against arguably ball best defensive feeling fist hit human human-nature imagine jerk later lose move sleep sooner start taking
When you're going against arguably the best defensive lineman in the game, you're going to lose some sleep at night, especially when you're feeling that he's in a zone. It's human nature. If you see me ball up my fist to hit you, you're going to move out the way, right? Just imagine that. When you start taking those punches, sooner or later you're going to jerk back.
ball brady fall pieces practice throw worry
If it's having Brady throw the ball 40-50 times, that's what they're going to do. You just have to practice for everything and play. We can't look at it like, 'Jenks isn't here now so we have to worry about that side.' We have to just play and let the pieces fall where they may.
ball coming count field guys keeps pounding sure
He keeps his balance. I can't count how many times you think, 'He's down, they got him' and he's coming out the back end, going down the field with speed. You need 11 guys coming to the ball making sure he's down. Keep pounding and pounding him and make sure he's on the ground.
almost backs ball michael might running sound start
You've got to play sound defense. This is one of those running backs where the play might start to the right, but it might end up on the left. He's almost Michael Vick when he has the ball in his hands.
ball came found moved needed played
You can't take nothing away from them. They came out and played hard. Rex found a little groove, and they moved the ball some. But when we needed a stop, we usually got it. And when we got the ball back for the offense, they usually did something with it.
national people report
We don't want national cameras. We just want to play football. Let the people write what they write, let them report what they want to report.

We challenged ourselves this week to know the Giants better than they knew themselves.
defense impressive nfl seen since
I've seen a lot of football. I haven't seen a defense since I've been in the NFL that's more impressive than that defense.

The storybook ending. You want to go out in the playoffs, hopefully in the bowl holding up that trophy at the end.
early eight granted looking name natural nine people second start super win
Early on, it's natural that you take it for granted (you'll win a Super Bowl). You're like, 'Oh, this is my first year, my second year, my third, fourth.' Then you start getting around eight and nine and you start looking at rosters and there are not too many people that have nine or 10 after their name in (years of) experience.
early eight looking name natural nine people second start
Early (in your career), it's natural you take it for granted. Oh, this is my first year, my second year, third, fourth. Then you start getting around eight and nine and you start looking at other rosters and there are not too many people that have nine and 10s after their name in experience.
carries guess learn players tradition winning
Really? Cool. Go Tigers. Clemson has a winning tradition and the players learn that while they're there. I guess it carries over to the NFL.
ask brown hit missed ronnie run until yards
Ronnie Brown didn't do nothing -- don't even come over here with anything about Ronnie Brown. Ronnie Brown had 37 yards until he hit that one long run. And he hit that one long run because we missed an assignment. So don't ask me what Ronnie Brown was doing to get those yards. Go look at the stats. Ronnie Brown had 37 yards until he got that one long run, so he didn't do nothing. It's all about what we didn't do right.
dan defensive disruptive fly great guys job key morgan sure tackle
That's the key for most defenses. Your job as a defensive tackle is to make sure those guys are untouched. Dan Morgan is like my quarterback. If he's untouched and making plays, then I'm doing a great job. If you're disruptive inside, you can let a guy like Dan Morgan fly to the ball, you're going to have some success.
