(on Giants WR Mario Manningham’s catch down the sideline on the Giants’ final drive) “He had both feet down. Good throw, good catch, man.”(on if he feels like it had to take a championship play like Manningham’s to win the game) “Yeah, I mean we fought down to the end. It was hard fought but didn’t work out in our favor so hats off to them.”
(on how it feels after the loss) “How do you think it feels? It feels badly. We fought hard. We know the taste and we don’t like the taste so we’re going to keep working offseason to try to get back here next year.”
(on what he will remember most about the season) “Close doesn’t get it, man. Almost doesn’t get it either. They played a good game. They finished the game; we didn’t. It is what it is, man.”
(on what the Giants did to be able to run the ball so well and control the clock) “I have no clue. They did run hard. We had a couple missed tackles. We’re going to watch film and see what really happened. I don’t think we can answer all those questions right now. I mean, they played a good game. I can’t take it from them. They played a good game and got the win, so hats off to them.”
(on if they felt as if they had the opportunities to put the game away) “We had plenty of opportunities. Those were the two best teams in the NFL. They’re going to make plays. We’re going to make plays. It’s all about who makes the most plays. They ended up making the most plays.”
(on how tough it is to handle the loss after winning 10 straight games) “It’s very tough to handle. It’s a big game and you lose that game that close, you can almost be proud that you fought all the way to the end, but it sucks, man. We know how it feels and we’ve just got to keep working.”
(on if they were feeling pretty good after they came back from the nine-point deficit to then take the lead at the half) “Never feel good until the game’s over. Regardless of whether we’re on a roll or we’re not on a roll, all that matters is the score at the end. They ended up having more points than us and they won. They got the victory.”
(on if he thought Giants WR Mario Manningham had his feet in on the catch on the sideline in the fourth quarter) “We’re always going to think it’s not a complete pass. It’s a good throw, a good catch. He got his feet inbounds, so it was a good play.”
(on if he was shocked that Manningham held onto the ball on that catch after they hit him) “I mean, all we can try to do is knock the ball out. They’re good, too. They’re in the NFL too, man. They’re going to make good catches. He has good hands and it is what it is.”
(on what the defense was thinking when the Giants got the ball with three minutes) “We’re thinking we’ve got to make a play. We’re thinking the game is on us and we’ve got to stop them. They’re good, too, so they just finished the game. They finished the game and we didn’t. But we fought hard, man. I’m proud of everybody. I’m proud of the whole team. We fought hard.”
(on the closeness of the locker room and what it feels like to go through the loss with his teammates) “It just sucks, man. Plain and simple, point blank, it sucks. We know what it feels like now. Now we have to make sure that we don’t have that feeling again.”
