guy meant speak
Look at a guy like Sam. He didn't speak all the time, but when he spoke, it meant something.
downs last plays third year
They just killed us on third downs. That's what we've been stressing all off-season is third down. That's what killed us last year and it killed us again. We've got to make plays on third downs and we're not doing it.
catch close closer point
I had to catch him, ... I had to. At one point I thought I wasn't going to and then I got close and I started getting closer and I thought, I got a chance.
began definitely life man situation time
Any time you give that man (Favre) life he will make plays. You definitely don't want to be in that situation with Brett Favre. ... Once he got back into his rhythm, Brett Favre began to be Brett Favre.
coming doubt early football guys knew looks people season smiling talented team type
There's no doubt about it. We knew that coming into the year. This is the most talented football team I've been around. I know what a championship team looks like. I told the guys early in the season we can be that type of team. We don't have to play people close. If we play like we're capable, we'll be smiling at the end of every game.

That's just disrespectful. We ain't trying to disrespect people. You go do your little antics. That's all good, as long as it doesn't cross the line of disrespect.
against heart says year
What it says is we have a heart of a champion, man. To do this on the road, against that Rams team. We showed again we will not quit. We're going to fight. We've been doing it all year long, and we will not stop.
easier home win
It's the first game, a home game, the Saints. You've got to win that one and we didn't do that. It's not going to get any easier as we go on.
fit
It wasn't scripted, but it kind of fit the plan.
absolutely april guy locker room surprise weight
Does it surprise me that he still makes plays? Absolutely not, because I see what he does in the weight room in March, April and May. The guy is an inspiration to everyone in this locker room.
played stayed themselves within
They stayed within themselves and they played well,
