injury miss saw sure throwing throws wish
When I look at that, I don't see that. Did he miss some throws that he should have made? Sure, and I'm sure he will tell you that as well. I don't see where that injury is doing something specifically to his throwing mechanics. I wish I could tell you I saw that.
fresh guys legs spread
We've always spread it around. All the guys give you a little something different. And I think fresh legs are important.
backup battles bring ends extremely good great group since smart tight
Those are great battles at the backup tight end positions. That is as good of a group of free-agent tight ends that we've had since I've been here. They all bring a little something different to the table. They're all extremely smart and don't make errors. Most of them are good special-teams players.
game knock needs opportunity plan ready specific taking time
We don't have a specific time targeted. He is taking reps out there and is in all the game plan meetings. That opportunity will knock at some time and he needs to be ready when it does.

At a fast rate, he's putting what he learns into play. Every play he learns something new. ... All of the physical attributes are there. He has speed and quickness. He has good hands. He can put what's in the classroom on the field. He can make you miss. So, yeah, he's got the whole package. When it starts to slow down for him a little bit, then you'll see all of his God-given athletic ability come out.

defense giving guys heading involved landmark opposed path seeing steps thinking time
You see it with all the guys that are in their first time with this offense. You can't be thinking a lot. You want to just be reacting, heading down your path and seeing what the defense is giving you, as opposed to thinking about what steps you have to take and what your landmark is and how you're involved in the protection.

This is the plum job out there, without a doubt, hands down. Nine out of 10 people will tell you that. The ownership here showed me how committed they are.
defense element people team tied
I think that every defense has some element of it. Some people have more tied into it as a staple. This would be one team that is tied into it as a staple.
along brian coming evolution menu moving package small
I think there is a menu of things he does very well and I think there are things that he is coming along at. Really, it's an evolution with those guys. Brian Westbrook we had a small package for when he was a rookie. So, it's moving along and he is doing all right.
cannot goes jim knowledge regardless seen within
Jim Mora has an idea of what he can and cannot do... He has a firsthand knowledge of that, regardless of what he has seen on tape... He's seen him day-to-day for years. I think it goes back to them and how they want to play him. We'll play him the same way we usually do within the system.
based believe control franchise guy injured loses opening position
I said in my opening comments... he's a franchise quarterback, and I don't believe a guy loses his position based on injury. So the first thing is, he doesn't need to be injured anymore. He's got to rehab. He's got control over that. I don't have control over that.

It changes it for them. It doesn't change things for us.
