defence goal
Our goal as a defence is to go out there and dominate. I think we did that.
figures producing worry
I don't know what the figures look like, yet, I really don't get into that. I just worry about producing on the field.
adds apart ball bit coming complete far guys hit pride run sets support versatile
I think what sets me and Terrence apart is we're complete corners, ... We're versatile as far as covering, and we take a lot of pride in coming up on run support and making a hit on the ball carrier. When you have guys who can do a little bit of everything, it adds so much more to the defense.
confidence definitely girlfriend good guess hear loves style
It's definitely important for a corner. I always play with freedom. I guess it's like when you know your girlfriend loves you, but it's always good to hear her tell you. I always play with freedom, but with that reassurance, it just allows me to play with more confidence and play my style of football.
ball behind close corner looked run saw tried turned
I didn't really see the ball thrown, ... (Chambers) tried to run in between me and Troy and I was close enough to him that I looked up and saw the ball out the corner of my eye. I saw that it was going behind my back, so I just turned around and it was there.

(Defensive coordinator) Jerry Gray feels the same way I feel,
good wrong
Everything is fine, ... There is nothing wrong with me. I'm good to go.
easy edge front
It's not easy when you're one-on-one out there and you've got to make the tackle, ... You have to be disciplined when you're out there on the edge and keep everything in front of you.
care corners hitting shy
A lot of corners just don't care for tackling. But we like hitting and we won't shy away from contact.
fortunate guess practice prepare reason
I prepare the same, I practice the same, and I play the same. I don't know the reason for it. I guess I'm just fortunate enough to have their number.
athletic choose fast guy pick single sit
He's an athletic receiver, big, fast and strong, ... You just can't let him know what you're going to do. You have to keep him guessing. I can't sit there and try to outmuscle the guy every single snap. It's not going to really work. You pick and choose your spots.
accomplish care held responsibility statement trying win
It's not like I was trying to make a statement to anybody. I just play. What I really wanted to accomplish was win first. Be held accountable for what I do and take care of my responsibility and get a win out of it.
confidence period start top victory
This victory period is a big confidence boost. This is something that can start a snowball effect. . . . For us to come out on top it's huge.
estate good market
We feel pretty good about the real estate market right now.
