After the first drive I guess they said they felt like they had to stop me and they started putting three and four guys on me. I still made some big plays in the game, but you can't make everything.
I don't even care about that. We can't get into what somebody else is doing. That's their problems over there. We don't even know the situation to get involved over there. I know guys over there, I know Fred Smoot, Moe Williams, but I don't talk to them on a day-to-day basis so I don't care what goes on in the Minnesota locker room.
He still looks good to me. He is still throwing the ball well. He is still the leader out there on the field. That's pretty much all you need. You've got a guy who's going to go out there and tell you, 'You need to do this, and you need to do that.' If you stick by what he says, you're pretty much doing the right thing.
We owe those guys. Those guys beat us at home last time. It's payback. It's called a rematch. It's just like playing a Madden game -- you get beat and you want a rematch. We want a rematch.
We can't even call ourselves a trio, ... We have to call ourselves a foursome because we have four guys who can change the game at any time.
In minicamps, who was it? I was the flanker. Ferguson was the split end,
The ball was just off line. I looked back for it and the wind held it inside. The wind was a big factor. It was pretty much the wind today.
I'm worried, because I don't know what's going to happen.
I'm hoping that Brett comes back for another year. I hope Mike comes back. No one knows what the future holds right now. What we did today is we started a new year. We wanted to make sure we started 2006 off on a good note. We'll see what happens.
It was nice that he received that ovation. It seemed like the passing of the torch; I know Aaron hopes it is, but I hope he still has to wait at least one more year.
Oh, it's a big loss. That's our star running back and they always say we've got to establish the running game.
I want him here. I think he's a great coach. That's not up to me.
I want him here. I think he's a great coach. But I don't make those decisions. It's up to the organization. I'm hoping he comes back.
It's great. They have really high-quality things. Things you don't see anywhere else.
