On the injury that he’s dealing with right now:
"It’s groin. It’s groin. It’s kinda one of those where you over-compensate for a long time. My knee has been feeling great for the last couple of months. Just for all the months of overcompensating, it just happens. If you’ve talked to anybody that has had a major kind of deal done, it’s always something that you have to overcompensate with it so long. You’ve got to get used to walking a certain way, running a certain way and you know it’s just coming back."

On whether the knee is fully back after reconstructive knee surgery:

"Oh absolutely. That’s one of those things where you cant defend yourself until you start winning and until you start getting after some quarterbacks. No matter what I say, I won’t defend that part. I have to go out and I have to get those things done."

On whether or not he’s surprised by Denver’s great start:

"I cant say that I am. I think they’ve had tools over there for years. They’re a good football team. The last few years we got a chance to play them. (They’ve) probably had games that they should’ve won in the past against other people that they haven’t won. I think they’re just having a fast start. We know exactly what we’re facing coming up this week and we’re going to bring our A game. Period."

On the way the fans should feel about the 2-2 start to the season:

"I think everybody should stay positive. We definitely are. We’re not panicking. We know that we have to play better as a team, but you know let’s face it, we’ve played the Baltimore Ravens, the Pittsburgh Steelers and Miami who was also a playoff team as well. It’s not like we had the easiest schedule in the world. We don’t see to be negative right now at all. Especially myself as I’m talking to you guys and talking to everybody else, I don’t see us in a negative light right now. I say ‘look, we’ve got to come out and be three and two, period.’ That solves a lot of problems."

On whether the players are down in the locker room after the 2-2 start:

"No, absolutely not and we can’t wait for Monday. That’s kind of our way of fixing any kind of problem that’s going on. You got out and win. Winning cures a lot of things. In an NFL locker room, if you’re sitting around and you’re 5-0 or you’re 4-1, things are looking great, everybody is happy, patting each other on the back and it’s all smiles and it’s great. We’ve been there. We’ve been there where we’re sitting around and we have a great record and things are just great and that’s the best way to have it, but unfortunately it’s not that way all the time. When things are not going the way you want it to go, that’s when you have to really come together as a team and say ‘look, this is what we have to do, we’re 2- 2 right now and the only way we’re going to be 3-2 if we go out and we play better."
