\u201cI feel like this is good, a successful Thanksgiving,\u201d said Settle, whose team has a big AFC South game against the Indianapolis Colts on the road Sunday. \u201cKind of goes into the weekend, having a good Thanksgiving, leading to a good weekend and leading to a win this weekend.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt just shows the kind of chemistry and unity that we have. We\u2019re a tight team. We love each other. We\u2019re really close. It\u2019s amazing to be out here and unify outside the locker room.\u201d<\/p>\n
