against critical field giving goal kicked lead talked three week yards
The critical thing in my view, when you look at the whole thing is, we kicked the field goal to take the lead and they go 62 yards for a touchdown in three plays. We talked all week about giving up big plays. You can't do it against any team, particularly against Pittsburgh.
regular season won
We've won the first of a nine-game season. We have a nine-game regular season and right now we're 1-0.
game seven won
We won the first game of a nine-game season. Those other seven are gone.
close couple failed games home last offensive side stadium ways weeks win
We have not done the things on the offensive side particularly the last couple of weeks that you need to be able to do. Normally, we find ways to win at home (they were 4-4 at Qualcomm Stadium this season), we find ways to win close games ---- and we have failed to do that this season.
remarkable shook throws
The quarterback is unbelievable. Some of the throws he made, I just shook my head. He is one remarkable player.
emotional philip talking
This will not be too big for Philip Rivers. I'm talking about it from the emotional and intellectual standpoint.
games guys maybe refused speaks win
You have to find a way to win the games where you maybe don't play at your very best. Our guys just refused to be denied. I think that speaks very, very well for them.
accurately anxious career game might predict problem score surface time
The problem with that is every time I've ever done that in my career it's been a low-scoring game and when I've thought it (would be) a low-scoring game it was a shootout. Going in, on the surface you might think that, but I don't think there's any way to accurately predict it. All we're anxious to do is find a way to score one more than they have. That's all we care about.
catch four great last point putting responding team time
What they've done is remarkable. But at what point in time do you keep responding when you have to keep putting in new players? They've done it wonderfully over the last four years, but there comes a time where it has to catch up with you, even with a team as great as this one.
against compete opportunity special
When we get the opportunity to compete against each other, there's something special in that.
against common common-sense legislate
We can legislate against that as long as it's officiated with common sense.
ability evidence history indicate injuries perform recent winning
There is no evidence in their recent history that would indicate that injuries have in any way compromised their ability to perform in a winning way.
