“There hasn't been a whole lot of talk about us — except to say that we're going to stink it up. And to slap those people in the face that don't believe in us, I feel great right now. I'm riding on cloud nine.”

“That's ridiculous. I think we should still go to bat and fight for that one because it looked like a sack to me.”

“To be honest, he's never really fully recovered. I think he's an unbelievable athlete and still has potential to be a very good player. But I think him missing out of camp and getting hurt right away hurt him. I think ever since then, he's kind of been playing catch-up. There's a very fine line. At some point, you have to decide what's more important.”

“It's taken a season. Rushing with a guy like Jason ... you know he's kind of unpredictable in his rush because he's going to take what the offense gives him. He's going to force the issue, but if he sees he can beat (the offensive lineman) inside, he's going to beat him inside.”

“We're supposed to be the modern-day gladiators. This is a big, macho world where people think you can't talk about difficult things from your childhood. You're talking about putting yourself in a very vulnerable position and that's hard for people with this kind of mentality.”

“We're building something. He said something last week that kind of got, I think, misconstrued, didn't come out right. The thing is, we understand. We bought in, we're buying in and we have to continue to do that.”

“When everybody's coming off the field and one guy's coming on the field, it's kind of weird. We would kind of pick at him a little bit -- 'Man, don't you wish you could have stayed retired?' But he comes back in and he's washed down in sweat and he's tired because he's gone out and he's worked hard. As one of his peers, I certainly can appreciate that.”

“We've been joking he was trying to take the ball away from me more than he was trying to help me get in the end zone.”

“We just brushed the surface. The perception is that we ran a lot of blitzes, but we didn't. We had some success with our base stuff, so coach didn't have to call many blitzes at all.”

“Because he's such a great pass rusher, teams are going to slide their line to try and protect [the quarterback]. In this defense, you can't display your protection right away because you don't know where he's coming from. It constantly makes those [offensive linemen] check at the line because they have no idea where he's going to line up.”
