Via Kuharsky, USA Today has a great quote by Freeney
“This game is about fight and experience,” Freeney said. “It’s tough for a guy to come in here in his first game. We were going to welcome them into the league the right way.
“Thank God it was a close game. If it wasn’t, and they had to throw every down, what were we going to do then?”
Mathis recalled Caldwell’s pre-game theme: Play smart, fast and physical.
