“It's (the defensive scheme) going to give every player on the defense an opportunity to make plays, especially guys that we've added.”
Clancy Pendergast
“New England's a good team. Definitely. They've got good players and a good scheme. We did make some plays but you can't get into a third-and-35 situation [as Green Bay did at one point]. Throwing the ball to the other team isn't going to get it done, either.”
Brett Favre
“The scheme was to make big plays. The guys stepped up, the offensive line did a great job and I was fortunate to be able to connect on a couple deep passes.”
Troy Smith
“It all goes to the players. There's not a lot of scheming going on, so it wasn't the coaching. I think it was purely to the ability of those players.”
John Fox
“In this league, it's so hard to guard guys one-on-one. But it's your team scheme. We use the phrase in practice every day, 'help the helper.' Help your teammate like you'd want him to help you.”
Lawrence Frank
“Teams can scheme to stop things but, with a team like ours, we can still make plays. Our cornerbacks did a hell of a job this week and that allowed me to get a rush.”
Elvis Dumervil
“We had a good scheme and the players got it done. We felt that as long as we could stay in the game anything might happen.”
