again couple drives fact field focused happen honestly hope last loss mind power somebody steps training
I can only hope that loss drives a lot of guys, ... I can honestly say that in my training sessions, my mind was focused on the fact that those last couple of steps off the field was somebody else celebrating once again in a big game. Personally, I don't want that to happen again, and I am going to do everything in my power not to have that happen again.
bring care goes players
I don't care who we bring in here or what players we have, everything goes through him,
ball field hold matter mind
But that shouldn't matter to us. If they get the ball on the 30-yard line, our mind-set is we should still hold them to a field goal.
box continue randy run safety sit top
If they are able to run the ball, we can't continue to do what we did with me kind of going to Randy and being over the top some of the time. You can't continue to do that. You have to be able to put a safety in the box to help. But because they were able to do what they did up front, we can just sit back there.
knows
Only Terrell knows what he is going to do.
attention attributes brings featured guy last pay physical plays porter randy saw though top year
Last year you saw Porter do his thing a little bit. He was the featured guy and he made some big plays for them . . . Though you have to pay attention to Randy because of all the physical attributes he brings to the game, you still have to pay attention to Porter, because the guy can still go up top on you. He is a big guy (6-2, 220) that can run.

breaks happened hoping praying training
Oh, yeah, a tad bit. To have the things that have happened this off-season and going into training camp, it has been a lot different than anything I've experienced. I'm hoping and praying that nothing else breaks out.
imagine push sure takes whatever
Mentally, I just can't imagine what he's going through right now. But he's tough. He's going to push through this. I'm sure he'll do whatever it takes to get back.
feet stations
One of our stations went 11 feet under. The other went 4 feet under.
happens hard intent moss possession ran route run top waiting
Moss is spectacular, we all know that. But with me waiting over the top for him most of the afternoon, you could see the frustration in his eyes, in the way he ran his routes. That's not something that happens with T.O. Every route run is hard and crisp. Every possession has an intent to it.
game last year
No year is a cakewalk. Last year, we just steamrolled through people. Every game is not going to be like that.
giving stop
We're just giving up too many big plays, ... We've got to stop giving up so many big plays.
gone hate somebody work year
I hate to go because somebody has gone down with an injury, but being the first alternate, that happens. This is something that I work for each and every year and I never take it for granted. It's an honor.
