certain feels game given hit took
It's nothing that's going to get me out of my game. My game is a certain way all the time. It's not going to make me try to hit you any harder, because I'm going to do that anyway. I took it as him being who he is, and he feels like he can make a play at any given time.

You saw what happened this year. It can happen. It starts to filter through. Different opinions are given out, and things happen that shouldn't happen.
defensive definitely excited game given guys happen hooking knowing love player receiver type waiting
That's something special, to have the type of quarterback that Donovan is and to have the type or receiver that Terrell is. For those guys to keep hooking up game after game, and to go into every game knowing that is potentially a touchdown waiting to happen at any given point, as a defensive player you love that. I'm definitely excited for those guys and the way they've been able to click.

He's a guy that has every move you need as a running back. He can stop you in your tracks. He can stop and go on a dime. He can spin on you. He can catch the ball. He can run over you. He can bull you for 3 yards and get into the end zone. Then he has the jets to get past you. He has everything you need to be a great back, and that's why he is one.

I mean, he can get up out of a defensive end's stance quick and get pressure off the wing and that's what we expect out of him, ... I'm telling you, he's very explosive off the ball.

Home needs to be a place that teams fear coming into.

I think that's a tribute to Andy and the veterans. We know what it takes to get back. It takes hard work. It takes dedication to what we're doing.

It's simple, ... I'm always striving to do more. Whatever I accomplish, it's not enough. I don't get satisfied. That's not my nature.
