RICARDO ALLEN, free safety
ON THE DEFENSE. "That defensive line, they killed it. Once you took their run game away, everything they were doing were third-and-longs. We had a chance to fight on third downs. That defensive killed it."
ON WHAT WORKED. "The communications, we even heard the defensive linemen calling out plays. The communications, we took it really serious this week. We said over the last couple of weeks we gave up things that we knew that we didn't want to. This week we took it for everybody to take pride and make our operation better."
ON THE DEFENSIVE LINE. "They did a really good. They dominated their gaps. When the ball came through their gap or tried to come through their gaps, they made plays on it. The communication was huge. If we can alert and talk through a lot of stop, we can talk through plays before it every happens."
ON THE WEATHER. "It's football. It was sloppy. It was bad everywhere, but you've got to still play."
JOSH HARRIS, long snapper
ON THE WET BALL. "We had to handle the wet balls and make sure that we were ready to go. We have to be ready to do it. It's been forecasted to rain since the beginning of the week and we prepared for the rain."
MOHAMED SANU, wide receiver
ON THE CONDITIONS: "It was real tough, but you just had to focus. Be a little bit more detailed."
ON PLAY IN NEW JERSEY: "This is home for me. This was a homecoming. I haven't played in Jersey since college. It was awesome."
ON STOPPING THE 3-GAME LOSING STREAK. "It was definitely big for us. Now, we just have to keep stacking them. Keep working. Watch film and fix the details."
ON THE SECOND HALF OFFENSE. "We had to keep chopping away actually. Keep chopping away and stay focused. You never know which play is going to be the big play because we have some many play makers in our offense. Somebody stepped up and make a huge play."
ON COLEMAN'S RUN. "I feel like Coleman's run was very huge for us. He a very explosive player for us."
ON THE RUN DEFENSE. "Our defense was phenomenal. They came out and played. They played hard, tough and physical."
ON WHAT HE SAID TO JAMAL ADAMS AFTER HIS TOUCHDOWN CATCH. "I was just having fun. (The emotion) was on 10. I was just happen to get in the paint and make a big play for our offense."
JULIO JONES, wide receiver
On the offense’s slow start and RB Tevin Coleman’s big run late in the game…
We just have to keep going. They have a great defense over there. Their front seven is amazing. We just kept going at them, just being relentless. We have the players over here to make plays, any given play, and that play [RB Tevin Coleman] he broke. So it was a great play for us.
On his 54-yard catch…
I’m just here to do my job for my brothers. It’s always good just to go out there to compete with them, alongside those guys.
On whether it’s important to have momentum going into NFC South play…
Going into next week is important because it’s the next game for us. We’ll get in there tomorrow, watch film, see what we can do better and just get ready.
On the adjustments he makes for a rainy day like today…
Nothing really, Just do what you always do, don’t go out there and make up stuff. When you go out there and start to make up things—start catching with your body and things like that [things don’t go well]. You’ve got to continuously stay aggressive to the ball, like you’ve done in the past and just go with it, just rock with it.
On WR Mohamed Sanu’s touchdown and how important he is to the team on third down…
Well not only that, just Mohamed Sanu as a whole, throughout the whole game. He did great things for us today, (he) made great plays for us. I’m very proud of him. Today, he stepped up, he had his number called, he made great plays for us, a great scramble play and had a big touchdown for us late in the game.
