best couple effect execute football four game good point teams three together
When you get to this point in the season, there are not a lot of surprises. You have a couple of very good football teams that want to put together their best game plan, and then execute it in detail. There are usually three or four opportunities in any game to make the right play, and have an effect on the outcome. This game probably won't be any different.
circumstance deal effect
It's not the circumstances that effect you, it's how you deal with them.
effect extra football game involved playing speed weather
The extra day won't have any effect on it. We're going to have to weather the flurry that will be involved with the emotions, the speed of the game and playing a high-quality football team.
aware believed certainly deal effect focus hope prepare san talk whatsoever worst
The focus is on winning. There will be no talk whatsoever about any other scenario. We're well aware of what the deal is with San Diego. But that certainly will have no effect with us, because I've always believed you prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
continue desperate giving people seven somewhat team weeks
We've been somewhat of a desperate team for a long time. I think we need to continue to play that way. Like I said before, we are still the same team that, seven weeks ago, not a lot of people were giving us a chance.

We just tried to limit Ben's access this week. You'll all have plenty of chances to talk to him.

We were put in that situation when we lost those three games. We have to come back and win at home against Detroit and go on the road wherever we need to go.

We mixed it up, you have to. We did a good job, dropping eight or mixing pressure to try to disrupt him, get him out of his rhythm.
bringing disrupt dropping eight fortunate fourth good hit job mixed plays pressure trying
We mixed it up and did a good job of dropping eight and bringing pressure and trying to disrupt them and get them out of their rhythm. They hit some big plays there in the fourth quarter, and we were fortunate to get out of there with the win.

We missed him. Yeah, we won some games, but this guy is one of the best at his position in the National Football League and is recognized as such.
allowed change mindset pure
We went back to the pure basics, with the mindset that has allowed us to get to this point. We can't change that now.
coming grind knew turned walking
We had the opportunity, even in overtime. It's very frustrating at this point, walking away with a defeat. We knew coming in that it was going to be a grind and it turned out that way.
certainly challenge last played time
We certainly have to play better than the last time we played them. It's going to be a challenge for us.
certainly dictate history journey players
We certainly aren't going to let history dictate our journey. As I told the players a lot of times, your journey can make history.
