There's probably more (quality) linebackers than we've had the last couple of years. Some of those guys have had a lot of production, have had a lot of playing time.

Sapp is a big guy with a lot of power that's a real force in the middle,
ability ben good guy obviously reach receiver tall target throw tight type
Ben can run. He's not a (wide) receiver, but he's got that receiver type of ability for a tight end. He's obviously a big target. That's always something that the quarterback likes, is a tall guy that has a good reach and is just a big target to throw to.

behind everybody front guys leverage lose penalties side trying
Everybody that is covering, once they get behind the blocker, then they lose leverage on the guys that they're trying to block. The penalties aren't when they're in front of them. The penalties are when they're behind them or they're on the side of them.
close difference drive fourth greatest guy hard middle nobody run single strength third top virtually
The thing I thought was Jerry's greatest strength ... was his endurance. I thought he was a guy who was able to go hard and run hard on virtually every single play of the game. It didn't make any difference if it was fourth quarter, in the middle of a two-minute drive or the third play of the game. He was always very, very close to his top speed. Nobody else was like that.

guys heading quickly together
We have a lot of guys in that category. It could come down to some game-time decisions. But I think we're heading in the right direction. How quickly that will all come together or not come together, I'm not sure.

I think our best test is going to be in the kicking game. They have excellent specialist with their kickers, their snapper, their returners and they have a lot of really good cover people - guys that are very athletic and have been very productive for them in the past several years.

We played guys to get them experience, get them out there to play.
experience guys played prepared
We played guys to get experience so they will be better prepared to play if they are called upon.
geniuses guys looking players referred swing
I think, for the most part, you're looking at players who are in roles, or situations, as probably being the swing guys on those numbers. I don't know if the geniuses referred to that or not. Probably not,
assigned block defeat defensive football guy
What you need to think about it is, 'How do I defeat the guy who is assigned to block me?' That's what defensive football really is about,
eight everybody given guy however places run seven space
Getting all the run defense, seven or eight or however many guys, in the right places on any given play isn't easy. You can have everybody going hard, 110 percent, but if one guy is out of position, there's space there for the runner.
