Kerry gave the (Houston) safety a quick pump and he just went flying to Randy. They actually had a guy underneath and both safeties running to him. When (Collins) threw the ball outside to Doug, it's a big play.

Part of when you go out and say we're going to run the ball or we're going to accomplish these things, who you are doing it against has some effect on how well you do it, ... Philadelphia made some good plays.

He's very good. He's very athletic, very aggressive, has great instincts. We looked at him hard in evaluating the draft, and he's a playmaker. He has a way of getting to the ball (and) getting the ball pulled out. He's going to be an outstanding player.
