It was great just to be able to play with him. Just because of what he brought with him. I was happy to have played with him.

I know as long as I continue to play how I can play that I'll be OK, ... No one's ever safe. I know that and it's not a thing where I'm complacent or relaxed. But if I focus on what I'm doing every game, every play, I'll be all right.

I'm a little more confident and comfortable this year. This time of year I'm trying to make every play.

Rod doesn't take anything for granted. He's out there playing like every play is his last play.

We told our guys early on that we're going to play or we ain't going to play. You can't let things like that distract you.

Everything was fine until he showed up. He's good, and they're all good. They're a hard team to play, but we really need to play them well.
