Danny Clark Quotes (18 Quotes)


    That's a tough situation to be in. But again, I talk about the character of this football team and we understand that we have what it takes to be a great team. We just didn't get it done the first three weeks. I feel like now is our time. I think across the board, man for man, it's finally sunk in to the guys. I think they will show up on Sunday.

    I didn't care what anybody thought. I knew there were going to be some who believed me and some who didn't. But for the most part I think everybody bought in and thought we could be a special team. And we're going to be.

    I think he did what he could. Ultimately, everybody involved didn't get it done. Unfortunately, this is a production-based business and if you're not winning the weight falls on someone.

    Fullbacks usually look where they're going because they've got a big block to make. That's something you learn in Pop Warner to read the back's eyes (before the snap).

    We made a conscious effort and basically stood up and grabbed the bull by the horns and said, 'We're going to be different, we're going to be better. It all started with the attitude of the players. We felt like we didn't play together as a football team (last year). We stepped in and people bought into what we were trying to get done. ... The guys who didn't buy in aren't here anymore.


    I can't put my finger on what we need or how many players we need -- I think we have the players here to get it done. There needs to an attitude thing that needs to be adjusted somewhat. But I love the character of this team. And I'll never turn away from that.

    I think those injuries actually brought us closer. It made us understand that we're one play from having a new guy line up on the field with us. All the young guys, they are like sponges. They listen to everything that we have to offer and all the advice we have. Learning the scheme is most important, and they have done that.

    I'm extremely excited. I don't see too many problems with the way the CBA was run the past 13 years. Now, it benefits the players as well as the owners. Nobody wanted to see it go the other way. Everybody benefits. I'm excited about it getting done. I was confident everybody would get it done in time. Better late than never.

    He's been well coached, in college as well as on our team, ... We all get together and help him out, and he's grasped the system fairly fast. I'm excited for where he's headed.

    He was just incredible. In six months, he won Australian championships -- he had phenomenal power and leg speed and his attitude even then was fight, fight, fight. He just went head in, straight away.

    My main concern, whatever front we're in, is to stop them. I'm fine with that.

    We were considered the weak link on this team. We kinda have a chip on our shoulders as a defense. People say we are going to score 40 and that we will give up 40. ... We're flying below the radar.

    I'm excited about having a coach. I'm even more excited having a former Raiders player as coach. He has been in that locker room, played for that owner and knows what it's like to be in silver and black.

    It's fun getting after a guy of such high status in this league. He comes from a great bloodline. Any time you line up against Peyton or Eli, you kind of want to step your game up. He's a darn good player and we look forward to getting after him a little bit.

    He's a smart guy. He's getting better every time he lines up. But he's still got some growing to do, and hopefully we can stunt some of his growth this week.

    When you make mental mistakes you give yourself no chance, ... Physically I don't feel like a team can beat us. It's about mental things. I take full responsibility on the play where 21 flared open and got that ball with no one covering him. No one is good enough to overcome that.

    We put ourselves in a position to go home victorious. We had a lot of people out there who laid their body, mind and soul on the line to come off that field with a win. I can't believe it right now.

    T.O. is more of a dink-and-dunk type of guy. He can catch a 7-yard pass and make it into 87 yards, and Moss is just going to run the flat-out 87 yards.
