difference five football good offense players
If we could get five good football players I'd be elated. It doesn't make a difference in what order, offense or defense.
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.

I'm not telling you that there are not some dinosaurs coaching in this league, because there is plenty of them - and maybe they do it a little bit differently. I just think the communication with today's athlete ... it's important that you have young guys that are able to talk to those guys.
places tape watch
I've got other places I've got to watch. That's why I've got that tape that I can go back in and watch right now.
daily dignity people spiteful treated wrong
It's important that you understand, if a daily 'hi' is antagonistic or spiteful then I must be on the wrong planet. I've always treated people with dignity and respect.

bunch gets guys hard played time younger
It's hard for him most of the time by the time he gets in there we've got - I don't want to say a patchwork offense, but he's usually out there with a bunch of different guys who haven't played together, younger guys,
both catch extremely miss
They both are extremely elusive. They are able to make you miss and they can catch the football.
good impression leave quality
We had a good visit, and we had some good talks. My impression is that they are quality people, and I'll leave it that.
