Joey Harrington Game Quotations

The pace of the game flowing down has everything to do with you being comfortable. My first two years here, we were playing musical receivers, rotating guys in and out of the lineup, guys getting hurt. It was a tough couple years as far as trying to build any sort of comfortable relationship with any of the players out there.

I think this becomes a confidence game more than anything, ... I'm not worried about making a statement to anybody but ourselves. This team is ready to get some confidence, and I think that's the best way to put it. I talked at the beginning of the season about getting a few breaks, making a few plays, getting on a roll, and this is a perfect week to start that, especially after we played Chicago, where we took one in the jaw. It's time to bounce back.

You've only got one game to watch on Monday,

As far as taking shots when they are available ? if they are available in the first preseason game, if they're available on the first play of the game ? we're going to take them. It's an opportunistic thing as opposed to a focus. We have three healthy, big targets right now, and that helps.

It's just one game and we all realize that. But let's face it. It's the Packers. It's the team that has won the division longer than I care to remember. We're all tired of losing the close ones and looking up and seeing green and yellow on top of the division. It felt great to beat them.

They're a great defense for a reason. Our whole mind-set, our whole game plan was to pound it at them and keep pounding until they broke. We came up short.
