denver expected pittsburgh surprised tough
Pittsburgh? Nah, I'm not surprised. Pittsburgh is a tough team, just like us. I'm not surprised by that. And Denver -- they're 13-3. And Seattle? Nah, no surprise. And yeah, we expected to be here.
chicago defense great performance
That was a great performance by our offense. Who would have thought the vaunted Chicago defense would give up 29 points?
against basically brings city coaches guys less media players road travel york
I think when we go on the road, it's just us against the whole city. You go to a city like New York and Chicago, where we only travel with 46 players and the coaches and the media guys through the organization, less than 100 people. It's us against the whole people, basically ... so I think we see the challenge. I think it brings us tighter when we're on the road because we know we're all we have in that city at that time.
might packers beats
If you can't beat them (Packers), You might as well join them
satisfied
Personally, I think I'm doing well. I'm still working on things to get better. I'm not where I want to be. I'll never get where I want to be. But I'm satisfied with where I am so far.
goes good jordan played ready
Jordan (Carstens) has played and Kindal (Moorehead) has played, so we feel good about those guys. You have to go to be ready when someone goes down.
clue goes people talking
I think it's funny, because it just goes to show how much people think they really know but they really don't have a clue what they're talking about,
calmed drive everybody fast start
But the important thing was to start fast in this game. We scored on that first drive and set the tone. That calmed everybody down and we were able to play our style.
carrying
He has us on his back, and he's carrying us.
call few guess instant knee knew looked personal referee replay rule saw
I thought it was a fumble, but that's just my personal opinion. The call from the referee was his knee was down. So I guess that was the right call. They got instant replay and looked at it a few times, so evidently they saw something that I didn't see or they knew a rule that I don't know. I thought it was a fumble, but again, that's just my personal opinion.
indicator
It's an indicator of what's happening, but (the numbers) really don't tell the whole story,
carrying high improve matter mind nobody seen stop
I've seen him improve over the years, but I've never seen him play at this high of a level. He has us on his back, and he's carrying us. Right now, he has it in his mind that nobody is going to stop him, no matter what.
against
When we go on the road, it's just us against the whole city.
early easy lead offense playing
When this offense is playing lights-out like that, it makes everything easy for us. Give us an early lead and look out.
