Everyone knows his name now, but no one knows the blockers,
Everyone knew who David Pollack was, David Greene was. National-name guys. I don't know if we have a headliner on our team. We have a bunch of guys who are playing real hard, and together we've done a nice job.
They bought a lot of time on that play. They allowed the quarterback to see it really well, stop and set his feet and make a really pretty throw.
They both weren't a good option, I didn't think.
It was his first start in a hostile environment, and he did pretty darned good.
It was just a great field position game, a great defensive battle. We had to stay patient, as much as we hated it, and let our special teams do their job -- then knock it in when we needed to.
A team that can put pressure on the quarterback without blitzing I'm more worried about than a team that blitzes. Blitzing teams are vulnerable to the big play.
about as pretty as I've seen. Maybe we should do that more often.
It's been talked about a lot, probably more than most (openers) for us, and that's because we're playing a great team. It's a team that wins almost every time they play.
It's just different from anybody we've seen. Thankfully, we've had time to practice and prepare for it.
It's a big game for us, I can promise you. They have done a wonderful job of stopping the running game and that's our strength going into this season.
I try not to be too hard on him. We have a good time when we get together.
It wasn't quite the way we designed it with Joe stumbling, ... That's not the way it was supposed to go. I'm sure people would have been talking about that play for years if we'd won.
It really wasn't bad at all, ... They actually cheered me up a little bit.
