That was our main goal. We know we are a nasty defense. We know we are a good defense. But last year we didn't have enough takeaways. That's a focus for us this year, getting the ball.

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.
both chemistry good guys help matter perception situation
T.O.'s my friend. Donovan's my friend. They're both good guys, no matter what perception is out there, and when you see two good guys and the chemistry is off you try to help the situation out.
extra good guy knows leaders respect takes team values
He's a guy that he'll respect you if you show respect. That's kind of the way I am. I think he values good leadership; that's important to him. He knows he can only do so much as a coach, that it takes good leaders on the team to go that extra mile.

We believe we're a better football team and we didn't show it, not even close.

We're going to miss coming in here and hearing Hugh laughing and cracking jokes. He was a great player for us and a great person for us. So, this really hurts. We understand it's a business and these things happen all the time. But it still hurts.
against gave happy played turned
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.

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