Quotes from coaches and players

Below are postgame quotes from today's Buccaneers-Saints game from New Orleans and Tampa Bay players and coaches:

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS COACH SEAN PAYTON

“First, (I’ll) congratulate Tampa. I said this to Raheem (Morris) afterwards – those guys played with real good energy and effort and did a good job today. I thought we did a lot of things that prevent you from winning games, some things we’ll have to clean up if we’re to have any type of success here in this second season.

“Our whole preparation was to win. There was a point where – and we had discussed this as a staff – if in the second half, that other game was out of whack, then we were going to back off and not get anybody injured. Our focus completely all week was to get our 12th win, just like we would any game.

(on how to have success in playoffs) “It’s playing mistake-free football, situational football, all those things that good teams do. We’re going to have to do a better job of it than we did today.

Quote of the day:

“It’s playing mistake-free football, situational football, all those things that good teams do. We’re going to have to do a better job of it than we did today."

This alone will take us back to the Superbowl.

I was surprised at how long the starters played anyway since the Panther game was over after the 1st quarter.

I could not agree more. Unfortunately we have not done this w/ much, if any consistency all year. Hopefully we can make the adjustment in the post-season. I don't doubt that we can, just hope and pray we do!

Most are saying we beat Seattle but won't survive the second round...

"had this been a playoff game – we would have had to play some of the same guys we did today."

I think he's BS'ing here. I hope that really a bunch of our guys could have gone, but were being saved for the playoffs. He knows which games count, and which ones dont. I hate losing any game, but thats me. Payton knows when to hold em and when to fold em.
