"It's not like when a play breaks down, he's looking to scramble. He's looking to keep the play going by passing it with a pass downfield. He does an excellent job there because that puts continued pressure on the defense."
"There were times we had Marvin Harrison at Indy where he might have only caught a couple balls in game, but obviously at the end of the season, he was a huge impact on what we did as well. It goes that way sometimes."
