I think any of us, including Coach Parcells, would say that it's players that win games. You have to have great players.
We have great chemistry, great character. Our goals would be to keep everybody -- the coaching staff, the players -- together and hopefully improve next year. We all feel like we've got something going here.
We fought hard all day and kept slugging. I was proud of our guys because they've got great heart. They found a way to win the ballgame.

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.
For us it was just hard-fought, ... We fought hard all day and kept slugging. That's about all you can say from our side. I was proud of our guys, because they had great heart like that.
We think he has great flexibility for us.
He has fantastic long-ball, and ball reactions, ... Very few people can snatch a ball right out of the air like that quick. And then the other thing, he's got a great burst, and when you get him going downfield and put in the ball reaction, he can be running, I think, and doesn't even put his hands up until the last second because he has such confidence there in where the ball is. Even though he's a shorter receiver, I think he's very much a downfield threat because of that, and then, of course, he's got great speed.
I feel good. Health-wise, I'm probably in better shape than I was a bunch of years before. Being a diabetic, I watch everything I eat. I feel great physically.
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.
The thing about Ray is, he's not going to panic. He's been around forever. He was able to play tackle for us last year and now he's come in to play guard. He's a pretty unusual person. He's been given a great body, but with Ray, it's also about character.
Santana has fantastic ball reaction, ... Very few people can snatch a ball right out of the air like that. And he has great burst. He can be running and he doesn't even put his hands up because he has such confidence. He's very much a downfield threat.
Ethan's been around so long, it's a great credit to him. He might be as good a long-snapper as we've ever had. I put a lot of stock in snapping, and we pay him a lot of money to snap the ball.
