complete played together
And when we've played well on offense, we haven't played well on defense. We haven't been able to put together a complete game.
gives might percent quite
Duce, quite frankly, might not be 100 percent this whole year. Jerome Bettis, he gives you something.
along best coming quite
Duce probably had his best day of work, but will still be questionable. Jerome is coming along quite well.
carry hopefully load practiced ready training
Duce is working this week, hopefully he'll be ready by Sunday, but he is not ready to carry the load and he hasn't really practiced even through training camp,
appreciation extra gives three
Even at the end of the game, you can see what he gives you, that extra two, three yards. I have so much appreciation for him, more than I can even express. We've been through a lot together.
home resting
Everything went fine. He's at home resting comfortably.
bit came excellent game last shape weight
There was a little apprehension. But he came in excellent shape with his weight down. He was a little bit better in the last game than the first game and I think he's getting better each day.
great process view
There's a great process here. It's a time-tested process. It's a culmination of a lot of people's view points.
change good ran reason
There's a good chance. He ran very well. I see no reason to make a change at this point.
chance good
There's a good chance he'll be able to participate.
adverse allowing composure crossed emotional fine half happened last level line lose lost move second settled
There's a fine line between going in there and being emotional and allowing it to have an adverse effect, which I think happened to us last week. We settled down more in the second half of that game, but we lost our composure at times. I don't want us to lose our emotion, but we can't lose our composure. There's a fine line and at times we kind of crossed that, but we have to play with that same emotion, that same level of desperation or else we are not going to move on.
enjoy game next win
Right now, we just enjoy playing. We're just going to go on to the next game and we're going to try to find a way to win this next game.
bottom game passing sync
Right now the passing game is not in sync and that's the bottom line.
biggest defense good half quarter second stepped until
Our defense just, they stepped up when they had to, they really did. I thought the biggest thing was the first half. I don't know if we got a first down until the second quarter because we could not get anything going offensively. So, when we come out of the first half to be up 7-3, that was a good thing.
