ball couple creating defense last played spread throw
The last couple of years we've had to spread it out and throw the ball and try and (to) outscore opponents. But the way our defense played today, creating turnovers, I'll take that anytime.
home last success tough
We know it's going to be a tough game. They've had a lot of success in home openers over the last decade, and we know we're going to get their best.
ball behind biggest early effective fall five four heels last mix run running
Our biggest thing is we can't fall behind early like we did. We can't become predictable on offense. Where we have had effectiveness over the last four or five years is when we can mix up the run and the pass. When we are effective running the ball then we can get our play-action going. We can get our drop-back going. We keep defenses on their heels and keep them off-balance because they don't know where we're coming.
bit dad escape family good hopefully last normalcy provide week
I think it's important to play. No. 1, that's what my dad would want me to do, just like last week he would have wanted me to play. It would be good for my family to try to get back to some normalcy and hopefully provide a little bit of escape while the game's going on for all of them.

Not that I ever relaxed, but it was nice to know he wasn't going to be breathing down my back side.

It's crazy. I've never been involved with anything like this. You hear of one guy going down, or at the most, two. But to have three guys. Here it was a week ago and Quinn was on his couch. Now he's starting this week. It's a weird set of circumstances.
against anytime credit defense game good johnson knowing larry line obviously offensive oriented run running type
Anytime you're in a game like this and you know it's going to be a grind-it-out, run oriented game, knowing the type of defense that they have and how good they are against the run, obviously give a lot of credit to the offensive line and running back Larry Johnson for that.
changes lose pro time
Any time you lose a 10-time Pro Bowler, it changes things a little bit.
accustomed defense pace playing
It was a different kind of pace for this offense, ... With the defense playing the way that it was and with a big lead, it was more of a grind-it-out attitude. That's not something we're accustomed to.
happy job positive team took
We weren't really happy about it. But we did our job. We focused, and we have to be happy about that. The team took a positive approach.
far four losing meet step
As far as losing four in a row, I feel like we're a much different team. I think we have 15 new guys. We have a much different defense, a much-improved defense. We just have to find a way to step up and find a way to meet this challenge.
both game great marquee pride run terms test
That's going to be a great test for both sides, ... We take a lot of pride in our run game and they take a lot of pride in their run defense. So that's going to be kind of a marquee matchup in terms of how this game goes.
both great test
That's going to be a great test for both sides,
