ball confidence control experience extremely game great job lead learn throwing tight
I think he's throwing the ball extremely well and I think he has the confidence of being in a lot of big games, the experience that comes with being in tight ball games, being in two-minute situations, being ahead, being behind, all of the things that you need to learn to be able to learn to be able to control the game and lead your team. I think he's done a great job of that.
chad credit embraced gets giving great handled helping job players praise pressure terry
Our players embraced him and Chad gets most of the credit for that because of the way he handled the pressure of the job and the praise he got for doing it. But (quarterbacks coach) Scot Loeffler did a great job of helping him get better every day and (offensive coordinator) Terry Malone did a great job of giving him things he could handle, not overloading him.
alternate field finding great improved job looking patient pocket seeing standpoint throwing
He has really improved his throwing from the standpoint of seeing the field. He's doing a great job of looking off the (defensive backs) and finding alternate receivers. He's being very patient in the pocket and doing all the things you want a quarterback to do.
good job sure zone
Henne was in the end zone. I'm sure they'll say it wasn't. He was in the end zone and I think they just did not do a good job in the booth, because it's the kind of play that should have been reviewed.
decent executing felt good job
They just did a good job of executing a good play. It was a good call. We felt like we were in a decent defense.
ability break dropping finding football great improved job looking presence seeing standpoint throwing
He's really improved throwing the football from the standpoint of seeing the field. When he's dropping back, he's doing a great job looking off, finding alternative receivers. His presence there is outstanding, and he still has the ability when things break down to make a play.
expect football game mistakes red win
We just made too many mistakes in the red zone. You can't get the football down there and give it away like we did and expect to win a game like this.
effort fight football found good liked lost offensive standpoint talented took
We lost a football game, but I think we found a defense. I liked the way we played, from a standpoint of effort and aggressiveness. I thought we were very physical. I thought we took the fight to Notre Dame. They're a very talented offensive football team. (But) there's nothing good about losing. Nothing.
football found lost
We lost a football game, but I think we found a defense.
leave
It was a long night, leave it that way.
both changes hopefully sides unfold
There will be significant changes on both sides of the ball. That will unfold in the fall, and hopefully it will be obvious. The most important thing is it translates into performance.
good plays poor progress throws
Being a quarterback is a process. And I think he made a lot of progress. I think he made some very good throws out there today, then he had some very poor plays that he'd like to have back.
everybody resolute season turn
Everybody is disappointed. And yet everybody is resolute to try to do the things we need to do to turn the season around.
anybody football goals good happened lost program stage teams unless
Every program has goals and you have to decide, do you still have the same goals, because when you look around at what's happened in the first two weeks, a lot of very good football teams have lost. I don't think at this stage anybody is out of anything unless you've lost two games.
