backup edge great guy hard miss remains replace seen
Obviously, Edge is a great player. We'd miss him, but we understand. It's hard to replace a guy like that. If it happens, it remains to be seen if his backup (Dominic Rhodes) can do the job.
definitely great hopefully knowing line offensive
That's definitely a great stat, knowing their offensive line and their quarterback. Hopefully we can keep (the streak) going.
across certain fast ongoing puzzle send trying
It's an ongoing puzzle that we're trying to solve. We need to send certain messages, like we're all fast but just don't come across the middle.
guy tougher
It's not about who the tougher guy is.
carry defense front load pass rush thinking
This defense is really predicated on getting a pass rush from the front four. When we go into the week, we're not thinking we have to carry the load. We carry the load every week.
continue excited games picking regular third
We're picking it up, but it's only the third game. We have 13 more games in the regular season. We have to continue this. Let's not get too excited too early.
consistent reason talk
There is no reason we can't be elite. But let's not talk too soon. We have to have a consistent thing going on before we say we're right where we need to be.
explode store
We have to take our energy, store it up and explode on Sunday.
balanced believe ready
We're going to be ready to do some big things. I really believe we'll be a balanced team.
everybody feed gets
We feed off each other. If (one guy) gets a sack, now I have to get one. So it makes everybody play a little harder.
pride play guy
I want to play my best, day in and day out. It's a pride thing for me. I'm going to go out there and dominate the guy I'm playing against every time.
winning games long
As long as we win games and I harass the quarterback, however I do it, we're good.
block eye guy
My favorite part is that 1-on-1 matchup... Block out everything else and stare into that guys eyes.
sports winning nba
Of all the things in sports, getting a sack is one of the hardest things to do. It's like a last-second, game-winning shot in the NBA. A guy hits the last-second shot, and the fans scream. For us (defensive ends), the sack is everything. It's hard to get there. But once you do, there's nothing like it.
