bowl super win
We're going to the Super Bowl to win it, not to just be there.
definitive players
We're going to have a lot of flexibility with some of the things we're doing, and the players have been very receptive. It's more definitive than things we've done in the past. The onus is being put back on the players to execute, and I think they like that.
effect extra football game involved playing speed weather
The extra day won't have any effect on it. We're going to have to weather the flurry that will be involved with the emotions, the speed of the game and playing a high-quality football team.
encouraged integral
He's an integral part of what we do. So, I'm every encouraged by his situation.
continue defense integral overseeing palmer pieces puzzle question rivalry trust
Carson Palmer will be back, I don't think there is any question to that, but there are a lot more pieces to that puzzle and not just Carson. He's an integral part of it, trust me, but they've got a lot of pieces around him and with Marvin overseeing that defense they're going to continue to get better. It's going to a big-time rivalry for years to come.
certainly encouraged integral
I think he'll be fine. Certainly he's an integral part of what we want to do. I'm very encouraged by his situation.

adjustment approach bit both face game goes planning second sides sure time
The first time you face someone, you are not sure how they are going to approach you on both sides of the ball. I think the second time through, you have a better sense of what they are about. So there is a little bit of adjustment that goes into the game planning on both sides of the ball.
prepared ride
I'm prepared to latch on to his coattails and ride him for a long time.
defined journey mean people telling
There's a lot of people telling you that you can't do it but, you know what, that doesn't mean you don't go try. Don't let your journey be defined by history, let your journey make history.
exceeded field gained gives guy guys stands yard
For every yard that he's gained on the field, this guy, in my mind, has exceeded that off the field ? the kind of guy he is, the way he gives back and what he stands for. I've never been around too many guys like that.
throw
You can take away the run, if you want to, but then if you do that, Peyton will throw for 300 or 400 yards.
anymore effort good great heck hopefully individual super trying
He's a heck of an athlete. He really is a very good athlete. He was just trying to make a play, and he made a play. It was a great individual effort on his part. It was a great tackle. It was a super play on his part. Hopefully he won't have to do anymore of that.
feed plan
I don't know how they plan to feed us -- in shifts, maybe.
