It means a lot. It means I'm accountable.

We finally got a quarterback that didn't throw it away. We got to him. That's what we've been doing all year but we just had quarterbacks that just run out of there and throw it away. We hadn't been fortunate enough to get those sacks, but we got them today.

And you look at what you did wrong because I guarantee you they're going to know everything we did wrong. The opportunities they missed. . . . I'm sure they're looking at that.

He's one of the toughest players I've ever played with.

The street is where we all learn. I played organized football growing up as well, but when that was over, I went right to the street. I remember twisting my ankles, breaking my thumb, I hurt everything when I was little playing street ball.

I don't know the complete diagnosis. I just know I didn't tear anything, and that was the best news possible.

I think we're tough when we do things like that. We were responding to some things they like to do. We're active.

We're aware of how people look at the Patriots. When they're in the playoffs, they're invincible, unstoppable. We're going to have the attitude that they're good, but we can beat them.

It was a great play by me. I made the play, but it was something we'd talked about the whole game.

We don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves.

He did exactly what I thought and anticipated, ... It was perfect.

We're not messing around. We want to win every game from here on out. We have to or else we go home. I'll tell you what, we do have our thoughts in the right place, though, and that's winning. We're a winning football team, that's what we do.

My mind-set is taking it one day at a time. That's all I can do.

I guess we're living right. Everything worked out tonight. ... We have something special here.

When I look back, I'm glad I grew up in a small town. There, it's just you, your family and whatever you make of it.

I don't care who they put out there. We're going to try to whip whoever they put out there.

The only adjustment I have to make is being in game shape. When you take this time off, you lose a little of that game-time conditioning.

I'm always fighting to make the team anyway. I'm always preparing like I'm one of the bottom guys, trying to make the team.

Things are a little different ... The way the organization is run is a lot different, but who's to say the correct way to run it? It's stable. There's not a lot of in and out. You know who the coach is. You know who the core guys are. I thought I was one of the core guys there, but obviously I got out of there.

It's sore. But I'm not really worried. I just want to know what's wrong so I can start taking care of it.

I think as a veteran player, in general, you should feel that sense of responsibility to try to lead these guys to becoming good pros. You want the league to be in good hands, and you want these guys to become great NFL players and then pass it along to the next generation. You can only lead by example, and that's pretty much what I'm trying to do.

I've been blessed with some luck, great ability and athleticism. That's really what's made me a great player, but I think the reason I've been able to last this long is the little things like taking care of my body.

I said it before the season and I believed it. I said this was a championship-level team. We believed that, even if nobody else did.
