adjustment bit ending football good hardest offensive people point rather themselves

They want to make the big play, they want to just get to the ending point rather than working themselves through it. You'll see that a little bit with our new offensive guys. They don't know how hard it is to be a good football player. People just think it happens. It's hard...and it's a process.

We can run and we can hit people. I like that from (the defensive) standpoint.
