Greg Ellis Quotations

We would've hated going into the bye at 4-4, ... It's a big swing for us, even though it's only one game. We had some good things out there, but there are still things that need to be fixed. It's easier to go back and fix them on a positive note, going into the bye with a win.

I credit them because they are fighters. Throughout the game, they felt like they were going to win.

Guys were actually talking about the Kansas City game.

I think it helped, ... It was hot out there and we needed everyone to get it done.

We're dealing with this year. The NFL is a year-to-year deal. Whatever Bill wants me to do, that's what I'm going to do to the best of my ability.

We had a lot riding on this game emotionally.

You know you have to contain McNabb, and I credit our secondary because they covered their guys well.

When you're playing 15 or 20 plays a game, then I would probably say you're not the piece they're looking for.

We had a better pass rush than we have had in the past because guys were fresher. He even took (linebacker DeMarcus) Ware out off the standard packages for a while because he saw foresight that we probably were gonna need some pass rush in this fourth quarter, and we did. Guys up front had some good rushes and I think that aided us in our win.

You can't buy too much into this one.

We hung in there and stuck together. We didn't try to go out there and do anything crazy that wasn't in our job description. We stuck to our technique, and it paid off for us.

We're very disappointed and shouldn't have even been in this situation after starting the season 7-3. We lost a lot of close games but can't get those back. We have to take this team and work toward the future.

It's about a three-hour trip, and that's not bad for a weekend getaway. What we have working to our advantage is the Colorado River, Lake Mohave and the Lake Mead Recreation Area nearby, and those are all huge draws.

It should have never happened. When you're 7-3, you don't imagine that you're going to lose as many games as we have. We need to get it back on track. It's a now-or-never thing.

No anger on my behalf and I don't think there's none on Bill's. I just think obviously he just feels that I don't fit into the scheme the way he wants me to fit, or I'm not that guy he's looking for.

It was kind of the same situation. It was like, man, you feel like you're doing good, and they get that at the end. You do get a feeling like it's the same thing. I'm glad we won the coin toss.

He's so powerful. He's probably the most powerful running back in the league right now. He's not really elusive, but you think you've got him, and he ends up falling forward for more yards. That's the kind of back you want on your football team.
