Q: How is Deion Branch?

BB: I think Deion is OK. He told me he could go back into the game but I didn't want him going back in during the second half. We'll know more later. You'll have to ask him.

Q: Can you talk a little bit about Corey Dillon, especially his early success?

BB: I thought Corey ran hard. He got a lot of yards on his own. I thought the blocking was good up front. We blocked some good holes for him. He ran hard and he moved the pile and broke some tackles. I thought it was a really good effort out there today. He's carrying a lot on his shoulders.

Q: In a league where there is so much parity, and you see good teams stumble in a given week, can you point out two or three keys for how you keep this streak going?

BB: I don't know. We're just trying to win the game. It's not about last week or any other week. We're just trying to win a game here. Arizona has an athletic defense; they're a turnover team. They had three turnovers last week against the Rams, and probably should have had a fourth one that got called back. We knew that coming in and tried to neutralize that.

Q: Do you guys ever talk about the streak?

BB: What streak?
