color deal honest jersey maybe
I don't think it's that big a deal what jersey color you're wearing, to be honest with you. Maybe that's just me.
anyone
I don't think it's any more than anyone else.
benefit case dealt fatigue great knows rectify year
I don't think it's a case where he has to rectify any one area. It's just recognition and being patient. I think that's the thing. He probably dealt with fatigue as the year went on, but I think now he knows what to expect. He went through it once and I think that will be great benefit to him.

For us to come in here and do what we did, it took a supreme effort.

For us to come in and do what we did today, it took a supreme effort in all three phases, and had nothing short of that today.
anybody coaches eight hard hit weeks work
I don't know when it's going to hit me, but a lot of hard work went into it by these coaches and these players. Eight weeks ago, I don't think anybody would have thought we'd be here today.
I don't know what I would say. It would be short, for sure.
available guy hesitant plan practice start time willie
I'd be hesitant to start a guy like Duce who has not had much practice time at all, ... You'd like to have him available if needed, but I think the plan right now, if Jerome (Bettis) can't go, well go with Verron (Haynes) and Willie (Parker).
guy hesitant nice plan practice start time
I'd be hesitant to start a guy like Duce when he's not had much practice time at all, ... It'd be nice to have him available. But the plan right now is if Jerome can't go, we'll go with Verron and Willie.
good great guy nose people powerful prototype recognize rookie tackle watch weight
Casey's the prototype nose tackle in the 3-4. He's got great balance, he's very powerful and he can move. He's down to the same weight he was when he was a rookie and that's good for him. This guy has recognition, not just for sacks. When people watch him play, they recognize how important he is to our defense, and what he allows us to do.
casey defense game good great guy middle rock sideline solid teams uses
Casey has been so solid for us. He's kind of the rock in the middle of that defense and he's a guy that uses up two blockers. He's got great balance, he can still go sideline to sideline and has a good feel for the game and understands what teams are doing to him.
barometer early game good
Certainly, ... I think it's a big game early in the season. It's a good barometer for us to see where we stand.
again danger feeling football improved team
Certainly, Ben's got to feel comfortable being out there and there are no restraints, ... I don't want to put him or the football team in any kind of danger if he's feeling that way. He's much improved from yesterday, but again it's going to be day-to-day.
ball concerned element throw true worried
But we are where we are. That's really the only true element that I'm concerned or worried about. We didn't throw the ball as efficiently as I'd like to see us throw it.
