add cost
We'll investigate them all. We do every year. Most years we say the cost is not going to add up to what we're going to get, but you never know.
games cost knows
And one game, as we know, can cost you a lot.
guys
We used our quickness, ... I think that let our guys know that was going to be our edge.
blocked blocking call corey familiar good job larry last learn offensive rushing schemes sunday
You have to learn offensive blocking schemes and especially when rushing the passer you get blocked differently, ... Larry had to call some (assignments) for us on Sunday with Corey not as familiar with what we're doing. Montae has always done that the last two years. Larry did a good job of getting us into some of the right things.
september week win
You don't win championships in September or October. You don't win them in week eight. You don't win them with one game.
against beat coming cut deal everybody game hopefully houston landmark playing point practice recognize second short team tough week win work
You don't win championships in September, obviously. You don't win them in Week 8. You don't win them with one game. This is going to be a tough deal for us to come back. Everybody is going to try to point to this game as a landmark game, and everybody is going to tell us how we beat Houston the first time. Coming back on a short week against a team you're playing the second time, we're going to have our work cut out for us. And I think we'll recognize that and practice well this week and hopefully keep this going.
advantage allowed beat denver jump last playoffs start toward
Even last year, when we were 12-4, we didn't get the bye week, and we had to beat Denver in the playoffs before we ever got to New England, ... That was a disadvantage for us, and an advantage for them. This start we've had has allowed us to get a jump toward getting that first-round bye, which is a real goal.
knew responding saw soon
As soon as I saw it I smiled, because I knew that's what he was responding to.
early
We need to get him in some early downs.
admire list nobody people realize
You can look at the list of people who are on there, and there is nobody who you don't really admire or realize that,
ahead including played saying schedule teams winning work
We've played Jacksonville and St. Louis, who have some wins, but for the most part, we haven't played teams with winning records, ... I look at the schedule ahead and everyone, including me, is saying we've got a lot of work ahead of us.
camp finishing nice thinking training ultimate
Finishing 16-0 would be a nice footnote and we're going to try to do it. But it's not the ultimate goal. We didn't go into training camp thinking of an unbeaten season.
field game good inside position several
Field position was very important in that game and punting them back up inside the 10 several times was critical. It was good to see that rewarded.
eight last reasons sat saying stay sure talked win
We've really not talked about it. I think that's one of the reasons we've been able to stay loose. We've really not sat here saying for the last eight weeks, 'Wouldn't it be great.' I'm sure if we win this one and get 14, I'm sure it will be talked about a little more.
