diego game grew guess san taking
I was really taking a guess of where he was going to be. It was open, but it wasn't really open. We kind of grew in that sense. The San Diego game epitomized it.
fit mentally smart throw tough tried
That was one I tried to fit in there, ... Sometimes you take shots. You take chances. But if it's not there, throw it away. ... We need to be smart and mentally tough and not do those things.
came felt
It felt great. That's why I came here,
calls confidence everybody felt man though throws
It felt great. I have confidence in myself. I can make the throws and play this game, even though everybody calls me an old man for some reason. I don't know why.
phone
The phone . . . probably the kids. They're always doing that.
drive good points ugly
When you have third-and-10, third-and-15, and third-and-20, you have some difficulties. It was an ugly kind of game. We had a good drive and didn't get any points and then we were kind of stalemated for a while. We had some opportunities and didn't make the plays.
runs stop time
Yeah, that would be nice. That's kind of how it goes, how it should be. The world doesn't stop turning. Eventually, your time runs out.
attack miss shots strike throw wind zone
We still had to attack that and then when they give us that coverage, we have to take our shots and throw it. It's just like pitching. When you throw a fastball, you are going to miss the strike zone every once in a while. You have to wind up and throw it again.
attack behind certain people reads
We want to attack certain people but when you get behind you have to go where the reads take you.
hard work
Work as hard as I can to be the No. 1 and don't look back. I don't have anything to lose. I'm just going to go out and play and have fun.
ball calls continue ended looking spread
He ended up being that today, but not really when we put it in. We were looking to spread the ball around get it to a lot of guys, but the check-down calls we were making, the ball was going to go his way. He was making plays, so we had to continue doing that.
notice
I didn't notice Keith Traylor that much in Denver.
game guys pushing season step
I don't feel that way at all. I just know I've got to keep working and we all have to keep pushing as quarterbacks because there was one season in 12 years where I've started every game and made it through the whole season. More times than not, there are going to be other guys that are going to have to step in and play.
addition bit brown continue good helped hope hurt obviously player positive ricky ronnie took true win
I don't know that it's true and I hope it isn't, but it obviously would hurt us because he was a positive addition for us on offense. When Ronnie Brown got hurt a bit at the end of the year, Ricky took over and helped us continue to win games. He's a good player for us and big in our success. It would hurt not to have him.
