chance decided guy lead money playing promised pull somewhere trigger wherever
Wherever I decided to go I had to go somewhere - money or no money - where we have a quarterback that is young and a guy that can lead you to the promised land, ... Playing with Brett, I know what it's like to have a guy who can pull the trigger and always give you a chance to win.

He's healthy and playing a lot faster and more aggressive than he was last year, ... He looks as if he's enjoying the scheme that they're running.
aggressive butler chance far faster good healthy last looks number player playing similar wears
(Roman) is healthy and playing a lot faster and more aggressive than he was last year, ... I've had a chance to see the other young kid, Collins, a little bit. He looks like he's going to be a good player for them. He wears the same number as LeRoy Butler (No. 36) and is kind of similar to LeRoy as far as build.
answer anybody bit case credit ended field finally future games hurt last playing point themselves
I can't answer that. There were times when to his credit he wanted to play and I wouldn't play him because of the injury. And then (it) finally got to the point where we ended up playing him. But we never put anybody on the field with the idea that they could hurt themselves in future games or years and that wasn't the case last year. But to his credit, he was chomping at the bit to play and we ended up playing him.
blitz finally hit playing red training wearing
It will be like playing ones vs. ones in training camp. The only thing is if I get to blitz I finally get to hit him. He won't be wearing that red jersey.
crowd deal definitely hope knows lead league noise playing super
You know one thing, he's definitely had a lot of experience. Playing in a Super Bowl, playing in the league so many years, he knows how to deal with crowd noise and he knows the offense. He knows all the reads. I just hope he can go out there and lead us to a win.
bad bottom chance division games good nfl playing worst
The good thing is you're playing in a bad division. The bad thing is you are in the worst division in the NFL and you're at the bottom of that division. But you still have 11 games to go. There's still a chance to do some good things.

Our goal is to win the division. Each of these games are must-win games, and they are because they are divisional games, and they come back to bite you at the end of the season,
came chance win
I'm shocked. When I came here, I thought we'd have a chance to win a championship, and right now it doesn't look like we have a chance at all.
continue drop feeling game grinding teams though week
Just not panicking, just feeling as though you can continue to play each game week by week and really keep grinding it out. You never know, because the season's so long. Teams are going to drop games, so you never really know how you're going to be in position.
bowl brought coming either error fix game judgment knowing player plays super team weighed worry
When it comes to a game as big as a Super Bowl and plays can go either way, you never want to have that happen. But that's something that you have to live with, as a player or a coach, knowing that it is going to be weighed on a person's judgment. That's why they brought in replay, to try to take away some of the error in judgment by the referees. But you can't go back and fix everything. You really want to make more plays than the other team so you don't have to worry about the referees coming into play.
guys seven twice
Some of them have things they have to do, but about seven guys will be going with me. I should have thought twice about that, but that's all right.
