I enjoy it and I love it. I'll watch the AFC games and I'll watch the NFC games. Sometimes it's fun to be a fan, too.
That was fun n a little sloppy at times, but some of the most exciting plays I've seen all year. Coach Fox promised, by the end of the week, 'We'll put a smile on your face.' All the Seattle guys were smiling.
No, I don't really care. Either way, it's going to be a tough game. Whoever it is, I'm just glad we get to play it at our place. It will be fun to watch and let everybody beat each other up.
They are actually fun to watch. It's fun to watch film because they are so good. But at the same time you realize you have to play them this week.
Part of me feels like we were just happy to be there back then and if we won it would just be an added bonus. I don't think that's the case on this team. This team talks about it less, but in a funny way, we believe it more. Back then we talked about it more and believed it less. I like it better this way.
He's been very successful early in his career, and his numbers are incredible. If I had a fantasy team, he'd probably be my first pick at quarterback. He's a huge guy, physically intimidating. He moves well and is fun to watch. I respect his game and love the way he plays.
That was fun -- a little sloppy at times, but some of the most exciting plays I've seen all year.
There was a time when we talked about how good a team we were but I'm not sure we believed it. Now we don't talk about it so much but I know we believe it.
I don't think he faded under pressure. I thought he made some really good plays, and I'm sure he'd tell you there's some plays he'd like to have back.
My only eligible receivers were on that side of the field and I didn't have enough on the ball.
The bathroom that is right in front of my seat is nicer than the bathroom in my first house that I owned.
He can't use that excuse anymore that he's got a thankless job. He can actually do something good and get noticed for it.
It is good to know that he is heading in the right direction, and we can focus on what we need to focus on.
It was one of those, 'Please get out of bounds. Please get out of bounds,'
