believe best bottom create distinct fans hard league line passionate positive sports winner
I believe (the NFL) is the best sports league in the world and it has the most passionate fans. Every place is a little distinct in their passion and when you lose, they're going to let you know. The bottom line for us is working as hard as you can, working together, and working to create a winner again. We do that and the fans will be passionate in a positive way.
available chart contribute depth limited numbers players special teams
It was a numbers thing. Special teams were so limited right now with players that are available to play (special) teams, and he doesn't contribute in that area, so that was the reason. It wasn't really for anything he hadn't done. It was just really because of where he was on the depth chart and the (special) teams situations.
seem solid strong
He's very good. Very solid in the pocket, very comfortable, doesn't seem to rattle, strong arm.
clearly integral player
He's a high-quality player and clearly has had a lot of years of high-level play. He's been an integral part of (the team) for a long time.
coaches exhausted forward goes last players practice quickly seems work
Coaches and players are pretty exhausted by this point, but you never look forward to it. You work so hard, and it seems like it goes so quickly and that last practice is on you, and you want it to keep going. You like being around a team. You like being part of a team.
spoken
I haven't even thought about it, and we haven't spoken about it.
changes four needs personnel present scheme system three whatever
In the present day NFL, you're going to have changes in your personnel every year, so your scheme - whatever it may be - is going to have to be flexible. You can't have a system that needs three or four years.
love wait
I love this position. I'll wait to see what occurs.
against great wall wins
In our business, it comes out in wins and losses. And if you win, it was a great decision. And if you don't win, it was not a great decision. And we know that our back is against the wall to win.
aware best certainly chance fight game giving lose order player talked
In order to have the best chance to win, you've got to be disciplined. If we lose a player in a brawl or fight on a game day, that's not giving us the best chance. If we lose a player in practice, that's certainly not giving us the best chance. We talked about it, and they're aware of it.
draft ended obviously players remember terrific wild
I remember more the players than all the other stuff, but it was a wild day. It obviously ended up being a terrific draft for us.
background believer creatively fact run steve throw variety ways win
I like Steve because I like his background. I like the variety of ways he's coached. I'm a big believer in the fact you've got to do it all to win in our league. You've got to be able to throw it creatively but you've got to be able to run it. He's had a background in both.
