At this point, I want to be good enough (at linebacker) to win games.
We have a lot of respect for him. He's a very good talent. He can run. He's quick. He's powerful. He has great vision. If we can't stop him, it's going to be a long day.
I think this will be a good gage to see where we are. We need to go out there and perform well.
It was a mistake by me. I should have been on the other side. It's not a good feeling. I saw what the route was going to be and just misplayed it. I could have made a play on the ball, but I just misplayed it.
It's more of a thinking man's game. It isn't easy to be down in a three-point stance one play and rush the quarterback, and get up and turn and drop and cover a receiver or back the next. I think it will be a good fit once I learn what the heck I'm doing.
We're not good enough to overcome killing ourselves all the time. But we're getting there.
Just stupid, people doing dumb stuff, me included. I've seen games that are dump and stupid and sloppy, and you get your (butt) kicked. To have five turnovers and however many penalties we had and still have a chance to win the game at the end? It shows we can be a darned good team if we get our head out of our butt.
Chad didn't throw the ball well last week, and he really didn't throw it good today.
But to have five turnovers and how many ever penalties we had and, really, have a chance to win the game at the end ... it shows we can be a darn good team if we get our head out of our butt and play better.
I'm good now, ... I'm back among the living.
I've seen games that are stupid and dumb and sloppy a lot of penalties and you get your (butt) kicked,
We didn't make the playoffs. We definitely did a better job this year, but we still didn't make the playoffs.
Don't get me wrong, we haven't proven anything yet. We won a game, big deal.
You do one early in the year and everyone's going to do it to you until you put the fire out. It's my responsibility to put the fire out, not only for myself but everybody else. Maybe if I stop committing penalties, than everybody else will stop.
