ball calms past settle sure teased
I've teased him about making sure he calms down, just plays. He's a professional. Past the first play or two in the ball game, you just settle down and play football.
almost ball bill blitz bringing drop good knew leave lined people pressured protecting seven showing throwing upset wind
Sometimes the idea of a blitz can be almost as good as the blitz itself. We pressured Bledsoe on seven of the first 10 snaps. I knew Bill Parcells was going to over-commit to protecting his quarterback, and leave more people in to block. So we started showing pressure and not bringing it, making the quarterback feel by the way we lined up, 'Here they come.' And then we'd drop back, and he'd wind up getting upset and throwing the ball away.
ball brought buddy caught corners eyes glenn hard hot left ryan tears terry throw
Buddy Ryan said it best. It's hard for a quarterback to throw with tears in his eyes. We brought the whole house. We left our two corners back. Bledsoe went hot and got the ball out quickly. Terry Glenn caught it...
ability ball damn david entertain gets keeping magic needs supposed sure time tricks
I told him we can get David Copperfield if we want a magic act. He needs to make sure the damn ball gets back there every time like it's supposed to. We're not keeping him just for his ability to do tricks and entertain the guys.
backs ball bring easy good guy job patience rare speed tackling
He's one of those rare backs that has the patience, speed and power-the whole package-put together. We're going to have to do a good job of tackling and swarming the ball carrier because he's not a guy that's easy to bring down in one-on-one situations.
ball danny deeper defensive guys injuries job last ready remarkable side time week
I thought Danny did a remarkable job last year, ... with so many injuries on the defensive side of the ball and how they impacted him. He did an unbelievable job of just getting guys ready to go week in and week out, and we're deeper now than we were at this time last year.

Everybody's super-smart. I wonder why anyone ever makes a mistake out there.

It's not about the chase of being a head coach. ... I really like what I'm doing, and I really like where I'm at, and I really, really like who it's with.
field improvement left nice plays room single
It's nice to see the way we're playing, but we have a lot of room for improvement where we think we've left plays on the field in every single ballgame.
blitz carry handle willing
I'm willing to carry a long-snapping specialist, yes. But he has to show me he can handle the full-out blitz that he'll get in punt protection. If he can handle that, we'll carry him.
coach head opportunity
I want to be a head coach again. I think I'll have the opportunity again. But that's not the most important thing. It's what am I doing, where is it at and who's it with? I really like what I'm doing. I really like where I'm at and I really, really like who it's with. I've got just about everything I want right now.
coach deal fantastic head leaving love people plans talk trying
I want to be a head coach again. But the big deal is I love being here with Joe. I think it's a fantastic thing. People keep on trying to talk about me leaving here, and I have no plans on doing that. I love what I'm doing.
bills coach game mind quit sideline thinking three tradition until
I try to keep that game out of my mind as much as possible, but as you can imagine, it's a big part of the tradition here. It wasn't until I had been on the sideline as the Bills coach two or three times that I quit thinking about it.
anywhere bootleg hands
It's 'boot-o-rama,' ... They've got every bootleg now that anybody, anywhere has ever run. So we've got our hands full.
