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.
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.
I feel great, ... I mean, I feel really great.
knows sit
I can't sit here and try to tell you what Terrell is going to do. Only Terrell knows what he is going to do.
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.
giving stop
We're just giving up too many big plays, ... We've got to stop giving up so many big plays.
game last year
No year is a cakewalk. Last year, we just steamrolled through people. Every game is not going to be like that.
definitely expect game gets
We definitely expect when he gets in a game for him to make a play. We expect those things from him now.
definitely depend dude guy miss pass rush stopping strong
We definitely miss him. He's a guy we depend on for pass rush and stopping the run. He's a big, huge, strong dude in the middle.
It's like we're classmates. But like they say, times must, and always do, change. If that's what happens, I go. I'd just like to know something quickly.
blown defensive game happens hard mental plan running start
It's hard to say, ... Some of them are blown assignments. Mental mistakes. When that happens as a defense, we're all beaten. Not just that one person. We have to start running our defensive game plan to perfection. Right now, we're not doing that.
against consistent game gave instead letting mental mistakes plays point pressure step teams trying
There were a lot of things. We were not able to get that consistent pressure that we wanted to get; teams have been doing different things against us and we have not made plays either. We have made mental mistakes and I think it got to a point where we were trying to do things instead of letting the game come to us. We were trying to step up and make a play and then we gave up a play.
anybody lightly team
There is no way in the world that anybody would take this team lightly at all.
