You put it in your pocket and you get on the plane as fast as you can and you get home. And that's what we're going to do.

Mike is typically a fast healer. At this point in the season, he's basically seen everything he's going to see and practiced everything he needs to practice. I think he could get mental reps and still perform fine. The key is to get him as healthy as possible for Sunday night.

He's 25. This is his second year in this system. I think it took (Philadelphia Eagles quarterback) Donovan (McNabb) five years in his system to really reach the heights that he reached last year. I don't think it would be fair to Mike to say that this is his year and that he'll peak this year. The guy is continuing to climb. He's a ways away from his potential, but he's pretty darn good.

He asked a question and after he did it I was just emotional and upset as anyone who had just fought their guts out for close to four hours would be. I just wasn't in a mental state at that time to talk anymore. We had been through too much for too long.

It's hard on him. He's a competitor and he doesn't like to feel like he's letting his team or his teammates down.

It's hard on him. He's a competitor and he doesn't like to feel like he's letting his team or his teammates down. He does feel that way. I know he does. He's of strong faith, and I'm sure that's how he's getting through it. That's Jason. He's a pretty spiritual guy. He'll be back and he'll be strong. I just feel bad that people haven't gotten to see it yet like I got to see it for three or four years.
