easier helped people pressure settled team trying
Everything has settled down. The pressure is easier to handle. He has people working with him and they're all trying to do the same thing. That's helped him a lot. Our team is better, so he's relaxed.
ball game mad move score time win
At the time of the game, you're so mad at the way the game is going, you want to get the ball back because you want to score again. And we got the ball back, and we did move it. You do everything you can to win the game. You think of situations.
confident guys handle players
We should be able to adjust. But they're very different in what they do. These guys have better players than other 3-4 teams. But I'm confident going in we'll be able to handle what they're doing.
appreciate love mike pushed
Mike pushed it and I appreciate that. I've always wanted the opportunity. I'd love to.
bay biggest coach football general good hard job knows looking operation ran ron tim worked
I think the biggest thing you could say is when he was with (Green Bay general manager) Ron Wolfe, he was very relaxed. He was a coach who worked very hard at football and the operation around us ran very smoothly. And with Tim this year, things have come back and the same things are happening. He's very relaxed. He knows we're covered, and Tim does a good job looking for players.
I can't really say much. What can you say?

We've been watching him for two weeks. We've watched all the film we can watch. We've practiced a lot. We'll be fine. We'll just see how it goes.
bowl number super
We thought we were going to the Super Bowl for a number of years.
ball runs stops
He runs the ball and stops the run. Now that's old-school. But it works.
tenacious
He's a tenacious competitor. He's a fly-around, knock-you-down kind of guy. He's really a hellacious player.
great job respect
He's done a magnificent job with all his guys, especially with Mack (Strong) and Shaun, right from the start. He's got a great feel for them, and they respect him very much.
He was like that here too in the beginning. But he's not like that anymore.
playing
He's playing now like he's in charge. He's not intimidated by a defense. He's intimidating them.
admire buy players
I admire him very much. He's so strong-minded. And his players buy in. That's why they are winning.
