knew pressure run since spread
We knew that was what they are going to do. They spread it out. They put pressure on you with speed. That's what they've been doing since they've had this run of success, but I thought we would be would be able to make them one-dimensional.
behind front hit people plays pushes reason run
Renaldo really pushes people around up front and he plays tremendously hard. He does a lot of things behind the scenes. There's a reason why our linebackers make a lot of plays. There's a reason why our linebackers run and hit as much as they do. Renaldo understands.
cut defensive guys hot last lay played remember run rush stop tub wrist
Remember last year? 'Gregg, you can't stop the run with that defensive line.' 'Gregg, these guys can't rush the passer.' I don't know why I didn't cut my wrist and lay in a hot tub of water. Every one of them played with an attitude.
attack few last point runs time
Physically, we're stouter at the point of attack then we were at any time last year. We've just had a few runs that popped.
allow cannot finish good hard plays running runs
If you could have those two runs back. But you can't. Normally, we take those plays away. We cannot allow those long runs on defense. We've got to finish those tackles. We did so many things well that we thought we had to do to take away a very good running game. Those plays are going to be hard to stomach.
running world want
Weve got to do everything in the world to make sure we kill Frank Gores head. We want him running sideways. We want his head sideways.
add best decide good guy maybe trying
We always look at that. A guy may have done everything before, but maybe we want him to be as good as he can be at one thing first before we add on. You have to decide what's best for him and best for what you're trying to get done.
coverage good job last offense stop sure task
The quickest way to stop an offense is to get to the quarterback. You can play better in coverage when you can make sure the quarterback is unsettled. We didn't do as good a job in it last time. So that's the task at hand.
games good guys practiced rest tried vet week work
We'll work him out, just because he's a vet who has been in a lot of big games before. We've tried to rest him as much as we can, but we feel good about the guys that have practiced all week long. If we can get him, that's a bonus.

We are ecstatic to have a coach with the caliber and experience of Jerry Gray joining our staff. Obviously, I'm familiar with Jerry from our previous years together and know that he's a great fit for our defense. He adds a new dynamic to our coaching staff and will help us continue to be one of the top defenses in the National Football League.
listening
But right now, I'm just getting things evaluated, listening to the trainer,
almost exactly expecting game kinds practiced weather
We've practiced in all kinds of weather. Today, it's almost exactly the weather that we're expecting to have on game day. That's good.
bunch catching created early
We created a bunch early in the year, but we didn't come up with the ball. Now we're catching the ball.
again behind captain coaching defensive good job lord week winning
I am superstitious, and he's been our defensive captain each and every week on our winning streak. He'll go with us (to Seattle), Lord willing, and he'll be our defensive captain again this week, and he'll do a good job of coaching behind the scenes.
