‘When you lose, nothing goes the way you want it to. I just told him to keep working and keep doing the things that he had been successful at in times past the last couple of years. Just keep getting better. That is our only choice. That is what you are trying to do, go out there and find ways to get better. Hopefully I can help him be more productive as a quarterback.’

‘Everybody, all three units, being consistent in the same game and that really…we have had our ups and downs on offense, the defense has had their ups and downs and special teams has been the same way. Chan (Gailey) at the very beginning of the year talked about the perfect storm and getting all three of those to come together and all of us to play well in the same game throughout the season and continue to improve. Hopefully the perfect storm will happen this weekend.’

‘Everybody in this locker room is a competitor. We’re going to come out and continue to play and fight because that is just what we do. That is the type of character that these guys have. It won’t be hard for anyone to get up and be ready for this game this weekend.’

‘At the end of the day, every week is a new week. Whether or not you are undefeated or have not won a game, you have to go out there, get back at it and refocus.’

‘Bryant entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with Pittsburgh in 2011. The 6-4, 300-pound Northwestern product spent portions of the 2011 and 2012 seasons on the Steelers’ Practice Squad and 53-man roster.’

‘Thurman Thomas holds the team record for most consecutive games with 100 or more total yards from scrimmage with nine. He did it from game nine in 1992 through game one in 1993. During his run Thomas averaged 110 rushing yards per game and about 30 receiving yards per outing (29.8).’

‘Rogers has allowed opposing quarterbacks to complete 65 percent of passes thrown at him this season and compile a quarterback rating of 92.4, according to statistics from the website profootballfocus.com.’

‘Whatever their problems this year, last year, in 2004 or 1984, they start with Wilson at the top of the organization.’

‘Once before the year is out I want to see CJ Spiller get 30 carries and five receptions. Can he deliver, will he run out of gas? I just want to see it.’

‘Are the Colts much better? Not really.’

‘Full of hope to get their season back on track against a very beatable opponent, the Bills saw their offense get stuck in the mud time and time again.’

‘Booker Edgerson called Warlick “a leader” for his fierce stand during the 1960’s when African-American football players refused to play in New Orleans.’

‘If you haven’t figured it out by now, after 11 games, the Bills are a crappy team. If you sit and wonder why the Bills are either ignored or ridiculed outside of their blindly loyal fan base, now you know.’

‘The problem is, Chan Gailey is not using him as much as he should and holding back the Bills’ offense. Gailey has put the game in Ryan Fitzpatrick’s hands too many times when he could have relied on Spiller to carry the load. Gailey is exposing himself as a below average head coach, and showing the world that his quarterback is mediocre.’
