clear crisis few growing guys knew victory
I feel like we're growing as a team. I feel like we've got guys who didn't panic, who didn't go into crisis mode. We just knew we had to clear a few things up and we'd get a victory this weekend, and we did it.
best bugged decided feelings felt guy known position
What bugged me is that they decided that someone would be better at the position than me. I didn't feel that way at the time. ... I made my feelings known then. Shoot, I went through a lot with that organization. I felt like I was still the best guy for the job.

Obviously, this game holds special meaning for me. I had five good years there and I'm very appreciative of everything that they did for me when I was there.

It seems like they have more leadership over there. They have some veteran guys who have played in this league and know what it takes to be on a good defense.

It's a testament to the organization and to Mr. Davis that they're willing to go out and do those kind of things and get guys like Randy in here, re-sign Jerry, getting LaMont.

It was really a great time for both of our careers,

basically defense last middle putting quarter throwing
They were throwing basically every play from the middle of the first quarter (on). (The Chiefs) have upgraded their defense a lot. All I know is putting on that film, they are a lot better than they were last year.

It's been tough around here, ... but we kept our belief.
