Q: Coach Coughlin said you had a visitor come in and talk to you guys Friday.

Q: His message was play like champions?
A: Right, and that’s what we just wanted to do tonight is come out and start strong and play like we know how to play football.

Q: Do you feel like you did a good job of putting the past behind you?

Q: Coach said that Andre Brown has a broken femur. What does that mean to the team
A: I feel bad for Andre. He’s my little brother, man. It’s heartbreaking for me just to see him so down. When I was a rookie, I told David (Wilson) that D(errick) Ward broke his fibula and I had to step in and be a big part of our offense and that’s what I expect from David and I told him just to get right and get ready for the following weeks to come.

Q: Do you think he’s ready?
A: I think he can be. Once we get him going and get him learning a little more and different things in different areas, I think he’ll be a great asset to our offense.

Q: Did the bye help you a lot?
A: The bye? Yes. It helped me a whole lot. I just felt more explosive today. I’m not going through so much pain walking around. I just feel thankful for that bye and just to be out here playing with some health.
