Tom Coughlin Coming Quotations

We knew when we were coming into this that it would be a tough game, and it was. It was a very physical game.

Eli was extremely poised. He knew exactly what he was coming into, he was focused and he didn't let any of the noise or anything bother him. He played well enough. If we'd done some things on defense, he played well enough for us to win.

First and foremost, he's an outstanding athlete. He has to be or else he wouldn't be in this position. He takes great care of himself. He's a competitor by nature. He has a great sense of humor, which I think keeps everything in perspective for him, good or bad. But, to play as long as he has played and to be on the verge of breaking these records is a tremendous accomplishment. For someone to be in a position that he's in and having done this for so many years and continue to be excited about coming to work every day and the opportunities he has is really a remarkable thing.

I really felt that they were zoomed in on the task at hand, ... It was very good, and it was very serious. Everyone seemed to be focused. ... We knew this would be one of those NFC East divisional games with the Redskins coming in here and playing as well as they can. We expected it to be a four-quarter game like all of these games have been.

The injury set him back but he is coming back to the point where I think we can expect him to improve steadily.
