We haven't quite gotten to where I had hoped we'd get to. But this season has certainly felt good, and I'm very proud of the football team so far.
Usually, when there's contact like that, it's a no-call. But they called it and that's that. That's the way the day went.
We've got to let the ribs heal. He's got to feel like he can run and those things. The area that now is rather large causing him discomfort has to shrink, so (doctors) can put the medicine in where they have to put it in. Right now, it's too large. But he's on schedule; he's getting better.
To find a quarterback to take you to the Super Bowl in our offense is very, very important. We were able to do that in Year 3.
He's acknowledged in the league as one of the best position coaches.
get out of town and ride my motorcycle for a few days.
If a guy becomes available the caliber of Peter Warrick, I think we're going to bring him in, look at him, talk to him,
If a guy becomes available the caliber of a Peter Warrick, we're probably going to bring him in. I think then you're doing your due diligence. I'm looking for a guy to catch every pass we throw to him.
I expected more from him. We had a nice visit. I think the world of him. I think he is a really good player. I set the bar very high for him. My expectation level for him is high. Any time he falls short of that, fair or not fair, I want to talk to him about it.
I enjoy working with him; he's a good guy,
Carolina offered him just a phenomenal financial package, and he was gone. Ken had developed his skills. We drafted him, we liked him, he had gotten better and better and better, and now he's playing at a certain level. That was a good signing by Carolina.
But we're in as good a position as any team to absorb that. Our attitude has always been the next guy steps in, and off you go.
I would be in better position to answer it on Wednesday, ... Except I'm not going to be here.
I grabbed him and now I'm mad at him for walking away and he's mad at me for grabbing him.
