calling cutting deal hard people plays time
You talk all the time about being connected, being a unit, believing in each other. But if you have unnamed sources, people out there cutting you down, and then you find out it's the person calling the plays - that would be really hard to deal with, to look at him the same way.
best defense far good guy hands played poked saw spit
That's the best defense we've played all year, but by far the cheapest, ... I got spit on. I make a good block, and the guy spits on me. I saw that too many times today. It's disgusting. I got poked in the eye. They had their hands in our facemasks all day.
thinking play people
I think being recognized more is something you have to get used to, whether it's your homeland or when you're traveling. People recognize me from my play or a commercial I've done. It's just a normal part of life.
pain games play
The thing you realize as you get older and you play, that you don't really understand when you're a backup the first few offseasons, how important that mental rest is. It's a grind physically during the season, dealing with the hits and the physical pain that goes with playing in this game. But mentally it's probably more taxing, so you need that ability to find that escape.
anyone ball defense dominant drove field game played watched
Anyone who watched the game would see we were the dominant team. We drove the ball up and down the field and our defense played great.
executing game good gotten knowledge matter mostly offense playing
I think after the game it was mostly frustration - not playing as well as I'd like to, not executing like I know I can. You can see in practice, I've had a real good camp. Made a lot of strides, made a lot of plays. I feel like my knowledge of the offense has gotten better each day and I've gotten more and more comfortable. It's just a matter of transferring that into the game.
drops feet listen spent time trust trying
I've spent years trying to time up my drops with my throws. You learn to listen to your feet and trust your positions.
attention great last paying three
Brady's a great quarterback, ... But I've got Brett Favre on my team. I've been paying attention to everything he's been doing for the last three weeks.
looked phenomenal
Brett was phenomenal today. The day before his 36th birthday, he looked like a 22-year-old out there. Unbelievable.

sit
Brett's done too much for this organization for them ever to sit him down,
minimum taking
There should be a minimum on the air pressure but not a maximum. Every game, they're taking air out of the footballs I'm throwing, and I think that's a disadvantage for the way that I like them prepped.
decisions goal good night productive yards
We just couldn't get anything going. Not a productive night. My goal has been not just yards or numbers, but to make good decisions and not have any turnovers. I didn't make good decisions and I had a turnover.
backup couple definitely happen needs nice ready
It'd be nice to get a couple warmup throws, but I went out there cold-turkey. And that's what a backup needs to do - be ready at any time. On this team, with Brett Favre in charge, that doesn't happen much, but if I am the No. 2 guy, I'll definitely be ready.
