I thought Mark looked real good on Friday. But hopefully he'll be able to take more work this week. We'll need to start this game off absolutely sharp, playing against Tampa. They have one of the best defenses in the league.
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'll let Patrick go this weekend. I felt we needed to give Patrick a shot. Hopefully he'll play great for us and we're all going to support him. We're going to give him all the work in practice. He's got a tough assignment this weekend in trying to lead us against Philly.
From Mark's standpoint, when he was playing last year we weren't as good certainly as we are now, ... I think we're better now. And hopefully that will prove out to be the case.
He's been seasoned, ... Hopefully we've got a young guy who's on the come.
There are some real critical decisions we're going to make in that group. So we played them a lot. And hopefully the film will tell us what we need to know so we make good decisions.
My commitment to the players was to try to keep this whole group together and hopefully improve and step up again next year.
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,
