We don't have a crowd with us. We don't have the people picking us, but we have each other. And that's all we need.

I think Indianapolis misunderstood me. I wanted to knock the rust off, I didn't want them to. I was sluggish at first, but then we picked it up a little better -- just not as well as we should have.

games happens row starts thinking three week win
We like to think so. But we're not going to say we can go three games in a row because we want to go one game in a row. It starts this week at home. Nothing happens if we don't win this game (against Detroit). We're not thinking about anything else.
