belts best defense guys last played trying year
It really does. All the new guys that have played last year have a year under their belts and I think we are trying to take this thing to another level. We are trying to be one of the best, if not the best defense to play for this organization.
attention attributes brings featured guy last pay physical plays porter randy saw though top year
Last year you saw Porter do his thing a little bit. He was the featured guy and he made some big plays for them . . . Though you have to pay attention to Randy because of all the physical attributes he brings to the game, you still have to pay attention to Porter, because the guy can still go up top on you. He is a big guy (6-2, 220) that can run.
close deal facts game last nowhere season
All you can do is deal with what the facts are right now. The facts are that this is the last game of the season. The facts are that there were a lot of injuries. The facts are that this is nowhere close to the season that we wanted to have.
advantage against came last none special took tried work
That's just one of those things that happen. They came out different (against the Giants) than they did last week. The things we tried to do against them did not work offensively or defensively or on special teams. None of us were able to get anything going, and they took advantage of it.

chasing gun next number throw time tired understand
He has a gun for an arm, but the things he can do with his legs. For one thing, he can fly. Number two, chasing him down is going to get you tired for the next play. So, you kind of would say you want him to throw the ball, but at the same time you understand that he has a gun for an arm.

He has a gun for an arm, but the things he can do with his legs, man.
bumps confidence game guys helps legs next physical short takes week
I don't know if a short week ever helps you when you play a physical sport like football. But I have the confidence the guys will do what it takes to get their legs back, to get the bumps out, and will come out this next game swinging. That's all you can do come back and come out swinging.
best
I would say, the way I've started, that this is the best I've played,
bull catch great guy jets move past running spin stop yards
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.
kinda throw wanting
Really, I was kinda wanting for them to throw to him more.
defensive expect explosive pressure quick stance telling wing
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.
coming fear home needs teams
Home needs to be a place that teams fear coming into.
andy dedication hard takes tribute
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.
