running thinking games
I think that's another misconception, [that] our quarterbacks run all the time. Quarterbacks can help you in the run game, they complement what you do, but it's a running back-driven run game.
thinking play long
I think there's a lot of different things that factor into playing good defense, and you just can't say, "All right, if we just hold on to the ball long enough, we're going to play good defense."
thinking winning games
I think your goal is to win every single game you play. ... I'm not a guy that just puts a number on it and says we're going to do this, or makes a bravado statement like, "We're going to the playoffs and I guarantee it." I'm not a guy that talks about what we're going to do. I'm just, "Let's do it." And what it is is, we need to work extremely hard.
football thinking games
There's a lot [of coaches], and I think in this profession, none of us invented this game, we got it from someone else, and if there's an idea, there's probably never been an original idea in football.
thinking ceilings
I don't think anybody has a ceiling. Everybody can constantly improve.
thinking goal long
I think sometimes when you look long term, you kind of forget to take care of what you have to take care of on a daily basis. We're into short-term goals more than long-term goals.
hurt thinking nfl
It doesn't hurt me. I'm not governed by the fear of what other people say. Events don't elicit feelings; I think beliefs elicit feelings, and I understand what my beliefs are and I know how I am.
ball becomes cover defender defensive factor goal head league letting line matched near people receiver red shoulders smaller terms tight top tries
People don't know what you're doing. We can line him up at receiver and if a smaller defender tries to cover him, that's a big mismatch. You get in the red zone, down near the goal line, and he becomes a real big factor if you can get him matched up with smaller defensive backs. . . . It's head and shoulders when you say who's the top tight end in the league in terms of getting the ball to a tight end and letting him do some things.

That?s the type of kid he is. I?m sure somebody would have picked him up but that?s not what Jerry?s all about.
continue imagine season team time
I would imagine most every team would be in by the time the season is over. If he has the season I think he's going to have, they're going to just continue to come in.

Mike Boyle has really had a great spring so far. He?s really coming into his own as a wide-out. People forget he was a quarterback his entire high school career.
