box checks confuse count teams whether
It's a big difference. A lot of times teams don't know whether he's in the box or out of the box. A lot of times quarterbacks make their checks off of whether the safety's in the box or not. If you don't know where he's at, or how to count him, it's going to confuse the offense.
move opportunity
If we do have an opportunity to go into the playoffs, we're going to move that way.
experience guys knows talking week
He has a lot of experience with this. Guys have been talking to him all week about this. Mr. Rooney knows all about this.
describe good seen throw
You know he's going to throw something out there they've never seen before. You can't describe how good he is. He's seen everything and done everything.
brought looked looks rattle threw
We wanted to rattle him. He's looked good, but he's a rookie. So we threw a lot of different looks at him and brought a lot of pressure.
amazing challenge focused game gets harder knew together week
We've really come together and done some amazing things. We knew there couldn't be any more mistakes. We had to get focused and take each challenge one at a time. Each week it gets better, and this game will be even harder and we'll have to play much better. This is the big show now.
attention critical guy pay player
When you pay attention to one player so much, a guy who's so critical to your defense, it allows you to do things with other players.
dynamic player teams
Troy has to be accounted for on every play. He's such a dynamic player and can do so many things that teams really have to know where he is at all times and know what he's doing.
attention details few pay plays
We didn't pay attention to the details like we should have. They got a few plays on us and got our attention. After they made a few plays, we kind of buckled down.
bit disguise easy key
We don't want to show everything right when we get up (to the line). We want to disguise a little bit and not let Peyton have an easy read. That's going to be the key to the whole game, how well we disguise.
bad bind chance everybody good knows ourselves playing situation talking trying work
We were disappointed because we had kind of put ourselves in a bad situation, but we still had opportunities to go back out there and keep playing and we still had a chance, and as long as we have a chance we are still going to play hard. Everybody knows what is on the line. We did not have to do a whole lot of talking about it. Everybody knows the situation and that we put ourselves in a pretty good bind and we are trying to work our way out of it.
guess guy hair
You'd never guess he was that guy on the field, hair flying.
ball create hard knew moving offense time took
We didn't create enough ball opportunities for our defense. We took that attitude. We knew our offense was having a hard time moving the ball. But we didn't do that.
watching weight
Yeah, he's watching his weight all right. Watching it expand.
