happy next none performance team until wait year
We will wait until the end of the year before we make any determinations for next year. None of us are happy with the performance of our team this year. We're all disappointed. It's very frustrating.
born gary houston led level raised team
With Gary being born and raised in Houston, what better way to get this team to the championship level then to be led by a Houston Texan.
diego eight games next nine number occur recent san season swings teams
There have been a number of teams that have had swings of eight games from one season to the next and some nine games. The Colts had a 10-game swing (from 1998 to 1999). The most recent was San Diego went from 4-12 to 12-4 in 2004. Significant swings can occur like that.
concerns creates playing problem safety
It creates a problem with the playing field....So that's what concerns me, it's the safety for the players.
exciting obvious position spot
I don't want to be in this position again. This is an exciting time, but this isn't the spot you want to be in for obvious reasons.
accurate ball break great knew super throwing
I was impressed, but I wasn't surprised, because we already knew Vince was a great athlete. He showed a super arm. He was really accurate. He put the ball on the numbers. He was accurate throwing on the run, and he didn't have to break stride. It was a great performance.
forward gary
I look forward to getting Gary down here.
We thought that $100,000 or $200,000 wasn't enough. We thought this was more appropriate.
andre brian certain core given period protected tie time
We protected Andre Johnson, given him long-term contracts. Brian Cushing's got a long-term contract. Arian Foster. So certain key players, core players, we've tried not to tie them up for a long period of time.
approved concluded locker sure using
We concluded that one thing we can do is to just go through the locker room and make sure that if anybody is using anything, it's a product from one of the approved manufacturers.
agreement bargaining collective league limited player
We can take action with a player without the league taking any action. But all that we can do is, we can deactivate him. But we're limited under the collective bargaining agreement to four games.
grew looked neck radiation side worse
The radiation was worse by far. I had bandages all over my head. I looked like a mummy. On the side of my head and neck and down to my collarbone, I had second-degree burns. My skin blistered and peeled before it grew back. That was the worst part of it.
cap create people players room salary sign three
Some people said, 'Why didn't you sign Peyton Manning?' Well, we just couldn't do it. We would have had to let go of two or three of our outstanding players to create enough room in the salary cap to do something with him.
players role whether
Our players are role models; there's no question about it. Whether they want to be or not. They are. So they're in the spotlight. So if they do something that's wrong, that's in the spotlight, too.
