I don't necessarily look at the 2-point conversion. I look at the opportunity that we gave them to have the 2-point conversion. If we get a first down when we have the ball, we're able to take a knee later in the game and end it on our terms. As an offensive line, we didn't provide that opportunity. That's what sticks with me.

I can't count how many alter egos I've met. The only one I care about is the one that shows up on Sundays. That's the one we've had for 16 weeks. That's the guy we're hoping shows up for four more.

He's obviously very disappointed in a lot of things. But I think he's going to work on the things that coach wants him to work on. And when he gets his chance again, I think he'll be ready.

I don't think that's something that Patrick has said at all or entertained.

I don't think that's something that you ever get past or get over, and I don't think it's something you should get past or get over. It's something you learn to deal with, but I think it's driven him to work on some things that he feels he needs to work on. And also make a push for staying that No. 2 and making a push for No. 1, whether it's at the end of this year or next year or whether it's somewhere else.

I just missed being out there, let alone having a star back like that who can do special things. You want to be a part of a situation like that.

I haven't heard any rated-PG-13 ones. I really would rather not get into it.

I'm not going to be able to throw my long touchdown pass.

It was good to see that side of him. It's probably an indication of how much stress we've all been under, having to answer all the questions about, 'Is it still a rivalry if you can't win?' Blah, blah, blah. I think if you go down to Dallas this morning and ask anybody about that game, I think the rivalry is still there.

It's definitely made a huge difference, especially in times of trouble. We didn't necessarily have a couple good series in Dallas, and it would have been easy to point the finger and blame it on something. But having the camaraderie that we do and knowing where everybody is going to be, we were able to fight through it and have a great fourth quarter.
