That's all right. He made some nice grabs for me. Can't complain. What is it, maybe his second drop of the season? I'll let it slide. Just this time.
It was 50-50. Give it to the best running back in the league or throw it to the best tight end in the league.
They were a really young defense last year. They're still young but very talented, and (they) just continue to get more and more experience every time they're (on the field) together.
We talked about it all week, how this could be the game that we throw it 50 times, and I think we almost did,
We went into a couple of sports equipment stores and asked if they had heard of Darren Bennett, ... They all said he's great; he made it to America.
We felt our defense had done its part, and it was time for us to do ours and put the game away.
Doug has been great to us, ... He'll come up on the sideline, even if we don't ask him a question, and say, 'Did you see what I did? The reason I did that was because I saw this or that, or they were blitzing a linebacker.' He lays it out for you where you wouldn't know otherwise. It's great, because Doug's my kind of player. He can do a lot of things that other guys can't.
We were focused on the game, through, and didn't think we'd mess with it,
Tom (Condon) and I have been moving full steam ahead trying to evaluate what other options there could potentially be. I'm just waiting to see what free agency has in store for me.
What can you say about L.T. that hasn't already been said other than he's obviously a special player and somebody we rely on quite a bit in everything we do, in the running game, the passing game and just as an offense,
took a moment to kind of just stare at the sky and think about the past seven months.
Everybody was yelling 'we love you Flutie,' and 'you should be the starter.' They're yelling everything, ... They love the guy there. They were yelling stuff at him about when he was the starter back in the '80s, saying 'they never should have let you go.'
At the start of the season, our goal was to win a championship. We were expecting to be in the playoffs, so that wasn't even a goal.
We feel like we have to win because of the situation we're in. I still feel like we're in a position where we control our own destiny. If we win each of these next three games, we're in.
