areas fix games week worse
We were better in some areas this week and worse in some areas. We still have two more games to get sharp. There's still a lot of areas we need to fix up.

We're going to lose a lot if we don't have him,

You can always get better.
believe athlete differences
I personally believe that professional athletes should give back to their communities in any way possible. We are in a position to make a difference.
athlete thinking people
So many people get caught up in being a pro athlete and think they are better. I don't feel like I've ever changed or acted any differently because of the situation I'm in or that status I have.

Every kid thinks about the Heisman Trophy and dreams about it, but you never think it could happen to you.

I don’t have to play football for money.

It feels good to give your fans something to feel good about.

It was just a weird, eerie feeling in the stadium. It was something I've never felt before.
arrived guys locker room seems top
It seems like we're on top of the world right now. But I don't think guys in this locker room really feel like that. I think they feel we haven't arrived yet.

chad explosive highlight inside kevin knows position solid steals third
He's just solid, and he's always been solid for us. Chad steals a lot of the highlight shows, but Kevin is in there making big blocks, making big catches on third down. We've got a lot of explosive guys, and then there's Kevin who just knows the playbook inside and out. He can play every position and he's strong.
dagger fun heart
That was kind of a dagger in the heart for them, ... That was a fun drive.
broke guys hand heat hurt jealous last lucky people position rather run sideline standing wish
I take a lot of heat because guys say, 'You're lucky you don't have to run today,' but when you're in the position I'm in and you're hurt that's when you want to be running. I wish I could be out there running. It's like that for everyone in the season. When (tight end) Reggie (Kelly) broke his hand last year, he was standing on the sideline and some people were jealous of him, but there's nothing more he'd rather been doing than practicing.
