With this defense and the way that this division is right now, why not?
The day that they signed him, if I was a Jet player, I'd be like, 'OK, we're back in this thing,' ... At least they have somebody to rally around. If they win this week, which I think they can . . . maybe they get a little confidence and they'll start surprising themselves. That's why I say, 'Why not?'
My goal is for Gunnar to outlive me. That's the way it should be. My dream is for him to be a dad himself one day, so he can find out all the anxiety that kids bring to their dads.
It's an honor to support such a worthy program. TURF aims to protect the integrity of tailgating and to keep game day family-friendly.
Well, it all depends on how you, you know, perceive the religion angle. I always say to each their own and I'd much rather have a guy that's going to be preaching religion as oppose a guy who's going to be shooting himself in the leg.
You can imagine what a dorm room environment is to a CF parent. It's like, oh my God. It's crazy.
We're not splitting atoms here; we're trying to entertain people.
The question is do they have a conscience? ... I don't know what part of the brain controls that part.
Now, all of a sudden, he's thrown into the mess of quarterbacks that I'm a part of.
He wanted the ball more, screaming and yelling. Guys are trying to tell him, calm down: 'We're all in this together; your quarterback's hurt.' I mean, show a little professionalism, for crying out loud.
They'll be fine. As long as they play the Bengals every week.
If I want this particular guy, I'm going to go get him. If Brad Childress is a guy who demonstrates these qualities (inspiring players and attention to detail), I don't even wait. ... And don't pick off the pile. I'm not a big believer in settling.
I'd have more confidence in the defense than Jake Plummer.
I feel bad for him because he really had a fantastic season and he deserved to be here to accept this award, but with an injury of that status this is kind of the peripheral things that happen. I'm happy for him and I'm happy for Marvin Lewis.
