View Photo »I have been so focused on other things, but it is exciting to play around with it and think about what it would be like to have McFadden and (Michael) Bush on the field at the same time, with Denarius and Jacoby and maybe Darrius Heyward-Bey -- there's a lot of speed and two real physical, fast guys
Carson Palmer - that’s who I see making the big difference in this year’s football team
For him to suck it up and go out there, and take two steps on the kickoff and just try not to tear his hamstring in half and get his team in the right position, and get his defense set up with a longer field, ... guys recognize that and appreciate that
I actually felt decent out there ... It was fun to go in there and play again. The game was pretty quick. Lying in bed there for a while, then go right back, now I know how (Oakland Raiders quarterback) Carson Palmer felt like that first little bit.
No, there might not be another one in the league ... He’s definitely the best punter in the league, but as far as a teammate, a leader, a veteran, a professional, he does everything right. He says the right things. He doesn’t act like a kicker. I wouldn’t put him in that mold. He is just a great teammat...
I was definitely aware of it
I don't think anyone has played as injured as he's played - he is playing at about 60 percent, maybe 50 percent - that doesn't happen ... For him to suck it up and go out there, and take two steps on the kickoff and just try not to tear his hamstring in half and get his team in the right position, and g...
He's definitely the best punter in the league, but as far as a teammate, a leader, a veteran, a professional, he does everything right ... He says the right things. He doesn't act like a kicker. I wouldn't put him in that mold. He is just a great teammate.
First and foremost that was a great call by Coach (Al) Saunders and Coach Jackson, the timing of it, and the looks we set up to get it were great ... At that point in the game it’s just a great call to pull out.
I didn't know how well this offensive line and the fullback play ... I didn't know how good those guys were until I was here and witnessed it firsthand. I didn't realize they were that dominant up front and that powerful upfront. It's been a pleasant surprise.
Louis hadn’t had a lot of catches all year ... He knew that was something special for him in the package. He did a great job of executing it.
Those guys are game-changers ... There’s not many punter-kicker combinations in the league, there can’t be a better one. We really focused on Devin Hester and I know Shane was focused on him. He did a great job with it.

Great call. Coach (Al) Saunders, Coach Jackson, the timing of it ... The looks we set up to get it were great. At that point in the game, just a great (gutsy) call to pull out. Louis hadn't had a lot of catches. All year. He knew that was something special for him in the package. He did a great job of e...
That’s a good defense ... Once they get backed up against the goal posts in the red zone, they’re tough to get in the red zone. Fortunately we have Seabass, who can make field goals as automatic as anybody. We were heavily reliant on him today.
Not to get touchdowns is something that frustrates you, but you can't let it frustrate you
People questioned what their ranking was statistically. That's a very good unit that's played together a long time and understands their scheme
First and foremost, great call ... Coach (Al) Saunders, coach Jackson, the timing of it. The looks we set up to get it were great. At that point in the game, just a great, ballsy call to pull out. Louis hasn’t had a bunch of catches all year. He knew that was something special for him in the package. He...
I think a huge key for us is starting quickly, putting some points on the board ... And giving our defense a chance to rest.
I don’t think it’s hit him
It happened three or four times (Wednesday) in practice, just running by people. We've got speed and we've got fast guys that people know about, but ... guys don't really know about Chaz Schilens or Murphy, both guys are fast
It makes it difficult ... You don't get the same guys on the field from the week before, that rhythm and timing thing slows down a little bit. So we have our work cut out for us.

You’ve got to win at home
Every chance I get to go on the field, whether it's practice or games, I feel more comfortable with it
