along came candidate changed compelled job last since top
Sorry, Marty, but the world changed since we last addressed your job security. Our top candidate all along just came free, and we feel compelled to act.
jobs should-have years
What I should have done, if I was going to be a GM, was gone on the road, gotten into the personnel a lot better. To do that job, you've gotta do it all year. I just did it at draft time.
jobs player thinking
I think every coach has to adapt to what they have, because they're what you get. You can't just go out to the player tree and pick all the great ones. That doesn't happen. You get a Barry Sanders every now and then. You get a Billy Sims every once in a while. And when you have it, you adapt to their strengths. Whoever comes in here and whoever has this job needs to adapt and will do that.
coach front higher office played player talent
The talent is there. We have not played up to that talent. We need to play at a higher level, and each player and each coach and each person in the front office has to do a better job.
You always think of the ones that get away.
board great higher highly pick rated
That was a great pick for us. We had him rated very highly on the board -- higher than No. 9, that's for sure. We have high expectations for him.
consider three
We have three quarterbacks on our roster that we like, but yes, we would consider it.
couple guys love mind
I'd love to move. There's a couple guys I wouldn't mind going up to get, but at what price?
half mcmahon tonight
McMahon could come out here tonight in the first half and you'll go, 'Holy smokes. Harrington will never see the field.' Or you may go, 'Uh, we'll see.'
determined downright honest maybe resolute ticked took understand
Maybe it took me a while to really understand that. But I do understand it now, and if anything, you're more resolute and more determined and more, to be honest with you, downright ticked off to get this thing done.
hope three
You hope there are going to be three drafted. If there aren't, you adapt.
good nice players staff took
We've got a long way to go. But I thought they took a good first step. It was a nice introduction for everybody, for the players to the staff, and for the staff to the players.
develop five games prove younger
Why now? Why not at the end of the season? To me, it's simple. We have five games left. We have five games to develop our younger players. We have five games to prove we are what we think we are.
lie people telling thinks truth
You can tell people the truth and everyone thinks you're lying, and you can lie and everyone thinks you're telling the truth.
