Postgame – at New York

Miami Dolphins DE Cameron Wake (as transcribed by the New York Jets)

On his interception and sack…

We’re having a lot of fun out there. Obviously, I’m not back in coverage very often, so that was a new one for me, but the ball was there. I had to go back to my linebacker days. I put my hands on it. Other than that, it was just a game where a lot guys were making a lot of plays literally all over the field, special teams, offense, defense. We knew what kind of game it was going to be coming in. I think the guys prepared and we got a win.

On what he was thinking on the interception when the ball was in the air…

Just catch it. Funny enough, I work on catching more than probably most defensive ends, but you never know when that opportunity’s going to be there. That was kind of one of the mantras of this week is, you don’t know which play it’s going to be, just make it when it comes. Whether it’s a blocked punt, interceptions, sacks, you never know what it’s going to be. You have to make sure you make the most of the opportunity.

On what impact Miami’s pressure on the quarterback had on the game…

Every week I feel like, with the guys we have, that can be a tremendous part of our game—getting after the quarterback. Obviously, stopping the run and getting after the quarterback, playing aggressive, that’s always going to be at the top of our list for things to do on Sundays. This week was no different. We didn’t know exactly what type of front they were going to have. They had some guys banged up just like we do. Every play you have to beat the man across from you. Week-in and week-out that’s our mentality. I know I can speak for everybody, I don’t care who you put up there, we’re going to do our best to beat you. I think [more] times than not that’s going to be a successful play for us.
