We're going to have to work our way through that, ... It's going to be a big topic of discussion. We've got Chris here with a short work week, so we've got to do a real good job of evaluating that.
There are some real critical decisions we're going to make in that group. So we played them a lot. And hopefully the film will tell us what we need to know so we make good decisions.
I was very pleased with both starting groups there, ... It's still preseason, but we needed a good lift.
I thought Mark looked real good on Friday. But hopefully he'll be able to take more work this week. We'll need to start this game off absolutely sharp, playing against Tampa. They have one of the best defenses in the league.
Patrick is going to see that he made some real good things. He hit some deep balls and made some key plays for us, and that's partly what I'm referring to. And then he turned the ball over. We can't do that and Patrick knows that.
Just doing his part, ... He doesn't have to do more than that, you know. Direct it and get us points, but just do his part. I think one thing about Patrick is he's a real good student. I think he's smart. When you put the game plan in he has a feel for what we're doing there, so he only has to do his part. He doesn't have to make something happen by himself.
Jason did some good things and some bad things.
I was concerned. I wanted to see what happened overnight. He gave me a good report.
I thought the first part of the year, when he was healthy, I think that is about as good as I've seen anybody run.
When I told (my wife) Pat (that I was coming back), she said you're going to ruin your good name. After the first year, we're halfway there.
We're counting on Sean being here. We had a good talk about it today. We're both on the same page.
We certainly accomplished a lot this year. We were 6-10 last year, and the facts speak for themselves this year. We got a lot of good things done.
We have a lot we need to improve on, ... We've got a long ways to go. Certainly, I don't think anybody here feels like we're satisfied with our passing game or our rushing game right now, so I think you try to do a good job of analyzing it. But certainly our work, and what we're concentrating on, are ways to get more production. I would say across the board we need to step it up. I don't think anyone is satisfied with what we're doing.
We'll probably look at the film tomorrow and see some real good things, but right now we're our own worst enemy,
