‘Mark Anderson led the way in play time. It was hard to ignore his efforts on the field, too. Anderson was whipping around all over the field — having been lined up on both the right and left defensive end spot, as well as standing up to threaten with a rush up the middle of the offensive line. Anderson was the most consistent defensive end in putting pressure on the quarterback. He forced the pocket to collapse a couple of times, even though he didn’t come away with a sack.’

‘”Can he, yes he can. Will we ask him to, probably not. I’d like to not just go out there and run him 25 times a game, but if that’s what it takes to win the game, that’s what we’ll do, but you’d rather not. Choice did a great job, he did do a good job yesterday, but when you get Fred back, you feel a lot more confident splitting those carries and keeping both of them fresh.”‘

‘On Monday Chan Gailey said he expects his safety to be OK this week, “He came out with it, he played the whole game and it came out a little bit more swollen today than maybe all of us had hoped, but I think he’ll be fine for this weekend.”‘

‘Not much else can be said or written about CJ Spiller that hasn’t already. I used the word “special” to describe him on the Overtime postgame show Sunday night. He is showing he can be, and has a chance to be a really special player in this league.’

‘No. It looks like we came out pretty good in the ball game. Nothing major for sure. Some little minor things may keep guys out of some work during the course of the week, but I think we will have everybody for Sunday.’

‘”We felt like with the matchup that we had in this ball game we were going to give Justin (Rogers) a chance to go out there and play, and he was playing so well we just left it the way it was,” said Gailey. “He’ll stay there right now and they’ll both keep practicing there and we’ll see how it goes in the future.”‘
