I think what people are probably seeing are some similarities. I can understand why the expectations are high, because we have a great deal of talent. We have some guys that can do a lot of good things for us offensively.
I remember when they signed Isaac back, I called and congratulated him. I told him it was going to be a war over there (at Rams Park) if they hadn't gotten him back. We both laughed. It's good to see him back on the field. I'm glad to have another opportunity to play ball with him this season.
For us to come out and put up 42 points, that's the Rams of old. That's what we're used to doing. It's good to get back on track and put up 42 points again.
I have been saying all along that as long as our offensive line protects the quarterback and the defensive line plays well, this will be a good football team, ... I think we displayed that.
He said he was feeling better. He has a pretty good spirit about things, and that's the most important thing. That helps us. If he's high-spirited, then we can go out and be high-spirited.
He always thinks good things, so I'm sure he's thinking positive and hopefully he'll be ready to go, too, on Sunday. He looked real good, he looked crisp. It's a good sign.
It's been different. I have a tremendous amount of respect for Mike and what he can do. His creativity is something we'll miss. But I think coach Fairchild has a good handle on things.
It was good, it was like old times. It was definitely a good sight for all of us to be out there participating.
It goes to show the best team doesn't always win. Stats-wise, we showed we were a better team, but they beat us to the punch.
We're already down one in our division. And now we have another division opponent. We have to go in there and fight. To go down two in the division is tough.
We had a lot of great memories with Kurt, those types of things will flash back leading up to the game,
I wouldn't panic too much, I would say to the people out there, ... We as players aren't panicking, the coaches aren't panicking, and that's the most important thing.
Most important, it allows me upstairs, mentally, to be at ease a little bit.
When we played that first week out there (in San Francisco), they were moving around, and shifting and doing some things to cause problems.
