I think I'm up for the challenge. This team has a lot of potential. If we play good defense we can beat anybody.

I've been fortunate to have been through that before, where the offense struggled and the defense had to play every snap. I've been through it, so that's where I get some of my strength from.

It'll be interesting and I'm excited for the challenge of the year. I feel confident I can play at this level and my game is at a good level in terms of competing.

Rich is one of the most aggressive defenders I've seen in over two years. We want him to play defense for us.

We didn't play as good on defense as we wanted. But sometimes we were just right in their face and they made tough shots, so you've got to give them credit.

We played much better defense in the second half.
