penalties players point responsibility seems variety
It's been a variety of things. Certainly, I take as much responsibility as anybody. It seems like it's been different things at different times, where the players get penalties or non-execution. Like I said, I'm not going to point fingers. I know that I didn't live up to the expectations I had for myself this season.
behind defense eight front line mixed played seemed third type
They mixed up their front line a lot. We got behind the eight ball, especially in the third quarter. It seemed like we played into their hands, but that's the type of defense they play, and they played it tonight.
certainly guys people putting three trying
They had some people on him. I was certainly trying to go his way. They were putting two or three guys on him.
ball good job mix parts rid rushing sound throw
They do a good job rushing the passer, ... It's one of the least talked-about parts of their defense. They mix fronts and give you a sound rush ... I wanted to get rid of the ball (on the interception), throw it away, but I got hit.
against awesome best front full guys hands hurt kinds learn mistakes next penalties team
There was pressure, no doubt. The guys up front had their hands full and they did the best they could. The Patriots have an awesome defense. What hurt was all the penalties we had. You can't have those kinds of penalties or turnovers against a team like that. But hopefully, we can learn from our mistakes and straighten things out next week.
against dropped good half hurt mistakes passes penalties team whether
They're a good team and you can't make mistakes against them, whether it's dropped passes or interceptions before the half or penalties that hurt us.
both great time
It was really a great time for both of our careers,
bridge came far gone good moved moving shifted thoughts
We've all got to be good at moving on in this business. I've moved on. Sure, I was disappointed with the way things went. But I came out here and shifted my thoughts and concentrated on doing well out here. That's all gone under the bridge as far as I'm concerned.
downs happens ups
We started out like gangbusters. We were really clicking, but as what happens in every game, there are ups and downs and ebbs and flows.

last less smart thrown time year
I know I'm not going to go the whole year without one but at the same time it just comes down to being smart with the ball, ... I think I'm doing that better than I did last year and I think that's why I've thrown less interceptions.
against bunch call handle key kinds winning
Call it lucky, call it fortunate, call it what you will. We've had a bunch of them go against us. We were able to handle those kinds of things, and I think that was a big key to winning the game.
against deal finish giants playing positive tonight tried
I don't think my mind-set was any different tonight than for any other game. I really tried to finish this on a positive note. Obviously, playing against the Giants was a pretty big deal for me.
ball beat goal knew rid throw
I didn't see him. I was just about to get rid of the ball and throw it away, and I got hit. My goal was not to have any turnovers . . . because I knew that's what it would take to beat these guys. It was a disappointing play.
