Is it going to bug him here for a little bit? ... Yes, probably. Will the bye week (after the Dallas game) help? Probably. But I can't tell you that this far in advance. Donovan's a pretty straightforward guy. Certain guys, you can talk to about (injuries) and they will tell you what's up and if they can go or not go. Donovan's one of those guys.
Even though it might be game five, six, somewhere in that area, I think that gives him enough time (to return), unless there are setbacks. We don't know. We think in talking with the doctor he'll be fine. He feels good. We'll see when he gets up here and he starts doing some of the work.
I didn't listen to the whole interview, obviously. I don't think any of us did. I take care of those things in-house. I don't take it out to the public and do that. You guys know that. That's the way I'll handle this. It'll be in-house business. I obviously will address the player and those people that I need to talk to, and we'll work this thing out.
I did not talk to him. But I'm not going to go into all that.
Mobility was a factor, ... We thought that if (McMahon) got into trouble, he could gain some yards with his feet. ... He did a good job. I have not had a chance to talk to the coaches and the players about it so I am not going to say something here.
I did have a visit with him and it went well. We mainly talked about football. He was anxious to get back out here and get himself going and playing and catching up on the things that he missed. But he did a good job today.
We are going through and talking about all that. It does concern me. I think that field position is a big thing. We can do better there, so we will look at that closely.
T.O. has friends on the team, so they're going to feel for T.O. and like him. I expected guys to come talk to me. Jeremiah, being one of the leaders, did that. I didn't have a problem with it.
(Owens) doesn't let all that (talk) bother him. Every week people try to taunt him. He just plays. He doesn't talk out there and all that kind of stuff.
I think, by talking to the doctor, that he will be fine and he feels good. We will see when he gets up here and starts doing work.
I take care of those things in-house. I obviously will address the player and those people I need to talk to and work this thing out.
When all is said and done, people really don't care whether you ran or threw the ball. They care about winning and losing. We're going to try to do what's working for us and do the best way can.
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.
I've said that from the beginning. Both of them are good people.
