consistent defense felt game good great knew line offense offensive passing points running special time training win
We knew we had something special in training camp, just the way our defense was running around, and we had such a good offensive line. Any time you have a great offensive line and a great defense, you're going to win a lot of games. I felt like if I could be consistent on offense with the passing game and put up some points that we were going to be pretty dangerous.
five four hurt knew months running start took
It was tough, but when I got hurt, I knew it was going to be a long process. It took about four or five months to start running. Once I started running I didn't feel like I was rehabbing as much as just working out.
caught denial heard knew leg sat situations start tried twisted walk
I knew right away and I was kind of in denial to start with. I tried to walk it off but I heard a pop. I got caught in one of those situations where someone kind of twisted me and sat on my leg and you know, what are you going to do?
denial heard knew start tried trying walk
I knew right away and I was kind of in denial to start with. But I knew. I heard a pop. I tried to make it work. I was trying to walk it off. I knew right away.
denial knew start
I knew right away, and I was kind of in denial to start with,
ball bigger moved plays run
We started to run the ball pretty well and moved the ball pretty decently. We had some plays we could have made for a bigger first quarter, but we're still working. It's still early.
drive figure great played
What can I say? The Panthers played a great game, (and) it's just going to drive me to figure out how to be a better quarterback.
mixed saw tape
We mixed it up a little bit. We saw a lot of tape where we could do some things down the field.
game practiced ready
We all didn't play the game that we practiced and got ready for. What can I say?
defense great guy offense perfect runs terrific
With a guy like Moose, you don't have to make a perfect throw. He runs great routes, he's got terrific hands, and he's a guy the opposing defense has to respect. He just makes our whole offense better.
extremely hurt mad
Obviously, we're extremely mad and hurt and (ticked) off.
people played realize since slot
Since he hasn't played a ton, people don't really realize his speed. When you put him in the slot and get him on a safety, it's a mismatch every time.
ball bit catch game great pick talked worry
Like I said after the game, he's going to catch the ball 99 out of 100 times. He'll pick his game up. He talked to me a little bit after the game and apologized and I just said, 'Don't worry about it, you're a great receiver.' I know he's going to make the play.
field loosen plan run start stretch
The plan was to get them off us a little bit. We wanted to stretch the field a little bit, loosen them up, and then start getting the run going.
