You don't have to maul people on every snap to be a great offensive line, ... but you do have to mesh together. You do have to be smart, know who you have to get to and how to get to them. Last week I think we made strides in that area. The group that we've got in there now mesh well together, they're smart, they know what to do.
I thought Eli looked poised. It was one of those games where, fortunately for him, he wasn?t called upon to do a whole lot. They had a lot of big runs and he had a couple of screens that were probably his biggest plays. I think the game played out the way they wanted it to. They took the pressure off him, which allowed him to continue to grow and get better.
I think you see so often around this league that the guys don't get along, they don't like each other, they make it one guy against the other guy. You don't have that same type of atmosphere (in Arizona). That's what makes it easier.
I think you gain something with your teammates when you do, when they see you battling through stuff. I don't know if they look down on you when you don't, but I know there's an increased respect when you do.
I want to win some Super Bowls, and so that's really my focus, to do whatever I have to do to lead this team to a championship,
It's not 100 percent pain-free yet, but as far as the strength and the movement and being able to do things, I feel really good.
That's what every quarterback wants, ... Just go out and play and not have to look over your shoulder.
We had it set up. We just didn't make it happen. We have to be more consistent.
