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.

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.

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.
