertained. |
I don't think that's something that you ever get past or get over, and I don't think it's something you should get past or get over. It's something you learn to deal with, but I think it's driven him to work on some things that he feels he needs to work on. And also make a push for staying that No. 2 and making a push for No. 1, whether it's at the end of this year or next year or whether it's somewhere else. |
I feel like we're starting to get some breaks, ... Sometimes the ball bounces a certain way, but we need to create our own breaks, and Doc is great example of that. He was hustling downfield. Had he not been, that would have been Philly's ball and it would have been a whole different game. |

I haven't heard any rated-PG-13 ones. I really would rather not get into it. |
I just missed being out there, let alone having a star back like that who can do special things. You want to be a part of a situation like that. |
