coaches sees technique
That's all that my coaches are harping on now -- technique. He sees the will and the want to and the fight, and once that technique is down, then that's what makes the difference.
ball bigger box crowd deal help passing rather respect sure turn win
I'm sure they're going to crowd the box and not give much respect to our passing game. The first win was a much bigger deal (than the first TD pass). To get that first one is a big deal, I'm not going to lie, but I'd rather do the little things, not turn the ball over and help us win.
good knew knock shots
I knew they were good shooters, and that if we didn't get out on them, they were going to knock shots down.
believe confident display hard lose sight trying
I'm just trying to play my game. I believe and I'm confident in what I can do, so I'm just trying to display that to the coaches. Sometimes you find yourself trying too hard and trying to do too much. You kind of lose sight of what you do.

It's what we've been working for. We said we want to be NFC South champions. I don't know how many people outside the locker room believed that was possible.

Put this budget to a vote as it stands. It's the right thing to do.
clear gone good grew last might reason record school successful undefeated won year
I grew a lot. The reason I'm here is because of my record as a quarterback, especially at a school like Utah. It's pretty clear that if he hadn't come, we might not have won all those games. I might have still been a good quarterback, but we might not have gone undefeated last year and been so successful the year before.
chance easy feelings harsh helped kindness learn
I can't say enough for things (Tim) has done and the kind of person he has been, because it would have been very easy for him to have a lot of harsh feelings for me and he hasn't. He has helped me tremendously and this will give me a chance to learn more from him.

One mind awake can become stronger than a thousand zombies sleepwalking in a dying civilization.
football winning games
We had enough chances to win the game. In fact we did win it.
past looks whining
Stop whining; start enjoying. And when you look back at the past, make sure you're smiling.
