Well, Troy's a politician. He's a veteran guy that can make plays and is a natural fit for that position.
I won a Super Bowl with Tebucky Jones,
You know he has it in him, but you don't know what you're going to get (from a guy making his first NFL start),
We definitely got served a little piece of humble pie. We weren't able to match their intensity. . . . For whatever reason we got beat in every phase of the game.
If we need some dirty work to be done, I'll do the dirty work, ... We're going to keep him pretty so he can be back there making the plays.
We lost one of our leaders. To fill that void is hard.
For me, personally, I'm out there with one arm already, ... Now I lose somebody I depend on. But this is the NFL, and we expect the person that's behind him to be ready.
He is the MVP of our team, ... He's what made our team go. He's the stature of what the Patriots are all about. As long as we have him back there, we have a chance to score points. Without Troy, we would not be here.
You have to get fed up and that's what we did.
We don't worry about where we finished off last year as a defence because we didn't make the playoffs.
I've lined up next to many safeties. I've lined up next to at least 10 different safeties in my career. It's something that's not coachable. It's just two guys that just kind of get it.
Defense wins championships. Our offense does and outstanding job keeping us off the field early. Down towards the end we had to keep battling even when they were moving the ball. But we remained focused and we talked about getting the ball. That's what happened.
The way the Patriots tried to back me into a corner. It didn't show a lot on their part, ... New England tried to squeeze me with a last-minute deal, so we took a risk and went on the market.
Our record could easily have been 10-6 instead of 6-10 last year if we had been a little tougher at the end of the games. But I think with his personality, his mentality, his approach to the game, we'll be more alert and have a little bit better mindset when the going gets tough.
