This will be a grind. This is a good defense. They're very disruptive. They're a good team.

He's proven to be a pretty good running back, inside or outside.

Why, did he say something? No, we talk, but they are their own people. You know, we were all good on that Wednesday (before the Indy game), then he comes out on Thursday and does his thing. I mean, what are you going to do? He respects everyone. It's just that sometimes it doesn't come out right.

He's a great offensive mind. He'll make use of the personnel you have down there. He's very resourceful. You got a good man.

He didn't hear it pop, so that's a good thing.

This is a good arrangement for us here. This is our little safe haven, not as many distractions, and we had a good practice.

Casey's the prototype nose tackle in the 3-4. He's got great balance, he's very powerful and he can move. He's down to the same weight he was when he was a rookie and that's good for him. This guy has recognition, not just for sacks. When people watch him play, they recognize how important he is to our defense, and what he allows us to do.

The good thing is Jerome is walking around on his toes, ... There's an outside chance. But if Jerome is unable to go, Willie Parker will start.

I thought he did a lot of good things. He tackled very well. He was in position when needed to be in position. I thought he played a solid game.
