best game overlooked three
We're not the Giants. If they overlooked us, didn't play their best game, whatever. We didn't play our best game either. They scored three points, so we didn't play our best game. They scored on us; they shouldn't have.
best defense extra year
We've had an extra year in the system. I don't see why we can't be the best defense in the league.
best needed offensive player
When they needed a play, he made it. He's the best offensive player in the league.
best experts hear team
I hear so-called experts say Carolina's the best team in the NFC. Well, let's see if they're right.
flying plays
We're flying to the ball. We're making plays when we have to.
good tradition
We know about the tradition here and all that good stuff. We've just got to make plays. That's what it comes down to. We know there's a lot of good defenses here in the past, and we feel like we're one of those teams.
team winning play
All I can do is go out there and play hard and try and help my team win, and that's what I'm going to keep doing.
play work-out plans
Steve Smith, thats what happened to us. He just kept making plays. We had a plan. We never really doubled him. We ran a lot of Cover 2, and obviously that didnt work out too good for us.
media two people
Two of the people I don't care about: fans or media,
running mistake team
But I hate the way our identity has changed. We used to establish the run and wear teams down and try not to make mistakes, and we’d rely on our defense to keep us in the game and make big plays to put us in position to win. Kyle Orton might not be the flashiest quarterback, but the guy is a winner, and that formula worked for us. I hate to say it, but that’s the truth.
football player want
I want to be remembered as a championship football player.
fun having-fun littles
You've got to be a little nasty out there. But most of the time, I'm having fun.
happens
I see things as they happen pretty quick, and I just go hit it.
thinking people want
You want to be the best at your position. And if people think of me as one of the best ever, that's the ultimate compliment.
