carolina flying hopeful jon minimum ryan second time
Ryan Sims is going for a second opinion, flying to (North) Carolina as requested by (team physician) Dr. Jon Browne. We're hopeful it will only be a minimum time he's missing.
best coming game
That's his best game of the year, ... and he's coming on at the right time.
close environment forced might number people positions saw truth understanding
You saw what a real man's made of. There might be a number of you who don't come close to understanding what a real man's all about because you're not forced into the environment like people in our responsible positions are. But I think he told you the truth as well as he could tell you.
football win
If we don't take the football away, we don't win the game. That's all there is to it,
communication information system upset
I don't have any information. In fact, sometimes I get upset because I don't have more information. But the information and communication system is in the right hands.
moving ordering
I don't know what I'll do. I really don't have any plans. I haven't even thought about ordering a moving van.
almost chains fine game isaac move style
I don't know when Johnnie Morton hasn't been a No. 1. He's started almost every game he's ever played. Now, he's not Isaac Bruce, in that style of receiver. But he's a fine receiver, and you can move the chains with him. He'll make some big plays.
living people quote run wrote
I don't know who wrote that, but it's bull. You can quote me on that. Just like I was run out of St. Louis, that's ... people make a living on speculation. They're an embarrassment to the media.
changes defensive direction few gone money obviously players somebody spend year

black good job jordan left start tough
One was at least a pretty good call. Sometimes, hey, if you're getting beat, you don't want the quarterback hit, you take the penalty. But overall, Jordan Black did a good job for his first start at left tackle. That's a tough position.
aware far left totally
But we are totally aware of how far we have left to go.
chance concerned games history last odds past playing shows team until win won
We're not concerned about the playoffs. Right now our concern is playing well Saturday. That's all that matters. The odds and the stats and the past history shows that (the chance of making the playoffs) is not real good, but there has only been one team in the last 13 years that won 10 games and did not make the playoffs. We have a chance to win 10, but you can't do that until you win No. 9. For us, it's all about Saturday.
last won
Last year, we wouldn't have won tonight's game.
likely normally problem
Least likely normally to have a problem is the kicker.
