You can point to that. You can point to the fact that we weren't able to run or get the ball to Steve Smith. That's a recipe for disaster for this football team. We need to run the football effectively, and that helps get Steve open. It's like we can't do one unless we do the other, unfortunately.

We couldn't run the football and that's a recipe for disaster for this football team. We need to run the football effectively and that helps to get Steve Smith in the game. It's like if we can't do one, we can't really do the other, unfortunately.

We ran better, we threw better, we blocked better. We just played a better game this week.

We did a lot better job scheme-wise. The last time the protections were not built in to account for the extra guy they brought down. This time they were built in. If we didn't pick it up we had a tight end or safety do it. We were a lot more prepared.

They play that Tampa-2 that's not really Cover-2, where they bring safeties down.

He's good every game. He makes moves that I've never seen other players make.

The thing about Brett is he is such a talent and such a competitor that he is going to do everything within the framework of an offense -- and sometimes out of it -- to win a game, especially on a Monday night. I can't remember the last time he had a bad Monday night game. You are going to have to force him to have a bad game in the national spotlight.

You're never safe - No. 4 can do some amazing things back there. I've seen him do it many times.

There's a lot of guys in this locker room who haven't won the whole thing before, me being one of them. I know how rare these opportunities are and you really have to take advantage of them. Jordan Gross , on the other hand, he thinks it's a damn walk in the park. It's his second one in three years. He thinks there's nothing to it.
