We've been in this offense now for four years,
In our minds, ... we're very confident we should be the best offense in the league. Why not be the best ever? That's why we play the game.
It helps a great deal. Obviously, he's a big part of our offense and our team and it's another weapon. Not only is he very productive, but he also creates for others.
This is a big statement, but we could be as good as any offense ever,
You can't give the other team an opportunity when we have them 21-3 to come back and make it almost a 21-17 game, ... Our defense played championship football. Our offense played winning football. We didn't play championship football.
