bring coach further guy help knows playing younger
He knows that if he was playing corner, these are the things he would be doing. Now he's got a younger guy that he can he help out and bring further along. It's like I have a coach on the field.
five guys run steps wilson
I've been here five years and I know the guys so I don't have to re-evaluate anything, we would just have to take off and run from there. You don't want to take steps backward, you want to take steps forward, and that's what Mr. Wilson has been doing.
guy puts trust
Because if you trust that guy and he has the capabilities and puts in the work, he's going to trust you more and more. I always feel like the more suggestions I take from the players, the more film they'll watch. If they know it's an open-door policy, they'll use it.
decide felt fooling line mistakes people
I've always felt like you want to do things to make the quarterback uncomfortable in there. But there's a line there between fooling him and fooling you. Mistakes are touchdowns, so you have to look at your people and decide what you can do, how much you can do.
players
I think players like to play that way,
Yeah, that's a lot of Aggies, ... but I don't know what I'd do without them.
defensive elsewhere letting means permission plans somewhere sure
I don't think so. If you're a defensive coordinator and they want you, they're not going to give you permission to go somewhere else. ... So I'm pretty sure that means they're letting you go be a D coordinator elsewhere because they've got other plans here.
bad best defense hard players plays pride
One thing I pride myself on his how hard our defense plays and how bad the players want to be the best in the league.
advice parents saying talk teachers
My advice to other parents is to talk to their kids. Talk to their teachers and see what they're saying and what they're doing in schools.
bowl gets guy hard pro talking winning
It's always like that. When you've got a guy that gets double-digit sacks and you're not on a winning team, it's hard for them to put you in the spotlight. But they're not talking about your team, so it's hard for him to get Pro Bowl recognition.
account challenge defense guy guys last pound ready small stop
They can come at you in different ways. You've got a guy like Dunn who is small but has a lot of speed. Duckett is a big guy who can pound it between the tackles. And of course, you have to account for Vick. It's going to be a challenge for our defense to stop these guys. After last week, I think our guys will be ready to play better than they did in Tampa.
defense
There were a lot of things that went on that you have to take into account. But if you have the No. 2-ranked defense two years in a row, that's not a fluke.
belief care coaches guys job tackling talent techniques tools understand
The big thing about open-field tackling is you've got to have a belief that you can get it done, and they've got it. Those guys understand that the coaches are going to give them the right techniques and tools to get their job done. Then they can let their talent take care of the rest.
guys
This is different . . . a little amazing. You've got to get to guys and try to find a job. It's a little humbling.
