Regardless, if we said it 10 times a 1,000 times, if Rodney's out there or if Rodney's not out there, whoever's out there -- 11 guys -- we play team defense,

Regardless of who's on the field, the guys are required to perform at a high level. So, regardless if it's Richard or if it's a rookie, you're expected to get the job done.

It's not Rodney lining up out there and making plays by himself. Everybody has to come together and everybody has to be in position to make play when they have the opportunity.

Last week we were sort of embarrassed at what [San Diego] was able to accomplish, and I think guys stepped up and tried to play more physical, more aggressive. Collectively, everybody did a better job at their roles.

It's going to be really tough regardless. If you're not seeded you're going to have come through an even harder route.

They said I should not have been able to carry Cody past two weeks let alone for nearly seven months. He is my lucky, miracle baby.
