came game including knew workout
Right before the game he came in and said his workout went well. We knew he would be limited, but he made some big catches, including a touchdown. We used him sparingly, but he was effective.
beat goal knew
My goal was not to have any turnovers tonight. I knew that's what it would take to beat these guys. It was a disappointing play.
clear crisis few growing guys knew victory
I feel like we're growing as a team. I feel like we've got guys who didn't panic, who didn't go into crisis mode. We just knew we had to clear a few things up and we'd get a victory this weekend, and we did it.
close definitely felt guys knew looking people shot situation three took
I was definitely looking for the first down first, ... I knew the situation and felt anything that was close to getting a first down was covered. They had some people on Randy, two or three guys on him every play. J.P. was on the safety, so I took a shot at it.
ball beat goal knew rid throw
I didn't see him. I was just about to get rid of the ball and throw it away, and I got hit. My goal was not to have any turnovers . . . because I knew that's what it would take to beat these guys. It was a disappointing play.
guys
We showed a lot of heart. We showed a lot of character, ... We should have won. But I don't think our guys are going to go in the tank.
encouraged
We showed a lot of heart, ... We showed a lot of character. I'm encouraged by what I've seen.
ball creative expect people roll ways
We expect (double coverage) every game. People are going to do it, roll (coverage) to him and stuff. But we're creative enough where we can find ways to get him the ball down the field.
believe definitely kinds learned newspapers opinions
I've definitely learned that you never believe everything that you read in the newspapers or see on TV, ... I mean, you've got to make your own kinds of opinions in this business.
came guys hung proud season tonight work
The whole season has been disappointing, but I am proud of the way guys hung in there and fought. I know that guys came to play tonight and it was unfortunate that things didn't work out in our favor.
makeup talent wait
And while we can't wait too much longer, we know we've got to get this thing righted. We've got the guys. We have the makeup to do it, and we've got the talent to do it.
coverage fun playing randy single
Randy had single coverage on the outside, and we know we aren't going to see that often with Randy. It's going to be a lot of fun playing with him.
ball defense keys played run winning
Our defense played great, and we were able to run the ball well. Those are the two keys to winning a game.
effortless far run throw unique
Everything is so effortless for him, ... It doesn't look like he's running. I can throw it as far as I can and he catches up to it with no problem. He's a unique guy. He can run unique routes. Every day, I see something that's new and different, and it's something that I like.
