He was huge. The guy takes up a lot of gaps and does a great job of getting push. He does a great job of plugging.
I am sure by the time the game starts later in the week it will be a packed crowd. You have to start winning and get an identity, like Coach Saban says. Once you start doing that, you'll fill that stadium up and it won't be a problem.
I feel good that we are on this run. We should have got on this run earlier and that's why we are not going to the playoffs, but it is good to win.
He has showed he's committed to the team, and he's a good guy. He doesn't want it to be about him. He wants it to be about the team.
He bounced back today. You've got to give him credit. He hit the plays when they needed it and we were just inconsistent.
I know that we are going to be a lot better when the Jets come down and play us and they will be too, but hopefully we get even better than them.
I promise that once we get clicking on defense we are going to be real good. We were off today and we weren't very good.
I'm just proud of the guys, because when we were 3-7, we could have shut it down. And guys kept fighting.
I guess you could say things have gone our way.
The man has a plan. He knows exactly what he's doing. He has total confidence in his ability to make the right moves.
