best feet game good happens laugh pressure trying whatever
I just want to get my feet wet, ... Whatever happens is going to happen. That's how I look at it. I want to go out there and play the smartest, best game I can play. I'm trying not to put too much pressure on myself. I want to make sure I'm still able to laugh at myself if I do something good or something bad.
abruptly ahead focal guys hard leader nice opportunity people point pressure type
It's hard being a leader for so long, being a focal point for so long, and then it kind of abruptly stops. It's nice to be back in the mix. It's also nice not to have 'THE PLAYER' pressure on me anymore. It's on other guys this year. It's going to give me an opportunity to go ahead and play and let the other people have that type of attention.
abruptly focal guys hard leader nice opportunity people point possibly pressure
It's hard being a leader for so long and being a focal point for so long, ... and then it kind of abruptly stops. It's nice to be back in the mix, and it's also nice not to have 'The Player' pressure on me anymore. It's on other guys this year, so it's going to give me an opportunity possibly to just go out here and play and let the other people have that kind of attention.
heat love
I love everything about being in Washington. I know I've said some things that I probably shouldn't have said out of the heat of the moment. I have regrets, but I love being a Redskin.
bit guys looking maybe
I'm motivated. You guys are going to get what you're looking for - maybe a little bit more.
figure letting trying
I'm just trying to figure out where we go from here. This one's got me confused. We're just letting them get away, the same way, over and over again.
anyone bad besides capable continue given playing redskins rid
It's not a given that I'll continue playing if the Redskins get rid of me. I don't really want to play for anyone else. I don't feel bad about it. I've had my time. I'm capable of doing other things besides football.
continue given playing redskins rid
It's not a given that I'll continue playing if the Redskins get rid of me.
fans heat love regrets
I love it here. I love the fans here. I love everything about being in Washington. I know I said some things I probably shouldn't have said, out of the heat of the moment. I have regrets for that. I love being a Redskin through and through.
anybody glad happy
I'm just happy it's over. I'm glad we got it resolved. I don't want to play for anybody else.
catch chest head running watching
I'm watching film and I'm running with my chest up, my head back. ... That's not how you run and catch somebody.
creates crowd defense loud
It was loud on the field. That always creates opportunities for a defense when the crowd is loud like that.
bad fairly happened hurt opportunity sitting special
It was one of those things that happened, and it happened the way it happened, and you can't go back on it, ... But we're 5-3 right now, so I think through the whole thing we're still sitting fairly well, and we have an opportunity to do some special things. So it didn't hurt us too bad if it was a distraction, hopefully.
brought leave might omen start whatever
That might be an omen that I need to leave whatever I brought from there and just start completely over.
