I've very, very proud of the job he has done. He is stronger and better because of some of the tough things he had to go through. He and I kind of banged around a little bit, but we're in a good place now.

basketball passionate paycheck profiling rookie talking
is that he's just not passionate enough about football. But when we started talking basketball he got excited. I think he's going to get his rookie paycheck and cruise. He also didn't do well in the psychological profiling we did on him.

bit country couple fortunate guys known number players positions pro star team though throughout truest
That team (Green Bay) was a little bit more of a star team. We had more than a couple guys that were really pretty well known at their positions throughout the country and went to Pro Bowls. Our team now, even though we are fortunate to have a number of players go to the Pro Bowl, is really a team in the truest sense of the word.
achieve balance creates defense focus problems soon time
I think any time you can achieve some balance on offense, it creates problems for the defense. As soon as you become one-dimensional, then any defense can focus in and get you stopped.

If this were to be his last game, then I'm really glad I was here. He has nothing to prove to anybody.

At the end of the year, if you have a guy who scores 20 touchdowns, gains 1,500 yards, goes to the Pro Bowl, does all those things, you're probably happy you have him, ...

I'm a tremendous believer now. It's about as much like grass as you can have a synthetic surface be. I really think the right decision was made. This is great for everyone. Players love it, and I think this surface will offer a better product on the field for fans.
bill both business difficult football four married proud shows since strong talk tells though three wives
Honestly, when Bill and I visit, we don't talk about football as much as we do about our families. He tells me about his three daughters, I tell him about my four daughters. We're both very proud of our daughters. We've both been married to our wives since college. What it shows to me is, even though this business can be difficult on families, we've got strong ones.
happiness happy
It would be an understatement to say I'm not happy about this.
hard pass return team
It was uncharacteristic of my team to have that many penalties. We had a touchdown called back, a pass to the 1 called back and a punt return called back. That's tough. That's hard to overcome.
