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.
Every time he steps underneath the center as a young quarterback, he's going to experience some things. Obviously, this is one he doesn't like, this one the team doesn't like. It's a maturing process for him. He'll grow from it. We'll all grow from it.
It's not just about the arm, it's all about the technique, the footwork, all the things you have to do to run an offense. He didn't practice (in training camp). I mean, practice is practice. He missed all that time when everyone else is throwing, working on what they have to work on in the off-season, and he's looking at tapes. Every snap is important to this guy. He understands his position. He understands what he has to try and do.
It's a fun time if you have a job. It's not a fun time when you're a guy who doesn't have a job.
We're going to get a good football player. Last time I checked, I had a saying a couple of years ago that you play the game for one reason and one reason only. Right? That hasn't changed for me. You play to win.
We're in a situation where time is of the essence,
They realized what type of football team we are. We have to do the little things well. It doesn't look pretty all the time -- pretty doesn't win.

Kevin's trying to do a lot of things in the right manner, and you have to really allocate your time when the season starts,
He's always answered the bell. When you come out of the locker room, he's always the guy that's standing out there before the team and making sure everybody touches everybody. And this is the first time he touched a guy when he wasn't in pads.
For the remainder of this season, any time we are traveling as a team, we are all required to dress and act like professionals.
If God doesn't give you a real, real strong arm, and you have to stand there and throw it, you have to use your legs, ... still is finding his way in the offense. ... He missed a lot of time in the spring and he's playing his way through it.
The games are so close now a couple of fouls at the wrong time ... it'll get you,
We have to figure out how to protect these guys.
