‘”I think it’s pretty much starting to define itself, and it has to because after this game it’s pretty much all downhill until Miami [the opponent for the regular-season opener],” Evans said. “I think what you’ll see in this game is probably what you’ll be getting. One of them will have to step up and make plays and that’s basically the bottom line. But I think it’s starting to define itself now.”‘

‘”It’s a situation you know you’re getting into,” Christie said. “But when you make it on the road and the whole stadium is silent, it’s just as loud as when you’re at home and you make it. Part of the job is coping with possible failure, and the biggest part is how you react after you miss.”‘
