with the mentality of going out and scoring 40 points.
We've already got things lined up, and we'll be rocking and rolling the minute the clock strikes midnight.
We've used the word Superman without the cape. We've used a lot of terms to describe LT. I just think he never ceases to amaze.
We're starting to get in that rhythm we need to be in,
When we had gone 0-2 and a lot of people doubted our confidence, and to come out and have win like this where everybody performed so well is just what we needed.
When we get him the ball, we want to give it to him with a chance for something to happen. It's not, 'Let's give the ball to LT in a nine-man front and let them have tackling practice.' That's not the point. When we encounter every game situation, we're looking at how we can put LT in a situation to succeed, whether it's throwing it to him or handing it off.

I know they've been able to put in a lot of subs over the years and not miss anything, but a player like Rodney is something special.
In the celebration in the end zone I said, 'Superman, you can do it all. He can do a lot of things. Obviously, he had a big game today.
If you told me the score was going to be 20-7, obviously I feel like offensively we're better than that.
