against ball defense defensive football good lose momentum move past pick stop sudden teams yards
Yeah, it is frustrating. But there is some good with it. When you move the ball 80 yards on your first drive, and all of a sudden you're on the 1-yard line, and all of a sudden you lose your momentum like we did. When you go against a good defense and you're in long-yardage situations, you're going to be in for a long day, so you can't stop yourself. We're going to play a lot of good defensive football teams this year, so we'd better pick it up. If we don't, then we're going to be inconsistent like we have been the past two weeks.

It's one of the deeper teams we've had, I believe, ... We'll see in the end if we can keep it going. But the nature of this business is you're going to lose players. It happens to every football team. We've had guys step up and play well and hopefully we can keep it going.

difficult figure football great job national people plays rest
He's unbelievable. They do a great job with their scheme-making, making it very difficult to figure out where he is, but the rest is him making plays. There are not many plays where he is not involved, and you can't say that about many people in the National Football League.

We just want him to get better and ready for the regular season. I have no worries he'll be ready.
