early ended four last less parts purpose season wholesale year
We didn't make wholesale changes, ... There are less new parts than before. Everything we're doing, we're doing with a purpose. That's the way we ended last year with our last four games. I didn't feel like that early in the season last year.
allowed atlanta last pull
You are allowed to pull as long as you are going forward. They allowed Atlanta to do it last week.
changes couple defense gotten last personnel problem
That's been part of our problem on defense the last couple years that we've had so many changes in personnel that no one has ever gotten comfortable with anybody,
came last played proud team
I was proud of the team in the way they came back from last week, and we played well in a lot of areas.
care compared couple drafted evident football forget good himself last matured order people taking understanding year
I think he's really matured this year, compared to his first couple years. We drafted him when he was a junior. People forget that he was (21) years old. I think he's really matured the last couple years, but this year it's evident by his play and taking care of himself and understanding that, in order for him to be a good football player, he has to take care of himself on and off the field.
defense ended guys hopefully last pick simplify tried
We put in new guys last year. We tried to simplify some things. Hopefully this defense can pick up where it ended last year.
city football gone last team
But, again, everything that has gone on with the city and this football team the last two weeks, that's probably the least of our concerns.
decided hard last next sit year
Last year was a hard year on myself and all the coaches, and really the whole city. So I decided that if I didn't get a job, or the right job, that I would probably sit out a year and see if I could get back in the next year.
camp draft enthusiasm everybody familiar good guys including key last needed taking
To get off to a good start, we needed everybody in, including our draft picks. We wanted to get the new guys and the young guys familiar with what we are doing, ... Really, we wanted the enthusiasm taking off from where it was last year, so it was a key thing that we got everybody into camp on time.
bad cut few last played traveling weeks
We've got to cut those things out. Let's not make excuses. Us traveling the last few weeks really don't have anything to do with our play on the field. We've played bad the last two weeks.
felt fired last urgency
We were fired up all week. You could feel it. You felt it on the bus. You could feel it last night. Hopefully, we can keep that sense or urgency all year.
atlanta brought extremely guy last learn safety sign special teams
We wanted to sign him last week, but we couldn't find a roster spot. He's a guy that's extremely fast, very smart. He'll know Atlanta (this week's opponent) a little bit, but we brought him in to play special teams and learn the safety spot.
against atlanta bad block call england exactly field goal last played ran run shame took tried week
It's a shame because I thought that we played well enough to win, ... That last play of the game, and the call by the official, was a bad call. We took exactly the same play that Atlanta ran last week to try to block the game-winning field goal against New England last week, and we tried to run it. They didn't call it last week against Atlanta.
