There's still a little discomfort, but it's football. You're not going to go into every game feeling healthy. I definitely understand that. But overall, it actually did a lot better than I thought it was going to do today.

To me, this is just the third week. I'm in this thing for the long haul. I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of my career. I know three games would not make that, therefore it really hasn't sunk in yet.

I definitely feel like we're a dynamic duo, ... You've got Michael Pittman, an excellent blocker, an excellent pass catcher. His ability to do that is going to allow both of us to be on the field at the same time. That's a double threat the defense has to worry about.

Not a bad debut,

The next year, we had gone through all that and understood how to approach game after game. We had to focus on that game. We know what it takes to win — hard work and dedication. Hopefully, we can keep it rolling. We are the (SEC) champions until somebody knocks us off.

It's not significant pain. It is sore, though. Overall, it feels good.
