This guy, Will Allen, struggled catching the ball coming in here,
programmed ride
This guy's wired. This guy's infrastructure is one that allows him to play a lot. That's how he's programmed and we're going to ride him as long as we can.
clearly difference great player prime
I think the only difference between Culpepper and Donovan McNabb is that Culpepper is like Shaquille O'Neal back there. He's really big. This guy's a freak. He's a great player clearly in the prime of his career.
dimension gives good help
I thought he did some good things. He will help our team. He gives us a dimension that we need here.
ball score throwing trying
I thought about throwing the ball and trying to score a touchdown and then going for two with him over there,
football front good great statement today
It is good to know, as a football player, if we get the ball back to our quarterback he can do something with it. He made a great statement today in front of a lot of people.
game intensity lack physical played
Lack of intensity didn't have anything to do with it. The Patriots played a much more physical game than we did.

added careless couple deserve errors good great guys half handled minnesota noise nose offensive second tackle
I thought those guys battled. They did some good things. Minnesota has a very good front. They've added a great nose tackle (Pat Williams) from Buffalo. ... I thought (our offensive line) handled the noise at times pretty good. I thought we had some careless errors - a couple of penalties, particularly in the second half - but those guys deserve a lot of credit.

beaten consistent dark darn fairly football forward game good horses jump looking onto running seeing talented teams throughout year
I think we have beaten some pretty darn good football teams and have been fairly consistent throughout the year. We've got a talented defense. We have a good running game and we are looking forward to seeing what we can do. Every year there are dark horses that jump onto the scene.
won
Jiminy Christmas, 1989 is as long time, ... That's what we're up against. We haven't won there in forever. I don't even know where I was in 1989.
anybody believe bowl dark horses jump onto super win year
I think every year there are dark horses that jump onto the scene. It's just facts. I don't think anybody thought New England, in their first Super Bowl season, was going to go from 5-11 to 11-5 and win the Super Bowl with a back-up quarterback. I don't believe anybody thought we were going to do it either. That's just this game.
