I think he feels more pressure the second year to get better, ... We definitely don't want to repeat last year. No one does here.
You make sure you cover all the things we did poorly. Sometimes in a win like that, you have a tendency to say we played great, but you miss a lot of things that we did poorly. Penalties were definitely a problem. We turned the ball over. ... We've been riding a ragged edge. That's not good football. We've got to fix it. We've got to look at it as a great win, but there's things we need to improve upon.
He's good at that, ... But I can tell. I'm around him a lot. I couldn't even explain it. But I can feel it. He definitely wants to produce. It's not like he's getting any younger. The time to do it is now.
Sean can definitely play receiver, ... He has a big wingspan and great hands. We're trying to get him in a few situations where he can maybe make a play for us.
I can definitely say that things did bounce our way at times. We were blessed tonight,
I thought the first part of the year, when he was healthy, I think that is about as good as I've seen anybody run.
I think we realized what was at stake,
I think we've got a ton to play for. Each one of these games is kind of precious to us. We need to get back on the winning track. Everyone can count the numbers. We've got five wins; we've got five games left.
I think we take a long hard look at ourselves, and it certainly starts with me. ... It seemed like we were kind of all of us together on it.
I think any of us, including Coach Parcells, would say that it's players that win games. You have to have great players.
I think as much as anything it's their character. They keep fighting, and it's paid off for us.
I think it was one of the prettiest plays I've ever seen,
I think we all realized what was at stake. We had talked about it all week, the big ballgame for us and for them there was a lot at stake. There was a lot riding on it and we didn't play well. I think we take a long hard look at ourselves, and it certainly starts with me.
Just doing his part, ... He doesn't have to do more than that, you know. Direct it and get us points, but just do his part. I think one thing about Patrick is he's a real good student. I think he's smart. When you put the game plan in he has a feel for what we're doing there, so he only has to do his part. He doesn't have to make something happen by himself.
