Daunte Culpepper Job Quotations

He's my good friend, but you almost get to thinking that maybe enough is enough. And maybe the Vikings' organization has had enough. It's not my decision, what happens with Randy. The Vikings organization makes that decision, and whatever they do, that's what's going to happen. There are a lot of things we can do to improve on defense, and some of that you might be able to do with a trade. We've also got a lot of guys who can get the job done if we just play together. That's the most important thing: all of us playing together as a team.

He can play any position. He stepped in and did a tremendous job tonight. He is a very smart player, very bright player. He stepped up to the challenge when it was thrown his way.

I give them a lot of credit for getting prepared and focusing on football with everything going on down there. But they understand also that we have a job to do, too. They are not going to feel bad for us that we are 0-2.

They did a great job of causing confusion and stopping the run, and putting guys in position to make plays.

My job is to move the chains. If a guy doesn't understand that, he has to get on the same page as me. The good thing here is everyone understands that.

Our offense is very rhythmic and we couldn't get into a real rhythm today. I have to give a lot of credit to Tampa Bay defensively for that. They did a great job getting us out of our rhythm. But the main things we have to focus on are the things that we can fix, like the mistakes we made.
