effortless far run throw unique
Everything is so effortless for him, ... It doesn't look like he's running. I can throw it as far as I can and he catches up to it with no problem. He's a unique guy. He can run unique routes. Every day, I see something that's new and different, and it's something that I like.
safe situation stay throw warrants
I still want to stay aggressive. I want to try to get everything I can, but at the same time, if the situation warrants that I throw it in there, I'm fine. But if not, I want to be safe with the ball.
hands obviously throw wish
Obviously at halftime, you don't throw up your hands and say that's it. But it was a big play and one I wish I had back.
england funny randy throw throwing worry
I find that very funny because when I throw to him too much, like I did in the New England game, it's 'Oh, you're throwing to Randy too much,' ... And then when I don't throw to him enough: 'Well, you're not throwing to Randy enough.' ... In my mind, I can't win that battle, so I'm not going to worry about it.
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.
blink came happy kept throw
We didn't blink and just kept playing. It was one of those where you throw it and go, 'Oh ....' Those things are going to happen, and I was happy how I came back.
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.
coming high primary receiver throw took trying
They were in a blitz, Zack (Crockett) was the primary receiver coming out of the backfield, but he got bounced around, so I took off (running) outside. I really was just trying to throw it away, but I just didn't get it high enough. That one was on me.
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.
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.
guys
We showed a lot of heart. We showed a lot of character, ... We should have won. But I don't think our guys are going to go in the tank.
encouraged
We showed a lot of heart, ... We showed a lot of character. I'm encouraged by what I've seen.
ball creative expect people roll ways
We expect (double coverage) every game. People are going to do it, roll (coverage) to him and stuff. But we're creative enough where we can find ways to get him the ball down the field.
believe definitely kinds learned newspapers opinions
I've definitely learned that you never believe everything that you read in the newspapers or see on TV, ... I mean, you've got to make your own kinds of opinions in this business.
