When I saw the date of the game, it was a little like, 'Whoa,' ... It kind of took you back. We'll go out here and hopefully give everybody in the city of New York and across the country something to be happy about and turn it into a celebration.
When I went back out there he tried to say he was sorry. I haven't watched it, but everybody else that has seen it tells me that it looked like his fingers were spread and he had a straight poke at it. So, I don't know.
I've always been the locker-room jokester, the fun guy, the guy who keeps it loose and easy. But also, on Sundays, the guy in that huddle jumping up and down, telling guys, 'Hey, get it going. Let's go.' Firing everybody up. So I'm part relaxation therapist and part Red Bull.
You can be disappointed you didn't wrap it up, which I am sure we are. At the same time, it would be even more disappointing if we didn't have another chance. We have another chance. We're disappointed. We're upset. Everybody is mad. But it's not over.
Before the fourth-down play I told everybody not to let them sneak it in.
Compared to the other teams, it definitely seems like a younger team to me. But I think that everybody here has the same motivation, the same desire to go out there and win these games and put us in the Super Bowl. That is everybody's goal. There is no doubt in anybody's mind that we can do that as long as we play the way we are capable of playing.
It's not over. We're disappointed, everybody is mad, but it's not over.
We've just got to make plays. Keep the ball out of their hands, make the tackles, all the other stuff. We didn't do it.
There have been three guys I've been around who, personality-wise, have been the most inspirational,
When I saw Toomer catch it and there were no flags, it was the most excited I've been around here in a long time.
We're our own worst enemy. You doubt yourself more than anybody else ever will. If you can get past that, you can be successful.
This time of year, you really have to be able to stop the run. So it's going to be key for us to get back to where we were.
This team is one of those teams that you are going to have to stay until the end of the game to see exactly what happens.
To be honest, that's the last body part I'm concerned about because it doesn't bother me in the least. There's no residual effect at all. Look, I'm here to play and if I go out there and something else gets hurt, that's part of football.
