Opening Statement: “We’re happy for the organization and happy to get this win. Like I said last night, we’ve been improving each week. I thought we showed that improvement again last night and we just have to stay on that track. It’s the start of something good and we need to keep our focus on improvement each week, which you can see and you go from there. We’re happy with Drew Brees’ record. We’re here at a situation with the New Orleans Saints over the last three years, where he’s broken a lot of records and we’ve had a lot of offensive records in this period with Coach Payton’s team and with Drew at the helm, so you just have to make sure you don’t become numb to these records. It’s an astronomical record that’s been held for over 50 years. He does a wonderful job and is a great leader for our team. Marques Colston, with his record for the most touchdown receptions and having the night he did after a slow start this season is good to see. We’re definitely on the rise and we need to keep it going.”

How impressed were you with the defensive performance in the second half?

“Our defense really stepped up to the challenge. They got pressure on the quarterback and sacked him five times. There were numerous times he had to get rid of the ball before he was ready and that’s a credit to Coach Spags (Steve Spagnuolo) and the guys staying with it. It was the first situation where we got another team in a two minute drill as well, where they had to throw the ball and that’s where guys are going to shine in their pass rush and they did, they gave us the pressure we needed and obviously it was a key to the victory.”

How do you feel personally at finally getting a win in the position that you’re in?

“I’m happy for the team. It’s not about me. I’ve said that from the beginning. As a coach, you look at the game and I’m glad we won and there’s always something that you know you can do better, so it’s never good enough and that’s where I’m at right now.”
