The champions are in our division, and until you knock the champion out and put them on the floor, they're still the champion. Three of the last four Super Bowl winners have come from this particular division. No question this is the toughest division in football.
If we get to that uncapped year, ... guess where those franchise values are going to go? The arrow will be pointing straight down. You need a salary cap to keep the franchise values up.
Jerry (Gray, defensive coordinator) threw everything that was in our game plan. This was the first week since I've been here that he tried everything. He was trying everything just to find something to click.
On the second one I was a backside half-field player, but (Cory) Bradford never came off the ball so I'm keying him and he immediately took himself out of the route by not running, ... I was able to look back, just helping out and staying active in the play, and I just ran and came down with the ball.
There's nothing like winning. At least you can go home for at least that week and feel half-decent about yourself.
If we're all honest with ourselves, we should expect change. When you're 5-11 with greater expectations, with enough talent on your team to win, you have to.
It's devastating. But we can't lose the swagger. ... We're just going to have to pick up the pieces and keep rolling. No player wants that to happen to them, but that's part of the game.
There has to be something in place. But what we may think is enough or not enough, likewise the men and women running those organizations may say it's enough or not enough. ... Where's that happy balance?
We wanted to emphasize character, being able to be coached, and listening to others.
We missed a ton of tackles. I don't think we're pressing. But we didn't give the offense enough opportunities.
We can't think about someone getting better. But you go along with it. J.P., we believe in him and we respect his ability and we have to rally behind him.
We didn't play good, sound fundamental football. Jerry (Gray, the defensive coordinator) threw everything that was in our game plan, and obviously we didn't make plays. We have to be held accountable as players and make some plays.
We felt there were many minorities that were worthy candidates. None went to minorities and that's an issue.
Together we knew that we could have success.
