anybody ball certainly cover four giving hard help judgment overall passing plays pumps quick stands supposed team technique three tied timing
We're certainly giving up too many big plays in the passing game, ... Some of it was the technique ... our judgment on the ball, sometimes we just didn't use our help, or where our help was supposed to be, it didn't get there quick enough. ... Some of it is tied into the rush, the timing of the rush, when the ball is thrown. ... The quarterback stands back there and pumps three or four times, that's hard for anybody to cover those routes. We just need better overall team defense.
certainly couple draft extra far full move picks top
Having those extra mid-round picks in a full draft does certainly give you flexibility to move up in rounds. There's only so far you can move in that first round. From 21 you're not going to be able to get into the top 10, but you could move up a couple of spots.
ball certainly clock consistent control few gain game good measure number positive quarter question running rushing short third work yards
When you have the ball as long as we had (against the Jets), I think that is some measure of control. But we'd like to have more rushing yards for the number of attempts. There's no question about that. There were some positive things in the game about our running game. There are certainly a lot of things that we can work on. We'd like to be more consistent and gain a few more yards. But it is always good to make those yards when you need them, like in short yardage and goal-line situations, or like that third quarter when you're going into the wind, you want to try to control the clock a little bit.
case certainly decision few guy help kicking last offensive people player release spots
There certainly haven't been many times in the last few years where you release a player and say, 'Well, this guy couldn't help us. This guy just couldn't do anything,' ... It's more a case of you have a few spots and you have more people than you do spots. So then you have to make a decision as to where you want your depth. Do you want it on the offensive line, do you want it in the kicking game, do you want it in the secondary, do you want it at tackle, do you want it at receiver, do you want it at quarterback?
certainly improvement room saying
There certainly was room for improvement there. I'm not saying that was any masterpiece.
certainly couple draft extra far full gives move picks third top
This year, we have an extra third and an extra fourth. Having those extra mid-round picks in a full draft certainly gives you flexibility to move up, but there's only so far you can go in the first round. From 21st, you're not going to be able to get into the top 10, but you could move up a couple of spots.
bit catching certainly gave good lift next performed positive sure time
It was certainly a positive having him out there. I'm sure he'll play a little bit better the next time. It was his first time out all year. He's got a little bit of catching up to do, but he still gave us a good lift and performed well.
areas certainly consistency develop improve
There are certainly areas that you can improve in and develop more consistency (in).
best certainly challenge denver game last performance played time toughest
The Denver Broncos will be our toughest challenge this season. To have any chance, it will take our best game and certainly a lot better performance than the last time we played them.
block certainly corner deal focus good outside run side throw
They have good players. Not just (Stroud and Henderson), but certainly they're a big focus of it and they're right in the middle. You have to deal with them every play. It's not like you have a corner where you can throw to the other side or you have an outside linebacker (where) you can run away from him. It's two tackles. There is no play where you can run that you don't have to block them.
certainly decisions playoff surprised
There were certainly some very questionable decisions in that game. I'm surprised that was a playoff crew.
certainly coach mistakes
There were still a lot of mistakes and a long way to go, ... but certainly it was something to coach off of.
certainly football plays
As a football team, they completely outplayed us tonight. They made the plays and we certainly didn't make them.
certainly half helped penalties second work
Penalties in the second half certainly helped us out, and we got a big turnover from Vince. Overall, it's the first game, and we've got a lot of work to do in all areas.
