bit game given mantra next passing step sure
Ours, given our circumstance, has been a little bit of a reversal. We have to have more productivity in the passing game to take it to another level. I'm sure their mantra is they have to take that next step defensively to get to that next level. In that regard, we are very similar.
athlete concert connection constant impact league management move proper pursue tried
We're disappointed that it went down this way. We aggressively tried to pursue an athlete that we thought would dramatically impact our team, and we did it in constant concert and connection with the league and the management council. We proceeded in the proper way we were told to proceed, and now we find out that the circumstances are different. That's regrettable, but we'll move on.

It was a great day to be a part of, to watch history, to watch that young man do what he did. We put it on his shoulders all week.

We just got to be careful now, we can't get him hurt. I don't know if that is something he and his people counted on, figuring great he signed, he will start. No he won't. I've got to find out where he is at (mentally) and ease him into it.

When a guy comes in late to camp, he quadruples the chance for injury because he has to catch up.

We have to correct the things which left us vulnerable in the second half of the Indianapolis game and the Tennessee game.

We certainly have the capability, no question about it. Those are our aspirations.
less optimistic
We're very optimistic with Travis. Less so with Todd.

We're very optimistic that Deion will be here. He's in good shape. I don't have to run him in a 40 to see he's OK.

We're very lucky to have two outstanding backs. We have a great deal of faith in Jamal's continued ability to be one of the better backs in the league, and we will continue to try to highlight that.
