It was always a square-fist-in-the-mouth type of game.

I just have to keep reminding myself that that the game is officially over. That was a real gut check. Things did not look for good for a while.

Lack of intensity didn't have anything to do with it. The Patriots played a much more physical game than we did.

It's a big game. It's the last regular-season game and I think everybody realizes what happens if you win and what happens if you lose.

We just played them a month ago. We beat them 10-3 and we had to intercept the ball on the 1-yard line to do it. If there's a letdown this week then we'll pay for it. I don't expect that to happen.

With Milloy and Troy Vincent and the corners they have to go with this front seven, they're dangerous.
