ability confident force hesitation huge impact lewis reckoned run taylor
We're very confident when Chester Taylor is in there and we have no hesitation with him. But Jamal Lewis is a force to be reckoned with, and when it's all said and done, he will have a huge impact on our ability to run the ball.
ability adjust asked asking defense embraced fits gone maybe ray suit
More than any defense we've had, this fits Ray's ability. That's scary. The 3-4 maybe didn't suit Ray as well as the other defenses, but he embraced it anyway. ... He's been asked to adjust because of what's gone on around him. That's asking a lot.

ability control eventually held holding lead others stem sure
Clearly, Kyle's ability to lead as a quarterback eventually will stem from his productivity. Like any leader, that's what he'll be held accountable to. What we have to make sure is we're holding him accountable for those things he can control and holding others accountable for what is going on around him.
assets balance capable nickel outside pressure talked talking
We've always talked about the pressure from the outside and contrasting that with Terrell Suggs . If that's a nickel role, you're talking 15-25 snaps. He's capable of doing more, but we have a lot of assets here to balance that out. If we can use him more, we will.

We both want that nasty, foul taste out of our mouths from last Sunday. All but early in the season, there's a lot riding on it right now.
coaching head hopefully indeed jim looking next seen supportive
We're going to be very supportive of Jim's looking and hopefully being able to procure a head coaching job. I think Jim would be outstanding. If indeed that doesn't happen, Jim will be back next year. Some of the speculation I've seen is just that, because Jim and I have already had discussions about some of the things we need to do.
We're getting done what we wanted to do, not withstanding the game.
ball defense dictates exactly expansion game good offense points profile run score special throw
We want to score more points, ... If the profile of the game dictates that we play good defense, special teams, run the ball and throw the ball effectively enough to keep a game under control, that's exactly what we'll do. Yes, we'd like to score more points. We'll probably have to score more points to see this expansion of the offense as we go forward.

We spent next year's No. 1 to get a guy who was ranked 10th on our board this year, ... What's that worth? Unless we wind up in the top 10 of next year's draft -- and we think we're going to a better team than that -- we can live with that price. This building is pumped. We've added to our offense and our defense, and we've got a quarterback we can build around.
process responsibility talking tired
The process is what I am tired of talking about sometimes, ... At some point, everyone has to take responsibility for their actions.
across based broad care class concern draft entire evaluation good guy looks process record tells track
This quarterback class looks pretty good. It looks pretty broad based across the entire draft. But I don't care how good an evaluator you are and what your track record is, you draft a guy in the first round, it's a crapshoot. It's 50-50. And that's the thing that will concern most teams. ... When one of us is wrong, we're kind of all wrong, and that tells you how iffy the evaluation of the quarterback process is.
