attention davis feels focus guy mean playing respond security wife
That security didn't respond before Antonio Davis responded? I mean this guy was playing a game. His attention and focus should be on the game. If he feels his wife is in enough danger, where he has to go out in the audience, why wouldn't security see that? To me, it's inexcusable.
flow forcing maturity mistakes momentum offense patience penalties regardless relying
We're not an offense that can get everything back in one chunk. When you have an offense like that, you are relying on patience. Sometimes maturity is something that allows patience to happen. They weren't forcing us into doing anything we didn't want to do, but regardless the penalties and the mistakes we were making were negating any flow of momentum we had.
bowl people super walk wall
They walk down that wall down there that has all the Super Bowl memorabilia on it and they have no idea who the people are.
against answer filling guys lost played ready spots talented
We lost a lot of talent. Shoot, two of our most talented guys played against us. But the guys we have filling those spots are ready to answer the bell.

To be in a backup role, where I'm not sure if or when I am going to play, I have never done that. I am not sure that would work for me.
bad continue four games good silly stuff
You got to take the good with the bad and we have to take the stupid, little silly stuff that we continue to do. We're just four games into this.
absolutely benefits everybody higher precedent setting standard team veterans
Absolutely everyone can improve, and the veterans especially, in setting that kind of precedent that we don't make those little mistakes, that we don't fumble the ball, that we don't get unnecessary penalties. We kind of try to set a higher standard for everybody where the team benefits more. We can all do that.
defense hard obviously offense points score
It's obviously very hard for them to score points if their offense isn't on the field. We know our defense is up for the challenge.
almost good guys pick players supposed watching
It's almost habitual. When the guys are watching other players who have been there, you kind of pick up the sense of where you are supposed to be and what you're supposed to do and all those good things.
against far good job seen team teams
It was a team protection. We did a good job as far as what could have happened. We've seen him against other teams being very disruptive.
advantage clears games improving left means opportunity
This by no means clears the slate. We're 1-1. We wanted to be 2-0. We have a lot of improving to do. We have 14 games left and we want to take advantage of every opportunity we have.
bright men
They are all bright young men and real hustlers.
emphasis people pittsburgh
So many people put so much emphasis on the Pittsburgh game,
ready
I was so anxious. It was just a little anxiety. I was ready to go. I was just being stupid. I was probably a little rusty.
