He felt good, ... I said before I had a good feeling about it. I still do.

He'll have to play in a harness, ... Al Wilson had it last year. John Lynch had it.
quickly ready
We try to get everything done as quickly as possible. We have to be ready for March.
picks
When he's in there, there is a presence. He really picks up our team.
shot sure work worth
We feel like he's got some skills. We like the way he plays. When you take a shot on somebody, you're not really sure it's going to work out. But we thought it was worth a gamble.
growing guys hopefully pays strides
Some guys (have) got more growing to go. That's part of the season. But I thought we made some strides and hopefully it pays dividends.
felt goes guy guys help matt
Matt felt a little better (Friday) than he did, so that's a big plus, ... It's just like a game. If a guy goes down, you like to see guys come up. We'll get a look at some guys, and it should help them down the line.
coach defense good head job offense pressure putting remember
I think about my years as a head coach and my years as a coordinator, I don't think I can remember an offense putting as much pressure on (its own) defense as we did (against Miami). We did not do a very good job on offense.

It's really dealing with the pain, ... It was quite sore during the game. That will be determined later.

anytime choice cut entire evaluation mistake obviously somebody team third true
Anytime you cut somebody in the third round, obviously you feel like you made a mistake ... in a true evaluation of your entire organization, anytime you use a third-round choice and he doesn't make your team - that's not good.
against anytime base chance dime field great personnel
Anytime you have your base personnel on the field against a dime defense, you have a chance on a play like that. If we would have made it, it would have been a great call.
chris depleted depth felt guy guys help lose position time
Any time you lose a guy and two guys in the same position there is an impact. You are depleted in depth at that position, two guys that we felt that could help us are Browner and Chris Young.
coach expect jerry minute moments player respect spoke standing team walked
The minute he walked into that room, he got a standing ovation. Every player and coach was on his feet. I didn't expect that, but it was just one of those moments that you cherish. Then Jerry spoke to the team for 10 minutes. It just showed the respect that he has earned.
