Kerry Collins Against Quotations

Call it lucky, call it fortunate, call it what you will. We've had a bunch of them go against us. We were able to handle those kinds of things, and I think that was a big key to winning the game.

I don't think my mind-set was any different tonight than for any other game. I really tried to finish this on a positive note. Obviously, playing against the Giants was a pretty big deal for me.

He's the real deal, man. I mean, shoot, the guy played outstanding for a rookie last year against some of the best rushers in the NFL and certainly held his own, played well.

There was pressure, no doubt. The guys up front had their hands full and they did the best they could. The Patriots have an awesome defense. What hurt was all the penalties we had. You can't have those kinds of penalties or turnovers against a team like that. But hopefully, we can learn from our mistakes and straighten things out next week.

They're a good team and you can't make mistakes against them, whether it's dropped passes or interceptions before the half or penalties that hurt us.
