From the outside, you really wouldn't notice, but it may have been just five or six plays where I felt like I could have dodged a (defender) or made a throw, ... Last year, maybe I dodged a guy, but I was not able to make a throw, or made a throw and was not accurate. I wanted to have a little more stamina and within a 5-yard box be quicker.
I'd like to play at least as much if not more than I did last week. Last week was not a good game. We all know that.
I've found myself over the last 24 hours a couple times saying, 'Why me?' or, 'Why of all places ...' ... As quickly as that thought pops in my head ? and it probably pops in my head more than I'd like it to ? I try to remind myself of the things to be thankful for, which there are a lot.
You're only as good as your last pass.
I said, 'You know, Darrell, if I decide to come back, I feel like the last two or three years, I cheated myself - which obviously ends up cheating your teammates - as far as being in the best shape physically and mentally that you can possibly be in,'
He had just a phenomenal year last year. I think anyone who has any football sense at all knows that these five games (are) no indication of what type of quarterback he is,
I probably slept two hours last night, and the whole time I slept, I had nightmares about should I go or should I stay? If I go, what do I do? If I don't go, how guilty will I feel for not being there?
The things we needed on defense, he stepped up to the plate.
As I talked with (coach) Mike (Sherman) after that game that night, I really didn't know. If I had to make a decision at that particular time, which I knew I didn't, I was not coming back (for the 2005 season),
Was he saying that after we beat Detroit? I wonder what he says now? 'Maybe he can stick around a little longer.'
There's no airport. Pretty much everyone is better off staying put.
I would love to go in. I thought about getting to Tennessee tonight and driving in with some supplies.
Mike had his mind made up Saturday, but we didn't know until Sunday. Until I went out there and took the first snap, you don't know. I might have just gone, 'I can't do it.' Once the newness wears off and the toughness wears off, 'I just can't do it.' And I was probably as immobile as I've ever been. I couldn't do anything.
We have to score points. We have to be aggressive, but we can't make mistakes,
