As far as him being our No. 1 until he overtakes Rod Smith, that's just not going to happen. That's just plain writing on the wall. I really hope Ashley comes in and works hard to be, whether or not he's No. 1, but be the best person he can be. That will help him in the long run.

Personally, I don't think they'll stray too far from that. But if they do, we're going to be prepared, obviously, by what we see in the preseason. It's all we can go on.

There's no way. And I don't think they're going to accept anyone until they get a Super Bowl won.

We're not that far off and we know anything can happen,

We all know it, just no one's said it. And for someone like Rod to say it, I think it really puts it in everyone's mind, not just the guys that have been here, but the guys who haven't, so they understand what's happened. We're in a tough conference in the AFC, and AFC West. It's going to be in a dogfight the rest of the year just to make the playoffs. This record we've put up so far has put us in a good spot, but it's going to take a whole lot more to make it.

They'll find something. I might have a mustache at the Super Bowl and they'll complain about that.
