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.
gave rolling
We can get this thing rolling again. We just gave up too many plays.
added best corey defense depth everybody lose nature played players since step time
Any time you lose players like that there is some concern, but everybody has to step up, ... But I think this is the best our defense has played since I've been here. We would have added more depth with Corey and Hugh, but that's the nature of the business. You can't keep everybody, but we could have used them.
anytime felt missed
Anytime you lose, it's a missed opportunity. The whole game, I felt we were going to win. You never want to say it's in the bank, but....
both close defense everybody fans good offensive played teams wants
The fans and everybody wants to see big offensive plays. But it was kind of good the defenses on both teams played well. To go out there and close it out on defense for the NFC was big for us.
against anybody bring love playing running welcome
I love playing against running teams. There's just more opportunities for me to make plays, you know? For us to make plays, as a defense. We welcome all challengers. Anybody want to bring it, we're ready.
best defense excited guys talent teammates
I know my teammates were excited to get me back out there. I tell the guys every day, 'We're the best defense in the league.' That's what you have to believe. With the talent we have on this defense, why not?
bad million season
I'm very shocked. I never would have thought in a million years that the season would go as bad as it has. It's just been one thing after another.
amount bad coming felt high last million played season talent
I'm very shocked. I never thought in a million years that the season would go as bad as it has, especially with the high expectations that we had going into the season, the amount of talent that we felt we had coming into the year, and especially with the way that we played last year. It's been a shock. It's just been one thing after another.
happens planned
I never planned for it to escalate like that, ... happens every other play.
brings carry few last load took
I like the way he runs. I like what he brings to the table. Last year, when he first went in there, he took a pounding. He took a beating. He pretty much had to carry the load because they had a quarterback situation. This year, he put on a few more pounds, which he really had to, especially in that offense. He's done an outstanding job.
Hey, you've got your own pilot. I don't have my own pilot.

He threw a punch and I tried to block it. I got the facemask and they must have thought it was a punch. We were just trash talking. I don't think anyone should have been ejected.
