Jon Kitna Quotations

It was a weird game. You felt like they were trying to hurry up and get the game over with, so they could get to (the playoffs).

It almost brought me to tears going in there to see him.

Whether he watched or played every play that first year, I think Carson would be doing the same thing he's doing today.

Basically, the money has been cut in half because there are more free agents on the market with less money to spend on them. This whole situation, it's not good for any of us and it's not good for the game. Something that was so healthy is now not so healthy.

That's what they said, right now you're the guy in the huddle. When we go to the number ones, you're in there. That's the way I approach it. There's not going to be any politics played here with the new staff. The best guy is going to play. I feel comfortable where I'm at.

He will never tell you this, but he wants to be really, really good, ... It drives him. He wants to be the best at everything he does, whether it be football or pool or golf. That's why it is fun being with him. Neither of us will concede anything. He's never going to be satisfied as a football player.

There's no sentiment in it for me. We still have a long road ahead of us. I think it's important for us to play well and fix some of the things that happened to us last week, but not at the detriment of next week's game. We have to be smart.

I didn't really think that a rookie could be as far along as he is,
