difficult expect football good great group guys hope last next since stepping stone
We've come a long way since last year. Hopefully, this will be a stepping stone for this football team. I think we've got great talent, I think we've got guys with great character, all the things you want. I hope we can keep this group intact. It's difficult to do nowadays. But if we can, I expect some good things next year.
ball game last passing ran
We were one-dimensional last year. We ran the ball very well, I thought, but our passing game was lacking. When you can have that balance, you're more efficient.
few football fourth games last plays reach resolve shows three today weeks win
We scored 14 in the fourth quarter, and the last few weeks we haven't been able to do that. I think it just shows the resolve of this team. We had three very frustrating weeks -- games that were very much in our reach -- and today we made the plays we need to make to win the football game.
confidence football good half last picture team
We should have confidence because we are a good football team on offense. We've scored some points, particularly in the last half of the season. . . .We're going to look at the big picture going into this game.
last lost numbers sick
I am sick that we lost the game. Particularly with the numbers that we have had or haven't had these last two games, it has been difficult.
critical four games great guys hard last realize riding season tough worked year
Our season is riding on this game. The guys have worked real hard all year to get to this place. From where we were at 5-6, it's pretty remarkable. All of that being said and as great as these last four games have been, if we don't get this one, it would be tough to end the season that way. We have to realize how critical this is.
asked coach familiar felt great last man playoffs season seem team week
He'd been to the playoffs before. I was asked last week what I thought this season has felt like for Coach Gibbs. I would think it must seem very familiar to a man with all those playoff wins. He's a great coach who understands how to get his team to play.
close difficult disservice game last move team thinking
If you play long enough in this league, you're going to have some real close ones, difficult ones to overcome, but you've got to move on. If you don't, you're doing your team a disservice by thinking about the last game and not about the upcoming game.
bit fourth improvement last marked ourselves quarter rut
It's a marked improvement over last year. We just find ourselves in a little bit of a rut right now. We're getting to that fourth quarter and we're just not getting it done.
confidence gives last perhaps played points score team time
They're a better team than the last time we played them. Having been able to score those points (35) last time perhaps gives us some confidence going into their place.
allow came
We wouldn't allow anything that came before the team.
bunch focused giggles guys listen puts time
We're not just a bunch of giggles out there. We work, but there is a time for a little levity, and I think it puts guys at ease. Some guys are so focused they don't listen to you anyway.
against feeling games good halfway hard overall played pleased position team tough won
We're not in any position to make any proclamations because we're only halfway through. All we can say is we're pleased with where we're at, 5-3. It could be better; it could be worse. You are what you are and we're a 5-3 team halfway through. Probably the overall feeling is that we feel pretty good about ourselves. We've been in tough games and won them. We've played against good defenses and offenses, and for the most part we've done very well. But it's hard to say at this point.
ball turn win
Turnovers killed us. You're just not going to win if you turn the ball over.
