Tim Rattay Quotations

Obviously, I wasn't happy about it. You don't ever want to come out of a game, and I thought we still had a chance to win it.

I don't ever want to come out of the game, ... I felt we still had a chance to win. I was very upset about it. It's the coach's decision, and I always respect the coach's decision.

He rides them, ... He rides those guys hard, and he demands a lot, and it's good. Those guys are responding.

He's coming in and out of his breaks really well. He's always been a very sudden player, Brandon, in terms of getting in and out of his breaks. ... That's where you obviously create the most separation, is right out of the breaks.

I think we're going to try some things to get the tight end involved, ... I'm not going to force it. I'm just going to see what happens and maybe use the tight end a little more.

It feels good, ... I've been jogging the last two weeks.

I take full responsibility for this loss. This is really tough.

I wasn't happy about it, ... I felt we still had a chance to win the game. I was very upset about it. But it was the coach's decision and I always respect the coach's decision.

We never felt it slipping away. We felt good and confident. I couldn't make any plays near the end, and I take full responsibility for this loss.

We did some good things on the second drive. It was good to come out after the interception and go right down the field and score.

We're trying to establish that the team can win and play in this league, ... As it goes down through the positions, we're all out to prove something.

You hope they'd have to coach that, ... just like a team that gives you a funky look on defense. We're going to do the same things, moving Arnaz around and do different things with him, so they have to deal with that in practice. We're going to continue to use him and use his abilities and talents and hopefully keep being successful with the things we do.

You guys can make your own judgments on that. Obviously, I'm not trying to throw the ball to the other team.

Arnaz has some abilities you can use, as far as moving him around and doing different things. He's a strong guy and can break tackles. Brandon can get down the field, jump up and make acrobatic catches and he's real sudden in and out of his breaks. Of course, a guy like Johnnie is solid all the way around. You want some variety with your receivers and I think we have that.

There's obviously a lot of new terminology I've got to learn. Now I'm eager to go out and prove myself to show them they weren't wrong.

I've been working hard; I'd like to say I was excited to hear it. I just felt like if I kept practicing hard, something good will happen. You can't get too upset or too happy in the course of training camp.

I missed on a lot of throws out there that I wanted to make, ... It can happen, but I need to clean things up. I'm going to have to watch the tape and get better.

I missed some throws I obviously wanted to make, ... It's going to happen. I've got to clean things up, watch the tape and get better.

I've just got to keep going out there and get better. I feel good about the way I've been practicing. I understood it was going to be a competitive situation, and I love to compete.

I'm done talking about last year. It's this year. I forgot what happened last year, and I really don't care what happened. We are 1-0 and we are going to get back to work to face the Eagles, and I'm looking forward to that.

It's unbelievable that the defense would come out and give us 14 points and we didn't respond.

They come out and give us 14 points,

It was just a matter of getting into rhythm, ... In the third and fourth quarter, we showed that. So, that was one of the positive things you can build on. We're 1-and-1. The loss was like match play in golf. We lost the second hole, and regardless how much you lose it by, you've got to move on.

It's like golf in match play, ... We lost the second hole, and it doesn't matter how much you lose it by. You still go on to the third hole. We've got to get better. There's still 14 holes left.

It was good to come out after the interception and go right down the field and score,

It was the first for me, and it was definitely strange, weird in fact, ... Being in the visiting locker room like this is a whole new experience for me. It would have been nice had the outcome been different, but it wasn't meant to be.

It was real emotional. We really thought about him, and when we kneeled down after the game, it really hit me again. It meant a lot to get this win.

We had to go under center. That's the way it goes. That's the situation.

I could not make any plays near the end and I take full responsibility for this loss on the offensive side of the ball,
