Mike knew what it was going to be like. He didn't play for Bear Bryant, but he played right after he was gone. He knows all about what Alabama fans want.
I wouldn't use them both at the same time, ... I'd alternate them, keep them fresh. It's a long season, and you're going to need the talent of both of those guys.
I got up and displayed some anger. I was sort of upset. Wouldn't you be?
No other league has had labor peace for so long. Tagliabue has managed to keep the two sides together, and they've kept playing.
Obviously the Dolphins are 0-4 and not happy about that. They haven't been able to put together any drives offensively. If they can get something together offensively, with the great defense they play, they've got a chance to win some games this year, and they've got a chance against New England.
We didn't win a Super Bowl together, ... and that's something I'll always regret, not knowing what that feels like. ...
The '85 Bears were a great football team and aside from that one game, they played exceptionally well all year, ... Denver at 13-0 was tremendously strong in all areas, too.
I don't want a player that's content with not playing, ... But we wanted to play the guys that got us here.
Here's one thing I don't think people know about,
He was a great competitor and what Dan wanted to do was win, ... and as long as he felt he was getting the right help from the sideline, he certainly appreciated that. I coached him 13 years of his 17-year career and we put up big numbers.
He didn't walk into a great situation. Mike's worked hard to get the program where it is now. I couldn't be more proud.
He didn't like any play-action, ... He liked to drop back and go downfield. Of course, we didn't have much of a running game in those years.
He is (happy). He likes Tuscaloosa. They enjoy it there. He's got two young girls and they've got a third on the way, they just found out it's another girl, so that will be three girls. He likes everything about the job.
