areas ask bit brings extremely field game games good guy obviously played practice ready standard
I will tell you that he always brings a standard to the practice field and the game field. He has always been extremely professional in those areas and obviously extremely productive. That is all you can ask for the guy to do. On the little bit he has played in the preseason, he is ready to go. He's been in big games before and he is going to his hometown, but I think you have a pretty good idea of what he will do.
dynamics games good run standing struggling
I don't feel we're struggling to run the football. I think we've been in some games with different dynamics where you weren't comfortable standing there thinking, 'I'm going to run it between the tackles.' That probably wouldn't be a good thing to do if you're down 17 or 20 points.
appreciate contribute difference difficult difficulty game guys immediate learning list outside overcome people players position problems rookie short speed steep takes talk year
It's just a difficult position to come into as a rookie and make a big impact. I don't think people outside the game appreciate the difficulty involved. I mean, you can talk about the speed of the game, and how different it is, but there are a lot of other things that contribute to the problems players have at the position. It's a very steep learning curve, and it takes some guys a year or two to overcome it. It's a very short list of guys who come in and make an immediate difference at the position.

It's a Monday night football game and a rematch of the NFC championship game that he didn't play in. He will be ready to go.

The one thing that you know about Terrell is that he loves to play the game, so he's excited to get going. This is what these guys strive for. This is what they look forward to. To have it on the national stage, it's a Monday night football game and a rematch of the NFC championship game that he didn't play in. He will be ready to go.
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.
board everybody game playing quite ringing straw team ultimate
I think we're just playing the ultimate team game and so everybody has to be on board. Specifically, the quarterback has to be on board because that's kind of the straw that stirs the drink, if you will. You have to feel that, it has to be ringing through. I didn't quite get it.
five games goes last rut seeing six somebody stuck
I called about the last five or six games of the season. It goes back and forth. If you are stuck in a rut and somebody is seeing something you don't see, usually there is a give-and-take of information.
competition football good
I've said this all the way along: competition makes good football teams.
conversation football heard million needed
As I mentioned, I never had a conversation with him about this football team. It was always about what he needed financially and money. I never heard team, I always heard me and I and 'I need 10 million dollars. I'm a 10 million-dollar-a-year quarterback.
displace guys handed learning natural pass
Schematically, because all he has really done was getting handed the football, he's still learning the pass game. When we displace him, that is not natural to him. (But) he's one of those guys where if you show him something, he's got it.
quite
Quite frankly, I don't think he wanted to be here anymore.
