Both his guys made it to the Pro Bowl. I don't know what else you can ask of a coach.
Credit to our defense. Any time as an offense you struggle, you've got to have your defense play solid and stop them. Our defense definitely did that. I'm proud of them. They took a good step toward the right direction in being able to stop people when they need to.
I think he's waited patiently for his opportunity, and he's taken advantage of it. He's a first-round pick (in 2003), so everybody knew he had a lot of talent. I think it was just a point of him getting on the field and proving himself.
Everybody around the league looks up to their organization, ... Just the things they have been able to do, especially in a time when free agency is critical and things change. They've proved it can be done.
We're motivated just on the schedule we have: having a tough schedule and wanting to prove to people that no matter if we have a tough schedule or not, we're a good football team, and we're going to win games. I share the record with Lenny now, and I'm not a greedy person. If we can win the game and I don't get a touchdown, I'll be fine with that.
I say if we don't win this season, they should be upset. But give us a chance to prove that we are winners.
He has played well. Kirk is a product of hard work. He knows what that is all about; working hard to get on the football field.
The kind of person Drew is, I don't think there will be a problem. Drew is a very hard worker, and he's the type of person that can handle this injury and look it right in the face and come back from it and not have a problem with it.
We just got outplayed. They made great adjustments and we didn't do very well adjusting ourselves.

We saw that they were stacking the box to stop the fullback, ... We saw that no one was going out on me when we run the sweep. We decided to pitch it out there and it was wide open.
I've said it before, but I guess nobody really took notice before. It's just a goal that I have.
It would be great. It's something you always dream about. You dream that it would be something you would accomplish when you grow up.
The ribs are no big deal. I hurt it on my right side, hurt it when I fell on somebody. The rib pad was bothering me more than the rib itself.
