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.
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.
ball efficiency hear passing pocket prove question throw trying
They say I can't throw the ball from the pocket and my passing efficiency isn't that good, so I had to show everybody. It's not trying to prove to the world, because I know what I can do and the Falcons know what I can do. From here on out, I don't want to hear that question again.
attempts ball easier game good hurting maybe passing pressure run takes throw
I don't know if I can, ... Maybe not, man. My passing attempts are not where they need to be. I need to throw the ball 30 to 40 times a game for me to have those numbers, but our run game's so good that I won't say it's hurting me, but I won't complain, because it's a lot easier and it takes a lot of pressure off me, too.
fact goal passing praise respect running sick wants
I'm kind of sick of the fact that everyone wants to praise me in the running game. My goal is try to make them respect me in the passing game, too.
ball three turned
We turned the ball over three times, ... You can't do that in this league.
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.
plays
It was about making plays when we had to,
change changed instrument
I stand before you a changed man. Use me as an example of an instrument of change.
bad blow catch coming defending team teams worst
The worst thing you can do is catch a team coming off a bad performance, ... Those are the teams that are the most dangerous. They will blow you out. You have to look at it like this: They are the defending world champions.
doctors precaution took
The way I feel and from what the doctors tell me, I don't feel like it's serious. We just took the precaution to come out.
people
People can say what they want to say,
coaching great
We are going to get it on, ... Two great coaching staffs, two great quarterbacks, two great teams. That's the way it should be.
cheer fans
I wanted to give the fans something to cheer about. Just wanted to get the jitters out, and I didn't want to shortchange the fans or myself.
