“When we had four guys down rushing the quarterback I can only remember once where I rushed just me against him,”
Julius Peppers
“Remember last year? 'Gregg, you can't stop the run with that defensive line.' 'Gregg, these guys can't rush the passer.' I don't know why I didn't cut my wrist and lay in a hot tub of water. Every one of them played with an attitude.”
Gregg Williams
“When you can rush two [linebackers] on third down, and we already have one of those types of guys in Jason Taylor, you've really helped your chances of becoming a successful third-down team. It's something that we would look at trying to do if the opportunity presents itself.”
Nick Saban
“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.”
Vonnie Holliday
“They are as advertised. When they can get to you with just three or four guys rushing, and they don't have to blitz or pressure, they have such tremendous athletes they can lock you up on the outside.”
Keith Gilbertson
“We were rushing things when we didn't need to rush. Hopefully we'll learn from this and grow up after it.”
Michael Gardner
“I'm rushing it. When I rush it, my arm is late, and therefore the ball stays up.”
