“He's smart and when the field is wide open, so he figured, why not take it? He's not Michael Vick or anything like that back there, but he can get some yards.”
“With the amount of weapons showing up on this offense, it seems like the defense is always scrambling to cover all the bases, and it gives a lot of people opportunities to make big plays. That's just what's been happening.”
“As offensive linemen, we take pride on someone else doing good. If Clinton doesn't have a great day, we immediately feel that it's our fault. So we need to get this going quickly.”
“Mark's been around for eons, it seems like. He's kind of seen everything. He's experienced everything. He knows when to keep it loose, he knows when it's time to work.”
“It seems that way. I don't know if it's a physical thing or a mental thing. But whatever it is, it's come to bite us the last three weeks in a row now. It really has.”
“Every offensive lineman in the league is going to tell you that all they want to do is run the ball. With a back like Clinton, we just wanted a chance to prove that we could win the physical battle and move the ball on the ground. We finally got the chance.”
“We've always seemed to be able to overcome, and the last two weeks it just wasn't happening. It was disappointing, because we know we're better than that.”
