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.
chance fine gave last nobody week
Nobody gave us a chance last week and that's fine with us.
continue couple expect hard last playing season week weeks
We've been playing the last couple weeks like it's a one-game season for us and we have to continue to do that. This week is no different. We expect them to come in and play very hard and we have to have our 'A' game.
goal points score time touched week
Our goal every week is to keep Gardocki off the field. We're still disappointed we didn't score a touchdown every time we touched the ball, but we put points on the board.
against game week
We don't think about that. We take it one game at a time. Every week we have a one-game season. This week we are 0-0 going against New England.

The first two weeks we did very well on offense,

Indianapolis misunderstood me. I said I wanted to knock the rust off, but they knocked the rust off.

I know the feeling of losing and disappointment and I don't want to feel that again. That feeling in your heart ... it just sticks with you.
believe coaching coming credit knew last special staff team year
I knew that we had a pretty special team coming into this year and I just had to play my part and get better and do better than I did last year. The development has been a big thing. I've come a long way. We've come a long way as a team and I think that is a credit to the coaching staff and the players. We believe in what we do.

I'm just trying to take it one step at a time and be better prepared for everything that is thrown my way and just making sure mentally that I'm sharp.
football last mistake nervous win
I'm more comfortable now. Last year, it was kind of 'Oh my gosh, I'm so nervous and scared, here we go. Don't make a mistake.' I'm not going to go out and play not to make a mistake this year. I'm going to go out to win football games.
balanced coming couple last prove season stops throw throwing won
Everyone always said coming into the end of the season that if we had to throw the ball, if someone stops the run, then we won't be able to win. But in the last couple games, we have won by throwing the ball. We can prove that we are a balanced offense.
against card disrespect everybody good media teams underdog wants
Everybody wants you to play the underdog card or the disrespect card. That's for the media. We don't disrespect them, and they are not favoring us. This is two good teams going against each other.
job people
Once again, people said we couldn't win. But we just went in there, did our job and won.
