challenge england expected felt guys note rookie seemed team telling
I was telling the guys that I felt like a rookie all over again, ... It's just a whole new atmosphere. It seemed like in New England everything had become normal, because we're just expected to win. And this is a whole new challenge -- getting this team off on the right note -- and just to be a part of that is exciting.
chances coach far guys relationship sure
Different guys have different things that they're going to do. I'm not really sure as far as what everybody's doing. You have to see who the coach is.

accept aspect ball bottom control deal dealt extremely focusing goes great guys line lying nature nine positive shows team
I don't control where the quarterback goes with the ball or when my play is called, so the bottom line is being positive and focusing on the team aspect and I've been conditioned over my nine years to do that. But it's extremely frustrating; I'd be lying if I told you anything otherwise. But its just the way it is.

appreciate bring build everybody experience gets illustrate redskins remembered wants
It kind of gets old, because you don't just want to be remembered for your past, ... You want to be remembered for what you're doing right now. All of that was good, and I appreciate everything I experienced there, but it's about here and now. What are the Redskins going to do? And when you experience that kind of success, everybody wants to know what you did to get there. Hopefully, I can bring and illustrate those positives, and we can build upon that.

Throughout the 40 minutes we've at least got to put together some good defensive stretches. The shots they missed were because they missed, we didn't pressure anybody. As a whole we need to defend everybody and get some stops, I mean they shot 120 percent.

We won three games like that. And sometimes those games go the other way.
