We have so far to go. Though we are 3-0 ... we look at the tape at who's on the horizon. There's an analyst on every corner that's telling you, 'Hey, you are one of the top five or six teams in the league.' Three weeks ago, we were in the 30s, you know what I mean?

It was very scarily familiar to me, ... You know, a missed field goal, a missed extra point costs you games. I'm sure they're sick about that today. If you're going to finish last in field goal accuracy, you're not going to win many games.
