believe carry cocky confident football hard hopefully starting team week work
I think this team was confident going into week one. We're a team that is confident, but not a cocky football team. We work hard and we believe that we'll go out and play well on Sundays. It's starting to carry over now, so hopefully we'll keep it up.

I am here to play football, I am here to have fun, ... I don't take advantage because I was put on a good football team.
best dominated football good played team year
You have to give them credit. That's a good football team. They were the best team in the NFC all year and they played better than us today. That's for sure. They dominated the day today.
coming football games good move next sit team tomorrow tonight
Tonight and tomorrow are going to be tough, but we've got to move on. We've got 15 more games and they come quick, real quick. We can't sit here and sulk because we've got a good football team coming in here next week.
bad bring doubt drive field football goal good guy highest highs kick lower picked win
Football can bring you the highest highs and the lower lows, and it doesn't get any lower than this. We had a good drive going, there was no doubt that we were going to kick the field goal and win the game. I made a bad throw, and the guy picked it off.
football people roll run steve
The way that you get people not to roll with Steve is you run the football effectively.
couple decisions defensive early ears football fun great job largely line pin points throw
It happened. They did a great job that game. Certainly, we spotted them 10 points early on largely in part to a couple of important decisions by me. Certainly, we had to play catch-up from then on. And when you have to throw the football and the defensive line can just pin their ears back and go, it's not a fun day sometimes.
block couple football hits love sees
Stephen has unbelievable vision. That's why the lineman love to block for him. If he sees it, he hits it. There's no hesitation. He hits it and goes. Look what he did a couple of years ago. If we can get him back, he makes us a better football team.
arizona bay certain change defense extra football game green guy happen help plan played roll running somewhat type
Arizona, do they change their whole game plan to be like Green Bay? Green Bay had kind of played that defense somewhat where they would roll to a certain side, ... Arizona is not really that type of team. They are an eight-in-the-box kind of football team. So we'll see what happens. But if that doesn't happen that should help our running game, because that's an extra guy out of the box.
create defensive ears football four front fun line pin throw
Their front four really create pressure. When you have to throw the football and the defensive line can just pin their ears back and go, it is not a fun day sometimes.
along chance deeper dive fast fun gives goes moved overall pace putting year
We moved at that fast pace in camp. We got a lot of things done. It wasn't like that first year when you're putting in a new system, where it was like, 'This goes in today.' You will have some mess-ups along the way, but overall it gives you the chance to, I guess, dive deeper into the offense. And it's quicker. That's what makes it fun as a player.
behind career couple extremely game girl guys last learn light mean move played saying scar slept spend talked team throw time watch
When I talked to you guys after the game on Sunday, it was just one of those things where, if you've ever played a team sport, you're down, ... Certainly, I was extremely down. But things get put into perspective. When I get home, I have a little girl and get to spend time with her. It doesn't take away the pain, especially when you watch it on film. But that's the NFL. I don't mean to make light of it but I'll probably throw another one before my career is up. That's just part of it. It's going to happen. I've slept well the last couple of nights. You have to move on. I try to put things behind me. I'm not saying it's not a scar or anything, but you have to learn and move on.
good lines solid sunday team
We feel we're a solid team. But going out and doing it is another. We have a good team on paper, but if you can't play between those lines on Sunday it does you no good.
along coach deeper dive expected fast faster fox fun likes move offense
We expected to move at a fast pace, and that's how coach Fox likes to practice. That's what's fun. ... You will have some mess-ups along the line, but you can move at a faster pace, and dive deeper into the offense quicker. And that's what makes it fun as a player.
