I played at LSU stadium a few times, and things were rowdy and fans were yelling things. In the SEC, the quarterback is going to get harassed in those big stadiums. But I don't know if I've ever played in a place where a team had reason to dislike me.
The intensity level is high every game. But when you play Dallas, the intensity is going to go up.
I pumped on that one and he made a great catch, ... That got things going for us. That was a huge play.
I'm upset. You prepare and hope that you go out there in a big game and big situation and play well, and put your team in a situation to win. And today I didn't do that. I didn't play well. I didn't make enough plays. I made too many mistakes for us to win today.
It was just kind of the way the day went.
It's not all about getting one guy into the end zone. It's about getting the team into the end zone, putting up points and winning games.
I had all the confidence in Jay. I knew he was going to hit a big one for us.
All the regular season does is get you to the playoffs. And now you see what you've really got.
I'm just going to try to go out there and play well. Obviously my concerns are about this game against Carolina. I don't have to do anything that's not there and is not going to be open. You have to hit the guys and play smart football.
