I got to the point where I was just aggravated. I wasn't able to practice. I was here to play football and I didn't have the energy to do it. The best thing for me was to go home and get better.

The speed in a real game is a lot faster than it is in practice. We've got one of the best defenses we can go against in practice, but the speed is still a little faster come game time. I've got that experience now and I can take that to next week and use that.

I'm OK being bored on the sidelines. If I'm sitting at practice doing nothing, then it's a good day.

I've seen him do this in practice before, definitely. I've seen him line up and hit 10, 15 shots in a row from out there. He might miss 15 in a row, he might hit 15 in a row. He's that kind of a shooter.

I was pretty confident. I try to hit those a lot in practice.

You can try to simulate game-like conditions in practice, but it's just not the same until you play with someone else.
