closer expectation ready time week
My expectation would be that he's closer to ready than he was at this time a week ago.
accurately anxious career game might predict problem score surface time
The problem with that is every time I've ever done that in my career it's been a low-scoring game and when I've thought it (would be) a low-scoring game it was a shootout. Going in, on the surface you might think that, but I don't think there's any way to accurately predict it. All we're anxious to do is find a way to score one more than they have. That's all we care about.
diligent issue line offensive opportunity quick quite skill spent time tremendous work
He's got a tremendous opportunity and quite a challenge. But work has never been an issue for him. . . . He's been a diligent worker. He's been a quick study. He's spent a lot of time with the offensive line as well as the skill people.
decided few michael time
He wanted to finish, but I decided it was time to give Michael a few shots.
catch four great last point putting responding team time
What they've done is remarkable. But at what point in time do you keep responding when you have to keep putting in new players? They've done it wonderfully over the last four years, but there comes a time where it has to catch up with you, even with a team as great as this one.
available cast forward giving good guy himself last looking matter opportunity preparing spent supporting time
He's spent the last two years preparing himself for this opportunity available to him now. He spent his time well, and we're looking forward to getting started. It's just a matter of giving a young guy an opportunity. You have to have a good supporting cast around him, and we do.
affect again proved time
They've proved time and again it doesn't affect them.
adversity counted difficult eight faced injury problem starters step time year
Every time they've been faced with the kind of adversity that injury brings, they've managed to step up. It had to be difficult for them. I counted eight new starters that they didn't have a year ago. That's a problem for anyone.
absolutely cannot coached football game last nfl remarkable remember time worked
The most remarkable thing of this whole football game, and I've been doing this a long time, I cannot remember the last time that I coached a game in the NFL when there was only one penalty. That was absolutely remarkable and unfortunately we had the one. But we'll get that worked out.
defensive saw sure tight time turned
The first time I saw (Jackson) I wasn't sure if he was a tight end or a defensive end, and as it turned out he was neither.
designed era four people three win
To be able to do what they have done in an era in which everything is designed to get people to be .500 win-loss percentage, and they go out and win three championships in four years, to me that's remarkable.
area believe fact football light might perform question team today year
We did not perform well in any area today and that's awfully disappointing for all of us. We're a better football team than we were a year ago. I believe that. Some might question that in light of the fact that we didn't play very well today.
entire needs player stay throughout
If a player is on the sideline, he needs to stay there throughout the entire game.
finished found picked proud today
We finished things off today and picked up a big win. We battled and found a way. I couldn't be more proud of our men.
