definitely everybody good helping knows offense order stretch
Everybody knows in order to have a good offense you have to stretch the field. Now we have Plax, and he'll definitely be helping us in that aspect.
content good guard happened last next opponent punch strong year
If we get off to a strong start, we can be as good as anybody. Last year we started strong and it went downhill. When everything's going right, we can't be content and let our guard down. We can't let that next opponent punch us first, like what happened last year.
crowd good
It's good to see that Eli didn't let the crowd get to him,
behind giants good great group guys team traded
It's great to have this behind me and to know that I'm going to be with the Giants and with this group of guys for a long time. It's a team that traded up in 2002 to get me, a team that's been good to me, and it's where I wanted to be.
good heard love met
I told him right when I met him, 'Whatever you heard about me, I really love to play the game,' ... I really wanted to make a good impression.
couple giving good great half lose losing players playing start system talent teams three
There's a lot of talent here. We can be as good as we want. If we ever lose a game, it's us losing it. We're giving it away because we have great players on offense. There should be teams that come up with turnovers and things like that, but there should be no team that shuts us out for three and a half quarters. . . . Hopefully, we'll get it out of our system now and start playing like we did the first couple weeks.
arm blessing page step time watch
(The time off) was probably a blessing in disguise. He got his arm rested. He got to step back and watch like he did his first year. So it's not like he was out of it completely. He's on the same page with us.
complacent games played
We played pretty well the first two games and got a little complacent and thought we were better than we were.
fun last year
We have a lot to prove. Last year was no fun for anybody.
coming confidence gives knowing leader team
Having the leader of the team in Eli, him being around, knowing everything, knowing everybody's assignments, it gives everyone a lot more confidence. We all have confidence coming in with Eli, Plax and Tiki, those guys. We can build, not necessarily on what we did in the past, but what we can do now.
breakout close confident game gets start time
Give him time and he'll do great. He gets more confident with every start and he'll get better every game he plays. He's really close to having a great, breakout game.
ball blocking drafted harder lead personnel staff tight works
I didn't get drafted to be a blocking tight end or a fullback to lead up in the linebackers, ... No one works harder than this staff to get their personnel the ball. I know they are going to try and get me the ball this year.
against bad caught feelings forgiveness hard
No hard feelings from our side. It's important not to get caught up in bad feelings. We don't have anything against those guys.
felt
No one felt like we were out of the game.
