Obviously, my emotions were running pretty high, ... I found out about an hour before the game after warm-ups that I was probably going to go. [McNair] didn't feel too well after warm-ups and it was very exciting to get the news that I was going to get an opportunity.

That made my day. I'll get that framed. I might have to take down the family picture and put that up.

Steve is struggling [physically] right now. He is banged up. He didn't think that in Week 7 he would be in this condition, and I know that is frustrating for him. I am just going to go out there and play my game and try to get a win.

I heard Jarrett Payton say, 'Watch out,' or something. I didn't think a guy could get there that quick and the next thing I know I'm sitting on the bench.

I'm sure a lot of the young guys were thinking we were going to go out there and do some conditioning in the pond or something. Maybe they thought we were going to swim some laps.

He said everybody has to be more accountable and have more respect for each other. When you're 4-12, all the small problems become big problems.

But I'm confident in those guys. We're going to go out and have fun.

The hours he puts in are mind-boggling.

They know what I can do and they know what I am capable of. I really don't have any choice of what they are doing upstairs.
