I think Charles Woodson can do whatever he wants if his mind is right. It's according to what he wants to do.
I think in a certain system he can play corner. It's just a matter of in his mind does he want to play corner. He can play both, but I don't know what he wants to play. I still think he can do that (bump and run). I think Charles Woodson can do whatever he wants if his mind is right. It's according to what he wants to do.
I think he thinks in his mind that whatever it takes to come back, he is going to do. So, that's his mind-set. It has always been his mind-set. That's what makes him so special.
It was important that Mike get to kick those field goals. Our mindset was to get into field-goal position and let him kick some field goals.
He's got to get his mind mentally ready to play Kansas City. We know one thing: When he is healthy, we win games.
Our mindset was to get him in the game to kick field goals and he did that,
We have to figure out how to protect these guys.
We turned the ball over five times. That's one (reason). Two, I wasn't going to put that quarterback in harm's way any longer. Three, I wasn't going to send out our defense again by turning the ball over. That's my decision. That's what you do for your team.
When it first got started it was really the thing to be on if you were a player. I can remember when I first came in; you were excited about Monday night. It was a special deal and I think it still is.
We got our running game going a little bit, so that's a good sign for us. We ran the ball pretty good. Curtis had a really good day. He made some big runs for us, but we got behind and played that way. We could never close the gap.
We're going to try to fit him with a brace and see where he's at.
We're very glad we have him. He's a guy that's won a lot of games in this league. Players respect him because of what he's done, how he's come in here and handled the position we've asked him to take. Obviously, if something should happen (to Pennington) we feel like he can go in the game and play and win for us.
I've played that position. You get 10 interceptions in one season, that's pretty good. He had a great season for a guy coming off an injury.
It would be the first time he didn't show up for one since I've been here. The one thing about Curtis Martin, if he doesn't think he can help the football team, he won't do it. If he thinks he can help the football team then he will play.
