We tried a couple of things throughout the week. It ended up with Coach Tice doing it. Coach Loney was up in the booth, calling plays down. He is always bringing up good ideas and he is the (offensive coordinator). But the best way for us today was Coach Tice calling them in. It worked for us and got us in rhythm.

I don't know him personally, but as a player, he's a great player. He's worked very hard to get where he is, obviously, and I wish him the best of luck. That's what I told him today -- 'best of luck in everything you do.' I know I'll be seeing him and just keep doing what you do.
best career everybody forward good greater halftime knows looking minnesota played seven team wins
I kind of feel like, it's halftime in my career right now. Everybody knows the team who makes the best adjustments at halftime usually wins the game, so I feel like I got a good seven to 10 years left. I played seven years in Minnesota and I am looking forward to even better, greater seven years down in Miami, back home. It's great.

Without the turnover it would have been perfect. One thing I'm really excited about that we did, is we came back the next drive and put seven on the board. We're really happy about that for the first offense.
