guys running
We just try to wad them up, keep 'em contained, have the running back stutter, and then our guys will get there.
cut guys ruthless
Obviously, you don't want to get hurt. But guys still cut (block) and everything. It's ruthless out there.
above college discredit face guys himself nfl played rise sacrificed slap stepped thats tries
I still feel the same way, ... Its a slap in the face to the NFL when someone thats in college tries to put himself above the NFL and above the NFL (Players Association) and what we established and what all the guys who sacrificed that played before me and before him, before he stepped on the field,to rise up and try to be better than that, is a discredit to the guys that played this game.
against bigger cuts excited guys small tough
I'm excited to see how he does. He's small but he can go out and play against the bigger guys and be tough about it. His cuts are unbelievable. You don't want to overrun him. He can make it tough on a lot of defenders.
ask exact good guys larger questions school sit stuff
It was good to sit there and ask them questions about the stuff that they are doing and what we are doing and about their school as well. We do the exact same thing you guys are doing in this program, just on a larger scale.
lying winning years
It's not an issue. Everyone's focused on us trying to get a victory. That's where the focus lies. ... We're trying to win a game. Who cares about that (other stuff). If we'd played 'em two years ago when it happened, maybe it would be different.
trying win
to (heck) with him. Were trying to win the game.
great missed opportunity
We had a great opportunity and we missed it.
slip
We let one slip away. We've got to find a way to make plays. At least we will have Gates.
grew lifelong
I grew up here. I'm a lifelong Chargers fan.
ten worry
I don't even worry about that anymore. .Ê.Ê. Ten years it hasn't happened.
against bottom good lick line mean playing win
I always want to get a good lick on the quarterback, but it really doesn't mean anything to us right now that we're playing against Eli. The bottom line is that we need to get in the win column.
hitting takes whatever
I'm all about whatever it takes for us to win. If that's hitting Eli Manning in the mouth, then we'll hit him in the mouth.
obviously opportunity understand
Obviously it was very disappointing and frustrating. We understand the opportunity that we had to get (in the playoffs). There's nothing we can do now but go out and try to go 10-6.
