We needed this, it's a rite of passage game, ... When you get through a game like this, it shows you what you're about and shows you where you're trying to go. ... At certain points, this is a journey. And it was a hell of a journey today.
It's going to be a showing of what we are all about and what were trying to get accomplished for the whole year. As a whole, this game is appropriate for so many reasons.
There's no hard feelings. We've got something great going on. We've got a real good head coach, who sets a great tone . . . got players who have one common goal. In the end, we're trying to get to Detroit. Don't let anybody fool you. That's why we're in this game.
