game past played practice run saw tried trying
We saw in the preseason all the defenses they're trying to put in, but when they get into games, I think they'll find they can't run all that stuff, ... It's just like our offense. We didn't show everything. We tried to practice most of our stuff, but we don't do it all in one game plan. There's only 60 to 70 plays. So we don't know what to expect. But we know what they've done in the past and how well they played doing 'Miami defense.'

I'm surprised and shocked that we're still talking about it, ... We're playing San Diego this week and they're division rivals. You guys are talking about it amongst yourselves. We're moving on. . . . We're not going to sit here and mope and whine. We're not going to sit here and worry about what we did down there. It's over. It's done. We don't like how it happened, but now the only thing we can do is go play San Diego.

I'm young. My finger was broken once in my career. Other than that I've had no broken bones. I'm a healthy kid. I'll heal fast. There's still a lot left in the season. That at least makes me happy knowing I can come back in three, four, five weeks and have an impact.
ball smarter throw trying
I'm trying to be smarter with the ball. We are getting leads, so we don't have to throw all the time. If you can do that, you can be smart with the ball and not make mistakes.

During the week, if there's little things I might see, I might say something, but they're usually on top of it before I see it, ... With the type of offensive minds we have here, I'm not going to compete with that.

You aren't going to have someone fly in and tag the holder, ... You do that kind of stuff and there's going to be some bad stuff happening around the field.
ability advantage against athletic bailey ball biggest break champ cover giving great mistake past pay played plays pure reasons skills teammate
Well, he's my teammate now, but I've played against him enough times in the past to know that Champ Bailey is the best. The biggest reasons are his cover skills and his ability to make you pay for any mistake you make. When you don't think he's in position, and you try to take advantage of that, he has such great ability to break to the ball and make up that ground. He'll make you pay, and that's just great cover skills and pure athletic ability. He also doesn't take plays off, so he's always giving you his best.
defense miss
We didn't make the most out of the opportunities we had. When you play a defense like that, you can't miss opportunities.
