aware beginning behind certainly coach college defensive football head move open personnel position study talk time training worked
Not enough to talk about where it's going to be at the beginning of training camp. I'm certainly aware of him. I didn't study him out of college because at that time I wasn't a head coach and only worked on the defensive side. So I am behind in that regard. But he will be part of the personnel study as we move forward. Every position we have will be competitive and open to competition.
kick knew time
We knew we had enough time to kick it. It's the way it should have been. Thankfully, we have Jason.
great itself obviously position time understand value
We'd like to have him in, but we also understand his position in this thing. It'll straighten itself out over time one way or the other. We obviously value his abilities a great deal.
change direction hope install lean looking practice time
We are not going to install much here in a five-week period. We can lean in one direction or another for what is already in, but in a five-week season, which is essentially what we are looking at, you are not going to significantly change anything and hope that they can function. Our practice time is limited.
fast follows positions respect run scheme teaching teams time tremendous trust
He's been in positions with teams that run a scheme that I like. I've always had a lot of respect for it. It's specific. It follows a teaching progression, I like that. You play fast in it, I like all those things. I trust Perry. It's time for him. I think he'll do a tremendous job.
certainly free gathering invest money people time top
You certainly invest a lot of time and money into gathering your information, so it makes no sense to be free with it or give it away to anybody. Particularly at the top of the draft, people are pretty close.
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.
love wait
I love this position. I'll wait to see what occurs.
hard position stand steve
It's hard for me to stand up here in this position because Steve is a friend.
bit bring changing higher hopefully level push somebody start surface thinking three
We wanted a three-man push there, thinking that the three of them would bring the level of play up of all of them a little bit higher and then one of them will surface (as the starter). At some point, we'll have to start changing the reps, because somebody hopefully will take the job. It'll be interesting.
game grows player thrives
(Bettis) is the kind of player that the game needs, the game thrives on, and the game grows around.
gave
We gave them a game, gave them a little scare, but it wasn't enough.
hope quicker rises takes talking
You hope one of them rises quicker and takes the job. It'll be interesting to watch. We'll be watching, you'll be watching, we'll be talking about it I'm sure.
last needs plays though veteran
You have a veteran quarterback in Kelly, who is comfortable with his game. J.P. is a young quarterback and plays like one. ... He needs to be better for what he went though last year.
