Everyone that watched the game and knows how I play could tell there was something on my knee, ... I didn't feel as mobile. We took it off at halftime and taped it and it felt a lot better. If I can go without a brace, I'm going to do it.

I felt really comfortable out there. A lot of that has to do with the offensive line. They gave me a lot of time. I didn't get touched too much today.

I felt I should have been the quarterback. But what could I do?

I felt happy I could keep my promise to get (Bettis) back home to Detroit.
