bit bowl champions close definitely far friend goal last mine moves randy sit spent super time worry year
As far as Randy not being here, personally, he's a close friend of mine and we spent a lot of time together, so it's definitely a little bit different in that sense. But time moves on. We have a goal to be NFC champions and Super Bowl champions. We don't have time to sit and worry about who was here last year and who's not here this year.
air ball efficient exciting far fun move throughout
As far as being efficient and able to move the ball in the air like we always have, I think we will be. We've been doing it in the preseason and in the minicamps. I know we can move the ball. It's going to be fun and exciting to do that throughout the season.
check field mean move open shots
You still have to be opportunistic. What I mean by that is when the shots are there, we're going to take them. But when they aren't, I'm going to check it down and find open receivers and move it down the field that way.
good guy job move page understand
My job is to move the chains. If a guy doesn't understand that, he has to get on the same page as me. The good thing here is everyone understands that.

I have made a good faith gesture toward the organization by offering to move my roster bonus around if it will help clear more cap space to sign free agents. If I am not traded, I want to help coach (Brad) Childress make a serious run for the championship this year.
both good happy move opportunity
It wasn't that I wanted to get out. It's just, I think, for both sides, it was good for me to move on. Good for the Vikings, too. That's the way it happened, and I'm happy right now. I'm happy with the opportunity I have here.

Without admitting to the ridiculous allegations, I do apologize for any embarrassment that this situation has caused the community, the organization and especially my family. I can handle the personal accusations because I know the truth. I expect the legal process to clear my name so that I can move on.

Every now and then I try to fire him up. He really has started to show that he wants it.

The best way for us today was coach Tice calling them in. It worked for us and got us a good rhythm.

There's swelling, and it's painful, but I'm a warrior, ... I'm going to push through this.
tight winning
Not try to make mistakes. Just try to be calm, and play winning football. Not just me. Not just the linemen. Not just the backs. Not just the tight ends. Not just the receivers. Everybody.
ball field goal hands sure trying
Not trying to do too much at one time. Make sure that I keep the ball in our hands at the end of every possession: a touchdown first or a field goal or we punt the ball to them.
determination determined fix stay
I'm determined to fix it. One thing we've got to do is stay together.
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.
