ball good move passing running tight
Tell me what you want to take away. The running game? The passing game? The receivers? Backs? Tight ends?Where do you start? The quarterback? That is a long list. That's why they move the ball up and down the field. They?re good in every area.
care college game nfl passing protection quick run screens standpoint team
That?s the passing game in the NFL. It?s pretty involved. I don?t want to say it?s complex, but it is what it is. It?s not like college where they run quick screens and play-action. The sophistication of the passing game in the NFL from a protection standpoint is pretty involved. I don?t care what team you?re with.
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.

I think Doug deserves it. He is a guy that adds a lot to this game of football, has added a lot through his great career - running, passing and now kicking.
ball couple dropped game looked overall passing threw tom zone
Overall our passing game was pretty efficient. We dropped a couple of balls, and we were disappointed we didn't get the ball in the end zone there when we were down there. Looked like Tom threw the ball well, set up quickly, and got it out there.
almost clear game good knows needs open passing traffic understanding
He kind of knows the right thing to do without being told. He just knows how to get open and he has a good understanding of passing game concepts. He knows where the other receivers are. He understands where he needs to be, and when there are traffic problems, he almost always does the right thing to clear that traffic up.
best built felt good needs options passing production running
He has some experience. We felt like what our needs were and what our options were, that he was the best fit. He's had some experience. He's good running the ball. He's built like Kevin. Not the same, but similar. Short, thick, strong, legs, good balance. He's probably had more production running than receiving, but I think he can also be in the passing game.
against game matter passing running stop team throw whether
If you don't stop the running game, it doesn't matter whether you can stop the passing game or not. They don't ever have to throw it if they don't want to. To me, against a team like Atlanta, if you can't stop them from running, it doesn't really matter what else happens.
complement gains good passing rate runs short throw turns
I don't rate them, but he's pretty good. There really isn't much that he can't do. He's good in the passing game. He runs inside. He runs outside. He runs with power. He has a lot of speed. He turns short gains into long ones . . . he can throw it. I think he has a pretty good complement of skills.
element game graham guys overall passing runs tight vertical
Graham runs well, too. He can get down there. I think overall when those guys are out there, we have an element of the vertical passing game from the tight ends.

We were prepared to play him a little bit less, but he's in good condition. He was doing fine on the sideline.

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.
