We have to get the ball in the end zone. It's tough to win kicking field goals.
Yeah, I think, yeah, in New York it was really a chance to showcase what I could still do and try to present myself with an opportunity like here in Arizona, ... It's where I can play the game the way I wanted to and hopefully write my own story.
We had it set up. We just didn't make it happen. We have to be more consistent.
With the talent I've been around, and I've been around a lot of talent, this team matches up very favorably with the talent that I've been around.
We needed to get back to the mistake-free, care-free, fun-loving football that we're used to playing, ... This has got to give us a lot of confidence.
You know, ... I'm pretty sure I'm going to be an Arizona Cardinal.
We haven't hit on all cylinders just yet and we want to try to get that accomplished and at least be going into the regular season with the confidence that I think this team should have.

I really don't. The thing is, of course, the way it ended wasn't how I dreamed it up. It was disappointing to me. But how do you have any animosity to an organization that gave me the opportunities that they gave me, that allowed me to fulfill a dream when no one else would?
In the two games we've played, there have been a lot of things that were good,
I'm fighting that battle not to have that go through my mind, ... Right now it's just working, rehabbing and getting ready, getting to 100 percent, doing what I do, and letting all the chips fall where they may.
