again concerned grateful happy however opportunity playing sunday whatever
Playing on Sunday will be an accomplishment because it has been such a long road, ... However much I play, however they use me, whatever I do, I'm just going to be happy that I'm out there. I'm not concerned about starting. I just want to be a part of it. I'm grateful to even have an opportunity again to get out there with those guys.
again anxiety bit highest
I have a little bit of anxiety. It's all new again. I've got to do it all over again at the highest level. It's going to be interesting.
against amongst beat change close game indeed measures necessary perception plays realize rep since start steps taking team together until win
That's what we've been doing since I've been here. It's always close, but not close enough. Until all of us as a whole come together and realize that we can indeed win and start taking the necessary steps and measures to do that, then that'll be what we are: The team that plays hard, and you're going to have to play your tails off to beat them, but some way, somehow, we'll win the game against them. And I think that's kind of like our rep right now, and we have to do everything we can to change that perception of us. And more importantly, we have to change it amongst ourselves.
constantly fail figure guys hunt realize trying
I think what you guys fail to realize is I do hunt for minds. So I'm constantly trying to figure out who you are, what you're about.
head might mine rolling saw wish
I saw so many 56 jerseys in the stands. I was like, 'Man, I wish there was one on the field.' When I see all those jerseys and mine is one, I might have to put my head up and keep them (the tears) from rolling down. I might get a little emotional. It's been a long road.
attitude outside positive
I think I have a positive attitude because I kind of look at things outside the box,
last starting
I'm starting over. I've never been in this position, so I'm just going to see what happens. I don't know where I'll be, but I do want to play football. This could be my last hurrah.

bring city dead excited focused giant
I think it is a dead issue. I think that I'm so excited about being a Giant now, and being in this city and being able to bring what I'm going to bring to this organization ? that's what I'm focused on.
attention body game good jump liked pay people plays second third
You liked that one? I can't tell you what I saw. I had a good jump on it. It was third and one. People who really pay attention to the way I play see I make a lot of plays in the second half. You see a lot from body movement, from tendencies. Sometimes you see more in the game than you would on film.
fed hold support tired
I was tired at first. I had to hold my nerves. I had so much support from my teammates, and I kind of fed off of that.
stop
We can't give up the big play. That's what we do, and we have to stop that. That's got to be part of our maturation process.

best gets maybe opportunity playing side stuff style
Where all that stuff gets started, I have no idea. Maybe it's because of the style of play where, even if I'm on one side of the field, if I have an opportunity I'm going to try to make the play on the other side. I just know I'm going 100% and playing the best I can.
