When you go through a situation like I was in in Washington, it makes you appreciate a coach who's strict on discipline.

When the whistle blows, it's hit and tackle. ... Are you going to put a knot on somebody?
aware barry closest run seen stopping
For what he does for that team, I don't see another one out there that's better. He's the closest thing I've seen to Barry Sanders. He's just that good. He does everything. We've got to always be aware of where he's at - at all times. You've got to concentrate on stopping the run first and go from there.
dangerous guy played player within
I always said -- even when I played there -- if we could ever get this guy to play within the scheme, study, and be a professional, he probably could be the most dangerous player in the league.

We're happy with the way things turned out. I thought we could have played better against the run. I thought we gave them 30 more yards, but they're a professional team, so they're going to get some plays.

Our plan on defense is to pressure the quarterback and (Howard) can do that. It'll definitely help the secondary and the linebackers.

I thought we could have played better against the run. I thought we gave them at least about 30 yards. I was just excited to get back out there, see my teammates flying around and trying to contribute.
defense good job last played running stop week
I thought the defense played good last week; it was just the running game. I feel like we can stop the run week in and week out. We did a pretty good job of it today.
gave rolling
We can get this thing rolling again. We just gave up too many plays.

(Mathis) threw a punch and I tried to block it. We were just trash talking. I don't think anyone should have been ejected.

I wish it wasn't over and that we were playing today to go into the playoffs. But the way it was going, at some point, you stop the bleeding.
hope knee prayers talking trash wish
Trash talking is trash talking, but my prayers go out to him and his family. I've been through two knee surgeries and I wouldn't wish that on anybody. I really hope he has a speedy recovery.
