crazy far football hurt moss small wish
I never really thought it would happen. I wish he wasn't leaving. I really do. But it was out of my hands. Moss never was a negative, as far as football goes. He did his thing on the field. It was the off-the-field-stuff that was negative. But he never did anything crazy that would really hurt anybody. He would do little, small things.
best great hard luck seeing today wish worked
I don't know him personally, but as a player, he's a great player. He's worked very hard to get where he is, obviously, and I wish him the best of luck. That's what I told him today -- 'best of luck in everything you do.' I know I'll be seeing him and just keep doing what you do.
absolute best biggest teammates wishing
I am wishing for the absolute best for my teammates this season. I will be their biggest fan. I only wish I could be with them on the field.
days definitely few football knew realize team
We just need to get away from football for a few days and realize what we've got here. The thing is, it's going to take some time. We've got a whole new team here when you think about it. We definitely didn't want to be 1-3, but we knew it was going to take some time.
business care talent team took
We feel we've got a lot of talent on this team and we want to do it now. We took care of business in the offseason.
confidence developed gets great lifts mental mistakes swagger watched
I've watched Nate develop, and he's developed real fast. His swagger and confidence are really what lifts him up and gets him going. He has a great mental game. He doesn't make mistakes at all. And he has just made some spectacular plays.
almost bad episode twilight
It was almost like a bad episode of 'The Twilight Zone,'
top
I should have been on top of communicating better with the receivers.
hit playing position
I've been playing this position a long time, and I know how to get out of those situations. I was off my rhythm, but it's not because I was getting hit. I've been getting hit forever. I've just got to make the plays.
glad hopefully looking progress rush
Things are looking good. I'm not going to predict, or rush myself ... I'm just glad to be making the progress that I'm making and hopefully it continues.
flights house ice knee therapist three
Dr. (James) Andrews recommended a therapist in Orlando, and I've got a one-level house here, so I don't have three different flights (of stairs). There's also no ice on the ground, because if you slip, I'll be right back in surgery. It's better for my knee to be here.
bowl defense effort last pro randy reason win
Randy wasn't the reason we didn't win a championship. Randy had a Pro Bowl effort every year. But I do think we'll do better than we did last year. Not because Randy isn't here. I just think our defense is going to be better. That's why we'll be better.
people
People say what they want to say and people are going to make their own opinions.
early fighting fights-and-fighting kept lay situations teams
We didn't lay down. A lot of teams would have just folded up in situations like that. We kept fighting through the whole game, and the one thing that is encouraging is it is early in the season.
