You really don't know what to expect, but you see the numbers, you see the rankings, and that's all you have to go by, ... Obviously, the numbers were down last year.

More Quotes from Patrick Surtain:
It's just the second game. We don't feel like we're at our peak yet. But to hold a great offense to 17 points is something you can be proud of. But in no way, shape or form are we satisfied with how we played. We know we can play better.Patrick Surtain
I was just thinking about it yesterday, wondering if I'm going to get fooled or not, ... It's going to help me somewhat because I know what those guys can do and I know some of their releases, but they're in a totally different offense.

Probably Marvin Harrison. I played against him twice a year when (the Colts) were in our division, and the guy doesn't say a word. He just goes out there and gets the job done each and every year. He's not looking for the attention some of the other receivers are looking for. That's how you garner respect around the league by being a humble person and not trying to humiliate guys. There's competition out there, and guys are working their tails off. So when you score a touchdown give the ball back to the ref. On top of that he's a great player.

The Dolphins, who spent last week at the San Francisco Hilton after playing the previous Sunday in Seattle, certainly weren't overwhelmed by rampant enthusiasm for the 49ers. This is San Francisco, and they were a dynasty at one time, ... Yet you really don't see too many fans around here cheering for their team. I thought we'd at least see some hecklers when we got here, but that hasn't happened, either.

We have something to play for and you can't stop fighting. It's just a little piece of bread but we're still hanging on.
