game
I take it one play, one game at a time, ... I don't look any further.
felt kicking shy speaking
I'm not going to shy away from speaking my mind, ... I felt like I was kicking (expletive). So, I just said it.
felt happened knew last ran worried
I knew I was going to be able to go, ... I felt good, I ran good. A no-brainer, I was going out there. I wasn't worried about how long I was going to last or anything. I just happened to have to come out when it got worse.
asking care love maybe quit time voted
I always want to go. If you don't go, I don't know, maybe they quit asking you. I love it. Any time I'm voted in, I don't care if it's the 20th in a row, I'm coming; I'll be right here and I'll play like I want to be here.
ball came gave guy looked signal
Right before the play started, we looked at each other, gave a little signal to 'in-and-out' those two guys. My guy came in, his guy went out. We switched. The ball came to me.
difference last special time
I think we have all our people, that's the difference this time around. If we have all of our players, which we didn't in the last two playoffs, we can do special things.
expect
He was all over the place. That's what we expect of him, and he can do it every week.
concerned great help missed players shows sitting team
(The streak) is important and it shows accountability but at the same time, I'm not really concerned with it. There's a lot of great players that have missed a lot of games, so I'm not concerned with that. It's just (that) I want to be out there to help my team win, and I know I can't do anything sitting on the sidelines.
heart shows strange
Nothing strange about this, ... This shows the heart of a champion. This is what we expected.
guarantee looking sure wrong
And you look at what you did wrong because I guarantee you they're going to know everything we did wrong. The opportunities they missed. . . . I'm sure they're looking at that.
coverage guy mug skills speed stay true valuable value
That's not true at all. The value has risen. Think about it. If you can't mug a guy down the field, isn't it more valuable to have the speed and coverage skills to stay with him?
beat capable game nobody
If we play our game and do what we're capable of doing, nobody can beat us.
deal week
It's just another week to me. All I've got to deal with is the harness.
hard playing
They're playing a little different. They're not playing as hard.
