Postgame – at Buffalo

Miami Dolphins DT Ndamukong Suh (as transcribed by the Buffalo Bills)

Q: How did it feel when you saw the ball go through the uprights for the win?

A: At then end of the day, we got the win. We definitely made it tough on ourselves, no question, especially on the defensive side of the ball in the second half. They were just running the ball on us and we had to tackle and we really weren’t playing great assignment football. But at the end of the day we got stops when we needed to get stops and get the offense the ball back to make plays.

Q: What can you grasp out of their ability to run the ball on your defense?

A: Yeah, without seeing the tapes in my opinion they have great athletes over there and they put them in great positions to make plays.  It’s our job as a defensive line and a defensive front to hunt that down. Obviously we struggled with that in the second half. I think in key positions and key situations we got the ball down and the running back down enforcing the pass in certain situations and made plays.

Q: What was your thought process when (Andrew) Franks was lined up for the 55 yard field goal?

A: I watch him every Wednesday in practice and he knocks them down so, as long as he has a good clean kick he’s going to be fine.

Q: How does it feel to get to double digit wins?

A: Yeah it’s a tough situation when you start winning three but, it’s the position that we put ourselves in and we had to take it one game at a time as coach continues to preach and that’s what guys have been doing. Focusing on their task, doing their job and that’s it. And that’s all we have to do. We’ll make plays and the guys that need to make plays are going to make plays and go from there.

Q: This seems to be a real tight team, does this help you win close games?

A: Yeah I sent something last night to more specifically our defensive guys. At the end of the day, we can have fun, joke, be a tight knit group. But when it’s time to work, we got to work and we found a way to have a great combination. Definitely proud of the way that we’ve been able to do that especially as we move into the later part of the season, and that’s the right time to jet.
