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.
Obviously, things are worst in the first 24 hours. It's a little sore right now, but hopefully it's not extremely serious.
I think it is going to be sooner rather than later, so I'm very optimistic about it. Maybe not as optimistic as to hope I could be out there on Sunday, but optimistic that it'll happen soon.

We just made some mistakes. We killed ourselves. It wasn't physical. It was mental. That's the frustrating part. You know physically you match up pretty well with them.
We just gave up too many big, key plays, and it turned on us really quickly, and we weren't able to dig ourselves out of the hole.
I've been here a lot of times when I had everybody in here cheering for me and I don't know if I fed off it, but I definitely know I was focused and feeling good.
I've been in a lot of places where I haven't had offensive lines that can just manhandle guys one-on-one, ... but if you get on the right guy, you pick up the right guy, you give your skill players a chance to make a play, and that's where you're successful.
Everybody expects me to be that quarterback, too,
We had it set up. We just didn't make it happen. We have to be more consistent.
That's what every quarterback wants, ... Just go out and play and not have to look over your shoulder.
I still think we have a lot of work to do, but guys are getting more comfortable and coming into their own. We have a lot of guys mixing in and out of the offensive line. You're talking basically the fourth center we've had in four games.
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.
