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.
guys played
We've played only one game, but for the most part guys are more comfortable with what we're doing.
biggest defense difference football played running smarter
We're being smarter with the football now. Our defense has played well all year, but the biggest difference is we're running the ball. That makes everything much easier.
bring football good played team
We played a good football team on the road, in the playoffs, and you've got to bring your A game. You've got to be at your best. If you don't, then you're going to lose.
best fly following game hurt played week
It's not going to fly with me. The week following the injury, we played Dallas, and I had my best game when the hamstring hurt the most.
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.
best defense difficult football game played playoff win won
This is great. We've played our best football in December, and to get a playoff win on the road, as you know, is very difficult to do. Our defense was incredible. You can't say enough about them. They won the game for us.
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.
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.
ball turn win
Turnovers killed us. You're just not going to win if you turn the ball over.
far run throw
You have to throw it out there about as far as you can because he is going to run and get it.
ball great guys runner telling week
You guys were telling me all week what a great runner I was, ... but you've got to tuck the ball away. If you don't, it will come out.
