Adam's workouts and routines are kind of legendary. This is probably one of the best trained athletes on the league. He's extremely serious about football. We never talked any business until he felt comfortable about seeing how he would fit in with us.
A couple of times we make a mistake by being so aggressive, ... We come up and we probably had a chance to get the guy down, but we try to explode on him and miss a tackle.
Across the board, we need to step it up.
Something like that starts with me. . . . It was all of us together.
Somebody's going to get a real opportunity to play for us. There still may be a solid guy there (in free agency now or after the June 1 cuts) that we feel like might come up, but that's something everybody is concerned about.
Now I was joking, so I hope everybody in Dallas - because I've got a lot of buddies there - I hope they all took it as a joke. But to anybody that didn't, I apologized.
We appreciate Patrick's contributions during his time here with the Washington Redskins. Through this entire process we always wanted what was best for Patrick and in working with him we feel this is where he wants to be. We wish all the best to him and his family and his future with the New York Jets.
It is fun being in, I'll say that. It's a thrill to be in the playoffs. I really enjoy that part of it. From that standpoint, it makes the day much easier.

I think we've got a ton to play for. Each one of these games is kind of precious to us. We need to get back on the winning track. Everyone can count the numbers. We've got five wins; we've got five games left.
I think we take a long hard look at ourselves, and it certainly starts with me. ... It seemed like we were kind of all of us together on it.
I think all you can ask for is to have a chance at the end of the year. A lot of great cars still have a chance and we've got to earn it every week.
