That's part of being the local guy, ... If you are the local guy in Louisiana, I know those fans, they love their local guy.
They tried to take Steve Smith out of the game, which they did a bit, but that opened up things for other people,
Amazing, isn't it? We're 10-5 and nothing's really happened yet.
We still want to control the clock. Hopefully we're a smarter team now.
We want to run the ball, ... I think that is our blueprint for success. And we do that pretty well.
Wow! I don't know who he is, but my God. We have racehorses back home ... maybe I can order a muzzle.
When we came in here a couple of games ago, basically I lost the game for us. It was basically the opposite of today.
When we came here a couple of months ago, I lost that game for us. I threw two picks in the first three series and it was 10-0. When you play from behind, it's different than when you play with the lead.
When we came a couple months ago, basically I lost the game. It was nice to come back and get on top this time. They're a good defense, but we stepped up to the challenge.

We know it's going to be tough. They played five quarters last week and went down to the wire against Tampa Bay, and they're going to come out ready to play against us. We just have to match that intensity and try and do some good things.
In practice, you can only simulate so much stuff. When you're live, things are different. You can't always drop back, set your feet, and throw the ball. You've got to be able to move around back there and make people miss and find your guys. I think Stefan does that extremely well.

It doesn't happen in this League, not with the way defenses move around and guys play. You've got to be able to move around back there and make people miss and find your guys. I think Stefan does that extremely well.
