everybody gets kick missed seems year
It seems like every year there's a big kick that's missed and everybody gets all over the kickers.
call field goal gone gotten missed position smart
It was a smart call because had I missed and they had gone down boom, boom, boom, they could have gotten into field goal position pretty easily,
guy hit missed
I told him that he was lucky. The only thing he hit was the ball. He missed the guy completely.
against beating capable coming great left prepared team work
We know we have a lot of work to do. There's still some big-time work left against the Steelers. They're a great team and very capable of coming in here and beating us if we're not prepared for them.
good great hopefully mature maturity surrounded team veteran
Well, obviously, it's a different team, but we were a very mature team (in 1997 and 1998). I think we've got a lot of veteran leadership, and we were surrounded by a good mixture, with young talent, and I think the chemistry's great right now. We're very healthy. Hopefully we can keep this thing going.
everybody luxury
We don't have the luxury of everybody just sitting. We've got to play some starters.
san sneak win
We were able to sneak back in and win (over San Diego) at the end, and that kind of got us on a roll.
days heard heyday high loud mile
That's just like the old Mile High days when we were in the heyday with John. That was as loud as I've heard them in this stadium. And I don't know if there's been anything close.
confidence feeling swing trust
You're never feeling comfortable out there, ... You just try to trust your swing and let it go. If you miss, you miss. You've just got to have confidence that you're not going to miss.
hope line miss pray swing trust ultimately willing
You really hope and pray it's not you if it comes down to that. But ultimately you know you're going to miss some kicks, and you hope it's not the big ones. You line up, and all I do is trust my swing and let it go. And you have to be willing to live with the outcome.
good greatly last team
I think we'll be greatly improved, and on a team I think was pretty good last year.
everybody last seeing six team
Just seeing the team chemistry, how everybody got along, how everybody interacted, that was a lot different than it has been the last five, six years.
ball bowl compliment giving great john move offense players position productive score super tribute
I think that's more of a compliment to the offenses I've been part of. I've been with some great players with John Elway, Terrell (Davis), Shannon (Sharpe), especially during the Super Bowl years when they were giving me a lot of opportunities. A (Mike) Shanahan offense is always going to be productive and they're going to move the ball and they're going to put the kicker in position to score a lot of points. It's more of a tribute to them than it is to me.
excited fans field gearing road team winning
Going on the road will be tough, but that's what we've been gearing up for, to go and get that first one under our belt. If we go out and play well I just think that's going to give us a lot of confidence. We're excited right now. And we want to put a winning team on the field for our fans and for (Denver) and get back to where we were.
