I worry a bit about the chest that keeps recurring. He took a pretty good shot there and we have to get that settled down a bit. And I guess you can put the abdomen strain right up there, too. That's bothering him. I think the shin will heal up a bit, too.
They came in and they took care of what they could control. ... I've got a veteran group that is a pretty good example to the other guys on how to do this thing.
Even with the activities that took place last week, we gave Terrell every opportunity to avoid this outcome.
I thought about it, yes. There was a point where he was hurting after he took a hit. He tried to run and he took a hit. So I thought about it.
He made a heck of a catch down there for the touchdown, ... He came out and they were in a single safety, and he took advantage of it.
I have great respect for Dick Vermeil. He has watched over me and took care of me since I took the job here. They are coming off a tough loss to Denver and he will certainly have that team prepared.
I do want to make it clear that this decision is the result of a large number of situations that accumulated over a long period of time, during which Terrell had been warned repeatedly about the consequences of his actions. Even with the activities that took place last week, we gave Terrell every opportunity to avoid this outcome.
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 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.
We feel that we have the quality to get the three points and we want to win the group.
We have to give Lamar a chance to get acclimated. We will see how he progresses there and then we will get him in and utilize his talents.
