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.
ball clock control goal good hope job line quarter running short situations third yards
It?s always good to make those yards when you need them, like in short yardage and goal line situations or like that third quarter (against the Jets) when you're going into the wind. You want to try to control the clock a little bit. Those are important yards, too. I think we can do a better job in running the ball than we did. I hope we can.
ahead clock everybody fast rolling run second start sure three whatever
They're ahead of everybody by two or three touchdowns. Being able to withstand the onslaught in the first quarter, the first half, whatever it is, it sure is going to be important. . . . They get off to a fast start and they keep it rolling and they just run out the clock in the second half.
almost changed clock far field great huge laid overthrow position ran run supposed throw tom
He made a great catch. That was a huge play. Changed the field position, put us in position to run the clock out. ... He did what he was supposed to do. Tom read it, laid it out there, and Bethel ran it down. I mean, we always tell Tom just throw it out there as far as you can and make him run for it. He can't overthrow him -- he almost did -- but Bethel ran it down.
bit fine good prepared
We were prepared to play him a little bit less, but he's in good condition. He was doing fine on the sideline.
fine last missed
We missed you earlier. We're going to fine you for that, take it out of your last check,
address advantage attack extra improve last repeatedly six teams terms time tried trying week
We?re going to try to take advantage of the extra time this week in terms of meetings, and trying to go through some things we feel like, the last six weeks, teams have repeatedly tried to attack us. Those are things we can address and try to improve on.
approach normal terms treating week year
We're going to approach this as a normal week. We're treating this week just like every other week this year in terms of our preparation for the game.
against bay best bit decisions evaluation everybody final game giants green players quite ready sure younger
I've told everybody to be ready to go. I'm sure that we'll look at some of the players that didn't play as much in the Green Bay game a little bit more against the Giants and try to get the best evaluation that we can as we make our final decisions at the end of the week. I'm sure that the younger players and the players who didn't play as much against Green Bay will play more than the ones who did play quite a bit against Green Bay. Let's put it that way.
contract talked
I've talked to Ty, but we never talked about any contract or anything like that.
game genius heard
I've been in the game for a while. I've heard 'Belichick' and 'genius' together. I've also heard 'Belichick' and 'moron' together.
calls game hard time
It would be hard for me to tell Eugene what he did wrong. There were a lot of calls in that game I'd have a hard time explaining.
best both decided exactly good kevin players productive running situation solid sure work
The running back situation is a good, competitive one. I think Antowain and Kevin are good players, have good, solid strengths. I think both of those players are going to be productive for us. They have been in the past. How exactly it's going to work out, I don't know. I'm sure it will be decided on the field. We'll do what we think is best for the team.

Eric worked his way from the most entry-level position to a position of great responsibility during several successful seasons. The opportunity Eric has now earned is truly an example of good things happening to a good, hard-working person and I wish him well.
