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.
against excited flying gave played teammates trying
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.
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.
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.

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.

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.
cry hard helped officials played saying tried
I?m not saying it would be different. But I know I could have helped out. I tried to tell the officials what happened, but it didn?t help. We still played hard and we had our chances. We can?t cry over spilled milk.

We just wanted to keep fighting. Thank God I was in the right place at the right time. The ball went so high in the air I was able to get to it.

We understand that a lot of things happened this year. We didn't play nearly up to our capabilities even when we had everybody healthy. But a lot of factors went into the way our team went this year.
division game imperative lost next tale three washington weeks
These next three weeks are going to tell the tale of this team. It's imperative that we go down there to Washington and get this win. We lost our first game in the division to the Cowboys, so this is a must-win. A must, must-win.
blow coming high
Our expectations were so high coming in, and, just the way everything went down, it was a big blow to us.
