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.

I just sensed that we didn't have that same intensity that it takes to win, ... That concerns me a little bit because, compared to last week, where there certainly were errors, I thought we played with a great deal of intensity and passion. I don't know that we did tonight.
bad bring certain concerned demeanor developed disrupt good guy player team terms together work
Any player you bring in, you have to be concerned about team chemistry. It's not necessarily the guy may or may not be a bad apple. It's just in terms of demeanor and work ethic. We have very good team chemistry. This team has been together for a while and has developed a certain camaraderie. You don't want to disrupt that.
concerned consistent man spotlight
That's why I would be concerned with Cutler. He's a good, young man who is intelligent. But he's not really been under the spotlight on a consistent basis.
concerns game good intensity passion quite seem step team time
I told the team before the game they didn't quite seem to have the passion and intensity you need to have every time you step on the field. That's something this team is usually good at. That concerns me a little bit.
add beyond cut hard number parameters together
the parameters are set: Take number 21, take number 23, add them together and cut it in half. Anything beyond that is just hard to understand.

The players love his passion, they love his dedication, ... Rex grew up in this game, in as passionate a football home, a la Buddy and his brothers, as you could possibly imagine. Talking, arguing, fighting over football every night at dinner. He brings that passion with him, and the players respond to that.

We would argue and dog cuss each other about game plans every week. We would get at each other. In the end, we'd be bloody, but we'd have a good game plan.

There comes a point when it's just not prudent; too many bad things can happen, ... We have a plan to modify it if it gets that bad.

I don't respond to that. That's the most common observation, and I don't know how you quite substantiate that.

To a degree, the biggest advantage is you stay fresh and are able to tag-team the backs a little bit, especially late in the season.

We got a lot of work to do plain and simple. This bye week didn't look to be in a good spot when it first came out, but obviously right now it's what we need because we have a great deal of work this next two weeks.
