atlanta beat bit both critical focus games great looking obviously ourselves playing road sides situation step week win work worry york
We are very critical of ourselves and of how we play and what we do as Atlanta Falcons, ... We know that we have some work to do on both sides of the ball, and that's what we are looking for from our team: improvement. It would be a great situation to be in, 5-2 and 1-0 in the division. It's a great step for us, and obviously as we come back we have to win games and step our own game up a little bit as we get into playing more divisional opponents. We have to really focus in and beat New York this week and worry about what is down the road a little bit later.
fancy game run spy stop
We don't see too much of a spy look anymore, ... because of our run game and because of some of the things that we do. We see more straight-up coverage. ... They try to stop me that way and not be fancy with it.
chance cold excuse game prepared win year
That's tough. We weren't prepared for that. We didn't play a game all year in the cold weather. Its not an excuse. We still had a chance to win the game. But it was tough.
attempts believe exactly game hope needs passing per reason talent type yards
I think Greg Knapp needs to know that. He needs to know exactly what type of talent he's working with. ... You've got to be creative. There's no reason I should be passing for only 2,300 yards for the season. My passing attempts per game (24.2) are not even that high. I hope it's not that they don't believe in me, because I believe in me.
against best came confidence games happened injured injury level mean scare
Just because I got injured doesn't mean that my confidence level is going to go down, ... The same thing happened to me against Seattle, and I came back and had one of my best games against Buffalo. Injury doesn't scare me.
football game needed offense playing points whether win
We just didn't play championship-type football when we needed to. At some points we did, at some points we didn't, whether it's on offense or defense. Playing like that, we wouldn't even win a game in the playoffs. We've just got to re-evaluate a lot of things around here.
ask chance game last ourselves position similar week win
I wouldn't say that the game last week was similar to the one in Carolina. That was pretty much a blowout, if you ask me. Last week, we had a better chance to win. We put ourselves in a position where we could win and we didn't come through in those situations.
communication game guys intact offense passing run totally
The passing game will be totally different, ... We have guys that can make some plays. We have guys that can run now. I think we're more intact with what we are doing as an offense and as a whole. The communication and camaraderie is there. We are ready.
add chains clock football games great opportunity running third win
We had a great day on third down. Third down is how you win football games in this league. You keep the chains moving, you keep the clock running and you give yourself another opportunity to add some points.
came game mean played team watch watched year
There hasn't been a game this year where we came out and everything we watched on film, the team came out and played what they showed, ... We always get the different looks. I don't even know why we watch film anymore. I mean for real, man.
football game goes guy job man win
When one guy goes down, we can't get the job done? That's why we've got backups, ... We're a team. One man can't win a football game by himself. I can't win a game by myself.
advantage bit game happy learned left
We left the game with a bit of confidence. We weren't happy we lost; nobody's ever happy when they lose, but we learned that you have to take advantage of those opportunities when they come up.
calm composure football game hard prove pushing understand winning
It's kind of hard to calm yourself down. But, you know, you have got to keep your composure in a game like this and understand the big picture. And that is just winning the football game. It's not about pushing and shoving and getting 15-yard penalties, because that doesn't prove anything.
chance cold game prepared win year
It was minus-10 degrees. That's tough. We weren't prepared for that. We didn't play a game all year in the cold weather. I'm not making any excuses. We still had a chance to win the game. But it was tough.
