We feel bad from a team standpoint for Todd. He worked very hard this offseason. He was having a heck of a camp, and its a shame this happened.
It tightened up a little bit toward the end of practice yesterday and I pulled him out of that second practice. He's just getting back in the swing of things. It's not near as bad as it was when he left but I just don't want to take any chances. It would be nonproductive.
We knew he was hurt, but it was not nearly as bad when he was playing as it was when he woke up (Tuesday) morning. It stiffened up on him. But he felt comfortable playing.
We understand it's never as good as you think and never as bad as you think in this league. Mike Nolan's putting together a football team right now, working his tail off to get that thing right. He's got a bright future ahead of him.
There were some good things and there were some bad things. I think today there were a few more good things.
There were some good things and some bad things in this game. We're going to take both and learn from them and get ourselves ready for this weekend when San Francisco comes here.
The bottom line is, as bad as it seems today we are two games out of first place in the NFC East, ... We have a great opportunity to go forward here and put the remaining part of this season together in a plus manner.
He was hurt before he left and is still bothered by that groin. It's not near as bad as it was, but I don't want to take any chances. It would be nonproductive.
I knew he was hurt. It wasn't nearly as bad (Monday) night when he was playing as it was when he woke up (Tuesday) morning. It kind of stiffened up on him. He felt comfortable playing. He never said a word about it. He just went out and did his thing.
You don't let it be a distraction. That is not what you do. There are going to be things that happen and you don't focus on those things. You focus on getting the football team ready to play and you handle the other things up front the way we do it.
We're going to see how he does here in the next couple of days and how it reacts to treatment. It's that same type of pain that he's had. It's going to flare up. It's done that throughout his career and it's going to continue to do that. We just have to monitor it and see how he does.
We're going to do what we think will get us a win.
We can do a better job there. We will continue to look at that. We have to do a better job.
We feel that we have the quality to get the three points and we want to win the group.
