finger guess guys last point talented
I don't think we have slipped talent-wise. I think we're talented enough to play with anybody. But I do sense our guys are not happy, not satisfied, and they shouldn't be, with last season. There really was some embarrassment there for all of us. No doubt, there is a sense of urgency. We need to go out with excitement, with hunger, every week. We had that at times last season, but not all the time. I guess you could point the finger at me, but we did not play with consistency.
corner expect good great player talented
Devin's going to be a great player for us and I just haven't been around a corner more talented than Devin Hester. And we expect him to be a really great corner. But again, he's been there one year. And let's understand, Marcus Maxey is very talented. He's an awfully good player or he wouldn't be there.

Andrew may be our most talented back. I know he's our fastest back.
difference game lift run weight
When you get to this level, as I've said before, you can only lift so much weight and you can only run so fast. How are you going to be a difference maker? How are you going to take your game up? And that's what Brandon's done.
gravitate players receptive special start
The players have been really receptive to the new coaches, and there's some special things they're being taught. Once they know they're going to get better, they start to gravitate to it.

With Olsen, whatever he does, it's like, 'Wow,'

Without question he will help our offense move forward. Todd has turned down opportunities to coach in the NFL, so we're pleased to have him as part of our offensive staff.

We do have depth back there but we'll miss Anthony Reddick, he's a good football player. Phillips played 19 snaps against Florida State and had one mental error so he's ready.
