He basically led this team for the last 10 years when you think about it. We knew why he came back. It was no secret he wanted to finish his career with a championship.

Preparation-wise, it's not going to change anything. I won't know until we get to Friday, basically. If Ben practices, I'm sure that'll probably be an indication that he'll play. If he doesn't, I really don't know what to expect.

Leaving the game on Monday, I had no idea (who would start this Sunday), but I knew there was an opportunity to play (against Jacksonville),

When it happened, he stayed in the next play. After that he went off to the side. But I'm still preparing the same way. You have to be ready for everything.

We're a team, right now, that can't handle when people are out. I think our starting five would be pretty doggone good. I don't know if our top 10 or 11 would match up with other teams.

When we think we lead we are most led.
