Dan was hitting his spots today. He was able to throw on the inside corner on a consistent basis. |
He gets so fired up it makes you laugh. He can be such a passionate guy when it comes to football. |
He just has the natural ability to get to the ball. Luckily, I get to go against Peppers all the time, and I think he's a good player too. It's going to be a hard day, but that's what happens in the playoffs. |
He was always singing, |
He was in good shape. He was always able to run and do what he needed to do. I don't think that was as much of an issue. I'm interested to see what happened. I think it must have been genetic. |
He's just a country boy. There's nothing glamorous about him. He's got a lot of [moxie], but not a lot of polish to him. |
Hopefully, everyone will remember this game and not the first one. |
I just bring leadership and try to control the game. I want to get the best out of everybody. |
I played with him a year at Utah; he was a right tackle and I was a left tackle my senior year. I knew him real well; he's a real good guy. It was sad to hear about it. Obviously no one expected it. When it happens to a real good person, it makes you pretty upset. |
I remember my first year and in some of the loud games, I was really late off the ball. It's just something you've got to work on. You can't really simulate except being in the games. They try to do crowd noise at practice, but it's just not the same. |
I sat there and kind of watched it over and over to see if they had any information, |
I think this was the first time we beat Memorial in like four or seven years. |
I've been watching Steve since I was a freshman in college. He's been making great plays as long as I've known him. He seems to get better every game. You know he's drawing more and more attention, but he still finds a way to do what he does. |
It seemed like every time we got a penalty, it was on a big gain, |
It seemed like every time we got a penalty, it was on a big gain. That makes it more frustrating. We get down to first-and-10 at the 11, and end up first-and-20. There are just things like that that will kill you. ... Those penalties are hard to overcome. |
