came finger happened none owe people seem tradition
It's perplexing, ... None of us seem to be able to put our finger on what has happened here. There is so much tradition in this organization, and we feel like we owe it to the people who came before us to win.
days
It was just one of those days ? should have made the kicks.
good hit people scenario
Not many people know that my scholarship was to punt there. It will take a little to get used to, but I hit some good ones today. If worst-case scenario I need to, I could get us through, for sure.
adrenaline ball feels games quicker rob seems smooth snaps
It seems like in games with the adrenaline you have going, Rob (Davis) snaps it quicker and I come to the ball a little faster, so I think he feels he has to get it down a little faster, which isn't the case. He can be smooth and put it down.
I've done it enough to be comfortable with it.
recovery
This has nothing to do with B.J., because I think he's made the recovery and will be fine,
best
The guy's got nothing to prove. He's the best quarterback I've ever seen.
forget guided hesitant last nfl swing though
I was a little hesitant (on the 50-yarder). I didn't swing away on that one and kind of guided it through. We'll be fine. You forget that even though he was around last year, this was his first NFL game.
best friend good miss
I miss him every day, without question, ... It's one thing to have a friend and a good teammate, but I would say he's probably my best friend, other than my wife.
ball came crazy drops good handled hands hit impressed nervous sure
He hit the ball really clean. He has really good hands and drops the ball pretty low, which you need to do in Lambeau. I'm sure he'll be nervous like we all were our first game. But I'm pretty impressed that he came in and handled a pretty crazy day pretty smoothly.
best fun locker overcome remember room rooms win
Man, it was a big win for us. I remember that locker room after the game, and it was one of the best locker rooms I've ever been in. It was fun to overcome something as a team.
anybody causes deal decision everybody key lose player screw soon sort stupid tension
You just don't want anybody to screw it up, ... If you lose a key player to a stupid decision ... as soon as anybody that causes any sort of stir, then everybody has to deal with it. It just causes tension that you don't need.
came chance wore
I wore No. 4 at Cal. Obviously, I didn't have a chance when I came here.
came eats game great last people played saying stretch year
He's always played the game with so much emotion. When you have a game like the other day, when you put everything into it and come up short, it eats away at you. Last year at 1-4, people were saying that was it, but he came back with a great stretch run. I wouldn't write him off just yet.
