division excited great last pieces relating running start title zeus
We are very excited to have Zeus back. His physicality and temperament is a big part of what we did last year, relating to the division title and what we did in the running game. We have all of our pieces in place, which is a great way to start the season.
chance enjoys football game last might presence veteran
I think he is soaking up everything, ... I think he has a sense of everything going by for the last time. He enjoys the game and he has that veteran presence to know, 'You know what? This is kind of special. There's a chance I might have been out of football altogether, so I want to enjoy this.'
felt last measure super team
Last year, we felt we were a Super Bowl-caliber team. I think in just about every measure you can put out there, we're a better team than we were last year.
anymore bring caught focus impart intensity last lesson lived message overcame reverse
We overcame it, so that's the lesson to impart to my guys. Not that they need to bring anymore intensity and focus to the game. Don't get caught up in the circumstances of the other team. That message was lived in reverse for us last year.
almost last singular view year
We view last year and this year as almost a singular process,
adjust comfort great hopefully last logical nice team zone
It's the logical choice. Kordell was great for us last year. A great team member, understands the role. Hopefully there's enough carry-over for him, verbiagewise, that he can adjust quickly. It's a nice comfort zone having him back.
hold holding hook last onto played possibly potential talking tells
That's that hook I'm talking about. Why would you not hold on to the potential for that for as long as you possibly can? ... These guys, the way they played last night, tells me they're holding onto that.
advantage intensity last momentum month taking
Sure, but just from the intensity of this game. Not taking advantage of the momentum the way we have done the last month or so.
both early foul last mouths riding taste
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.
anybody denver excited heard last listened pulled week win
They pulled clips from our last win here, and after the Denver game. We were excited to win those. Give us that. But anybody who listened to me all week long has heard me say nothing tasteless, nothing classless, and nothing disrespectful of the Titans. I didn't do it.
approach build couple expect good hitting last liked physical positive saw style taking talked terms tough via week
You saw a more physical style or approach in hitting the hole, ... You saw those good tough runs, taking a couple of guys, always getting positive yards, and that is Jamal's game. We expect to build on that with every week. I liked what I saw in terms of the temperament via particularly what we talked about all last week with Jamal.
best essence football last playoffs says since super talk team work
I think we're a better football team than we were last year, in every sense, ... This could very well be the best football team we've had since I've been here, which in essence says that we think we are capable, playoff, Super Bowl-caliber team. However, we did not make the playoffs last year. We don't have the right to talk in those terms. We've got a lot of work to do.
carry entire intensity last match momentum
It is always disappointing to lose, especially the last game. You have to carry that with you the entire season. We did not have the intensity and could not match the momentum swing.
bit certainly compared concerns deal great intensity last played takes
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.
