ahead focused game hand hard last light lost pushing super trying year
We were focused on what was at hand ... this season, this game here. It's kind of hard to look ahead sometimes and try to see the light, but that was the light. The light was we lost last year in the Super Bowl, and we're trying to get back there. ... We're all pushing for that same goal.
game last year
No year is a cakewalk. Last year, we just steamrolled through people. Every game is not going to be like that.

We can go out and win every game. We talked about winning; it starts with the first game. We have another tough game coming up and I see no reason why we can't win that one.

confidence game hopefully losing mentality nasty releases rest start taste winning
Winning does something to you. It releases something in you, it's confidence and you get that nasty taste of losing out of your mouth. You get that losing mentality out of your system. That first game is going to be critical. Once we get that first game, hopefully it will be this week, we can start doing what we need to do for the rest of the season.

We definitely expect when he gets in a game for him to make a play. We expect those things from him now.
bumps confidence game guys helps legs next physical short takes week
I don't know if a short week ever helps you when you play a physical sport like football. But I have the confidence the guys will do what it takes to get their legs back, to get the bumps out, and will come out this next game swinging. That's all you can do come back and come out swinging.
game rest
That game is over with. We have to get on with the rest of the season.
blown defensive game happens hard mental plan running start
It's hard to say, ... Some of them are blown assignments. Mental mistakes. When that happens as a defense, we're all beaten. Not just that one person. We have to start running our defensive game plan to perfection. Right now, we're not doing that.
defensive definitely excited game given guys happen hooking knowing love player receiver type waiting
That's something special, to have the type of quarterback that Donovan is and to have the type or receiver that Terrell is. For those guys to keep hooking up game after game, and to go into every game knowing that is potentially a touchdown waiting to happen at any given point, as a defensive player you love that. I'm definitely excited for those guys and the way they've been able to click.
