far game humming normally patient persistent running tough
Their running game can be tough to stop. So far they haven't been humming like it normally is, and you just have to keep them in that mode. They're very patient and persistent and keep doing it.

But we are totally aware of how far we have left to go.
brought far job playoff team
I feel great, ... But we've got to get the job done. That's what they brought me here to do. So far we've only done it once. And we should have been a playoff team two other times.

He will probably practice on Wednesday, ... There's still a little soreness in the knee. He worked out hard. But we didn't put him in the real competition as far as pass coverage, against man coverage.
broke defensive far football game games giving gone harder last reflection row team tribute week work york
We didn't work any harder or any different. As we said all along, that one game that we broke down last week was a tribute to the New York Giants, but that was not us when you've gone 20 games in a row without giving up a 100-yard rusher. The 20 was a lot better reflection than the one as far as the kind of defensive football team you are.

build cut cutting everybody few good job line offense offensive problem reaching running scheme shove underneath zone
The big problem with them is their offensive line and their zone scheme. They do an awfully good job with it. Everybody has a few zone scheme running plays. We do. But they build their offense on that. They get you stretched, reaching out, and then they shove you out and cut right back underneath you. They do a good job of cutting the linebackers off.
bolt credit guys hit lightning line side wearing
They hit him too many times, ... and that's a credit to those guys over on the other side of the line of scrimmage wearing that lightning bolt on their helmet. We just have to get better.

They hit (Green) too many times, and that's a credit to the guys on the other side of the field wearing that lightning bolt on their helmet.
situation wins
They just get him in a one-on-one situation and he wins that battle.
coaches job lose maybe players
I'm disappointed in myself. The coaches lost, too. When you come out and lose like that, the coaches got beat, and the players got beat. It's not just the players. Maybe we have to do a better job when we get up here.
plans send
I never had any plans to send him out of here,
