We still have a chance to improve on that. Right now, we are not performing up to our standard.
It has been shocking, because I know that we have the talent out there to perform better. With the careers that we've had and the resumes we brought into this team, we're not performing at that level.
We have to figure out how to blow teams out when we have them on the ropes.
It would be nice. I think if it came in a better season, it would be a little more enjoyable, but it would still be a nice personal accomplishment. Records are made to be broken, so we'll see.
It was tough for me to hold back some emotion when I saw it on the bottom of the screen. I talked to him, and he says he's going to come back stronger. That's the type of attitude that he has.
I've been shocked from the get-go with this team,
The whole season was emotionally trying. We went through so many ups and downs, on such a roller coaster. It was a season that had a lot of scenarios, good things and bad things. But the end result is we had a winning record, and that's a positive.
(Roman) is healthy and playing a lot faster and more aggressive than he was last year, ... I've had a chance to see the other young kid, Collins, a little bit. He looks like he's going to be a good player for them. He wears the same number as LeRoy Butler (No. 36) and is kind of similar to LeRoy as far as build.
Randy is in his own league. But there are still a lot of good receivers in the division.
Continuity is the best thing for our team to improve. We can win a championship with the staff and players we have here.
The toughest thing about being a defensive back in the NFL is you do your job, you don't get credit, but if you mess up one time, you can be the goat. I always try to play the same style of game no matter who I'm going up against.
The toughest for me to tackle? Barry Sanders. He was so elusive. And strong. And fast. And small.
I wasn't on the boat, ... so I don't have any comment.
I still might have hoped that Green Bay was 1-4 and we might have been 4-1, but that's not the case. Both teams are scrounging for a victory.
