Team Is The Focus, Not Individual Records
We have life in our drive for the playoffs, so Sunday means everything for us. I know other things have to happen to make it, but our focus is on beating the Chicago Bears and finishing the season 8-8. That is all we can control. We have had a good week of practice and everybody is excited about what we're doing.
When you are in this league for a few years, you understand that it is a marathon and not a sprint. You will have some ups and downs, but you have to keep tuned in to what you are doing and keep working hard. I think this team has grown up a lot. The young guys have learned a lot, have learned how to win tough games like we had last week against Minnesota.
For me, I'm not thinking about any of the individual numbers in front of me. I can only accomplish as much as the team allows me to accomplish. So whether I get five yards or 200 yards on Sunday, I only care about beating Chicago and being the best we can be.
We all know we have a great rivalry with the Bears. They are having a great season and the defense, well, everybody knows about the defense. We have to be sharp and execute the game plan and play hard and smart football.
