I don't think it will be a problem. I've gotten to know Jerry. I know what he is about, how he runs routes, I know what he does a lot of times. So even though we haven't had a lot of reps this preseason, I don't think it will be a big deal. |
I don't think my mind-set was any different tonight than for any other game. I really tried to finish this on a positive note. Obviously, playing against the Giants was a pretty big deal for me. |
I feel like we're growing as a team. I feel like we've got guys who didn't panic, who didn't go into crisis mode. We just knew we had to clear a few things up and we'd get a victory this weekend, and we did it. |
I find that very funny because when I throw to him too much, like I did in the New England game, it's 'Oh, you're throwing to Randy too much,' ... And then when I don't throw to him enough: 'Well, you're not throwing to Randy enough.' ... In my mind, I can't win that battle, so I'm not going to worry about it. |
I know I'm not going to go the whole year without one but at the same time it just comes down to being smart with the ball, ... I think I'm doing that better than I did last year and I think that's why I've thrown less interceptions. |
I look back at a couple of games we lost that we shouldn't have lost that could have made a difference. But this is the reality. There have been a myriad of things that have led to our record. I take my share of the blame. We've had a lot of penalties and inconsistent execution on offense that has led to this record. |
I saw you on TV today saying Kerry Collins has no chance of being a starting QB option no matter where he lands this year. I wonder why you say that when Collins is a much better QB than the current starters in Arizona, Baltimore, Dallas, Miami and San Francisco. |
I still want to stay aggressive. I want to try to get everything I can, but at the same time, if the situation warrants that I throw it in there, I'm fine. But if not, I want to be safe with the ball. |
I take pride in the way I play, ... This organization has treated me well. I still have a lot of fight. Every time I go out there I am going to give it my best. |
I think it's key for us to get this win, certainly going into the bye week, and having time to reflect and think about the last four weeks. To get this victory is going to make the off week a lot better, for sure. |
I think the fact we went up there and played well last year definitely should help our confidence going into the game. We know what they're playing for. |
I think you look at every game and there have been different reasons for it. Penalties, I think, have hurt us. Certainly I take responsibility for things I could have done better and it's been frustrating. But we've got two more chances to prove we can be the kind of offense we thought we would be. |
I was an Eagles fan growing up, growing up so close to them, watching Jaworski (quarterback Ron) and (receiver) Harold Carmichael and (running back) Wilbert Montgomery, and those guys. So, there's obviously a tie there for me. Of course, when I was in New York I was able to play them every year down there, and I still have a lot of family and friends back there. |
I was definitely looking for the first down first, ... I knew the situation and felt anything that was close to getting a first down was covered. They had some people on Randy, two or three guys on him every play. J.P. was on the safety, so I took a shot at it. |
I'll throw to him if he's covered, |
