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.
But that happens constantly, and then you get into a game and there are a thousand things going on and you have to make split-second decisions.
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.
Taking part in these types of programs is crucial to our youth and crucial to the future of this game.
Injuries are part of the game, but sometimes we can avoid them by just practicing our techniques.
Coaches aren't concentrating enough of the technical part of this game and that could lead to injuries.

It's not bittersweet at all. I feel exactly the same way I have for my 13 years in the NFL. You don't like watching two other teams going to the Super Bowl. But I'm overjoyed for them.
He's a smart guy, very savvy. He's been doing it for so many years at a high level, so it's second nature to him. You are not going to blitz him out of anything. He's seen every coverage that's ever been devised.
