96 Quotes by Kerry Collins

I'm sure it's no coincidence that we're on Thursday night, first game of the year. It's great. There's a lot of talk about the Raiders right now, about Randy being here.

I know I'm not going to go the whole year without one but at the same time it just comes down to being smart with the ball, ... I think I'm doing that better than I did last year and I think that's why I've thrown less interceptions.

Call it lucky, call it fortunate, call it what you will. We've had a bunch of them go against us. We were able to handle those kinds of things, and I think that was a big key to winning the game.

I don't think my mind-set was any different tonight than for any other game. I really tried to finish this on a positive note. Obviously, playing against the Giants was a pretty big deal for me.

I didn't see him. I was just about to get rid of the ball and throw it away, and I got hit. My goal was not to have any turnovers . . . because I knew that's what it would take to beat these guys. It was a disappointing play.

He's the real deal, man. I mean, shoot, the guy played outstanding for a rookie last year against some of the best rushers in the NFL and certainly held his own, played well.

If he's not in, the thing rolls on. But hopefully we'll have him. With Randy, we have our plays every week where we try to get him the ball. I don't know if it will change too much. I think whoever steps in for him will do a good job.

I don't think guys are going to go and tank, ... I think we have enough players on the team that we're not going to let that happen.

He's got a little fight in him, got a little bit of an attitude. He talks a little trash. But that's part of what makes him great. All the great ones do that.
