It just shows the vulnerability of every franchise. I mean, one day you've got who you think is a franchise quarterback. And the next day, you're in a scramble to get one and solve the cap problems created by the guy getting hurt.
adjusting magic panic until
We're not going to panic here, ... You keep trying, you just have to keep adjusting little things until we can get 'em going. There's no magic fix. I try little different things, but it still comes down to we have to go out and play and execute.
athletic beaten group guys hammer match season
We didn't play real well all season and realistically, we should have beaten them twice. They didn't hammer us. We should have beaten them twice. I think Seattle's a pretty hard-nosed, athletic group of guys that will match up pretty well.
coaching ifs looking standpoint start throwing
When you start looking at the coaching standpoint with OT, you're throwing a lot of what ifs in there,
close control hard monitor outside taking
That's hard to do, because we don't control these guys' lives. But we don't want them going to any outside doctor. That way we can monitor what they're taking and we don't have any trip-ups. You really have to close up the circle.

The most incredible thing, ... is here I sit, and I've got four granddaughters now. Unbelievable! So much about it is really overwhelming. Imagine you've tried to keep an important secret over the years. What would be the worst thing? That it'd end up on the front page of the New York Times .

Kerry is evolving into an elite quarterback in this league. One of the top guys who is going to play this game. And as he goes on, there's no limit to him right now. He's come so far and handled himself so well. There's no limit. He's got tremendous talent.
bridge difficult figuring gap guys hard hold normal numbers players society team whatever within
I would say that whatever our numbers are, they're probably pretty much league-wide and probably pretty much society-wide. I don't think our team is any different from any other team or society as a whole. I don't think those numbers are out of whack. The hard thing is we hold these players to different standards. That's going to be the difficult part, figuring out how we are going to bridge that gap if these guys can't be within these normal societal numbers.

It's not a stimulant that's just in a few areas. It's in a lot of stuff. It's in cough medicine and some inhalants. I'm sure there are going to be trip-ups, because it's really hard to give a guy a list of all the stuff that it's in. That list would cover a lot of stuff. They just have to be diligent.
