I learned a lot about receivers working with him and likewise. We tried to talk a lot about defensive backfield play as he was teaching the receivers how to beat the techniques that they were using, that type of thing.
We talked last week about (Randy) Moss being in a special category offensively for the Raiders. You've got to put Peppers in that same category defensively,
I've talked to Ty, but we never talked about any contract or anything like that.
You would have to talk to the Jets. I have no comment on their job or their situation or anything else. Anything they have to say about it, I'm sure they would be more than happy to give you that information.
We'll take a look at Tom's situation and we'll make an evaluation there. We'll talk about that and make the decision later on in the week. We'll just have to wait and see.
It's just an exchange of information with somebody that you have common ground with, ... You talk about things that are successful, and sometimes that has an application to what you're doing.
It's pretty ridiculous. I don't know (why someone would say that). Talk to whoever thinks that. ... Go talk to the teams that have lost to them and see what they have to say.
There is no new system in place. I don't know what you're talking about.
When I was out there, I really enjoyed talking to Al,
Because the offense usually extends a little bit to try to take care of him, they like to bring the linebackers and blitz them up inside. As the line widens to give attention to Peppers, that opens up a lot of the inside pressures for them. We talked about last week (Oakland receiver Randy) Moss being kind of in a special category, offensively, for the Raiders. I think you have to put Peppers in that same, whatever category that is, defensively.
He's getting better. I just talked to him, he's feeling better. He's a looking better, he's a lot better than he was last week.
How will it be going forward? We'll just have to see how that all plays itself out. That's something we'll talk about later on depending on what the situation is.
Unlike most other interviews that you have, you usually don't talk that much technical football with an owner.
I support whatever Tedy does 100 percent. He's part of the family. We all love him. The comments that he made are consistent with what we talked about in the past, so we're going to proceed on that course.
