certainly choosing couple decision easier guys job last position recognized team tough unselfish
They are all very unselfish guys and that certainly will make my job easier (in choosing who plays). While it's a tough decision to make, they have recognized it, and, that position has epitomized the unselfishness on this team the last couple of years.
ben following guys leader leaders question role seven six team
Ben is a leader out there for us, no question about that. We are kind of following his lead. Being leaders on this team isn't just about guys who have six or seven years; it is the role that they have and what they have to do.
focused group guys stayed
We have a group of guys who were very focused and stayed together.
ahead best free guys left lose pick work
We've got some work ahead of us, there's no question. You just don't pick up where you left off. It doesn't work that way. We're going to lose some guys in free agency, probably. We'll try our best to keep as many of them around as we can.
coaches guys
We've got some guys who have not been there before, but we have a lot of coaches who have been there before.

I was one small part of this. These guys were so resilient.

Like I told our guys - this has nothing to do with last year.
football guys player seems stands together tremendous void
I think he's going to be one of those guys where the day comes and he's not there, there's going to be a void there because it seems like he's always been there every week. We've been through a lot together and I have a tremendous appreciation, more than I can express, for what he stands for as a football player but, more so, for what he stands for as a person.

Willie's starting again next week. He's our starter. I've got to keep other guys involved and I'll attempt to do that, but Willie Parker's going nowhere.

We have not played against him a lot. But I have tremendous respect for the guy. He's one of those guys who can literally will a team to victory.
focus guys maybe underdogs
Maybe we focus better. Maybe there's a sense of urgency. We've been the underdogs and our guys relished that.
against drive guys letting opening plays
Letting them take the opening drive right down against us wasn't very encouraging. We responded. We had some guys make plays ... (but) we just didn't play very well.
bit game guys longer obviously period
We have a 15-minute cooling-off period after the game and we obviously have some guys who could use a little bit longer than that.
