We’re still in this season, and it’s been my approach since I was a rookie to take it one game at a time. I’m feeling good right now, though.

Just the way it felt and how it was kind of contorted, I immediately thought it felt worse than it is. I was determined not to get carted off the field again, though.

There’s a lot of reasons to be optimistic. I think we’re headed in the right direction. It doesn’t happen overnight, but we’re going the right way.

I was really surprised,

I realized how much I missed it. I want my teammates to understand that as long as I’m able to be out there, even if it’s on a leg and a half, I want to...

He has really sets the tone for this organization and you can see that. He’s done a great job, thus far.

It definitely gives you a little bit more opportunity to make plays when you’re singled up, … With our linebackers coming or our safeties coming, it changes things up to allow each guy to get...

As players, we all stood back, took one knee and prayed for Thomas.

He’s a very electrifying player, exciting player to watch, definitely. He could be an asset to any team in the league.

It’s always good to see Jerry. But it’s normal now. He’s been gone for a while. It doesn’t feel as weird to see him on the other side of that line now. The years pile...

I told the offensive line they played really well after the game. They just kept grinding on them.

He’s a very electrifying player, an exciting player to watch, definitely. I think he could be an exciting player in this league.

I’m very disappointed in a lot of ways. Because I know we’re a lot better than what we showed out there on the field. I think we just have to trust in what we’re doing....

He’s a little dinged up right now, but when he’s healthy he gives us a guy who makes a lot of plays on the offensive side. He’s fun to watch. He can do a lot...

Our job is to keep those (offensive linemen) off the ‘backers so they can run.

We’re struggling to get back to where we were years ago. It’s a cycle.

Everything I’ve learned in 11 years is out the window.

When you present different looks, it gives them something to adjust to, and I don’t know if they made the adjustments.

He stepped up to the plate and did what he had to do without overdoing it and using it as a platform for whatever reasons — PR purposes or whatever. I really respect that.

I still enjoy playing and I still have a desire to play.

With our linebackers coming or our safeties coming, … it changes things up to allow each guy to get some pressure in the quarterback’s face.

I’m staying optimistic and positive. I’m just going to attack this rehab and get back as soon as I can.

You could look at it that way. As good as they are, we did contain them as best we could for three quarters. But we didn’t make the plays we needed to toward the end...

That’s just one game, and to sit here and say we’ve arrived, I can’t say that, because we haven’t, … There’s definitely a lot of room for improvement and a lot more games ahead of...

We were able to get the first sack of the year on (Manning). That was one of the plays we did well, but we needed more of that.

We came out prepared and fought together, we played hard and we just believed in ourselves and our plan and we got it done.

You’d have to say all of them, but Barry Sanders was special. I remember the one highlight film against the Bears — that’s the one that stands out — and he’s had a couple of...

We didn’t get it done. We just didn’t make enough plays to help us win the game. It’s a good thing we’ve got the bye. We can change some things and get it turned around.

As I got older, I knew I had to do something different. (Last year) I felt stronger, more flexible. I felt re-energized.
