You look at Kansas City, they were No. 2 in point production and San Diego was third in point production in the NFL. So we're going to see it a few times this year.
cast feels good high hoping played playing supporting system third year
I think most quarterbacks in their third year have a good feel for the terminology, a good feel for the supporting cast and you are hoping that in the third year, your quarterback is playing at a very high level. He feels a lot more comfortable with our system and a lot more comfortable with the supporting cast and he has played well.
feels process third
I can't say it's any one thing. He's in his third year. He feels comfortable with the system. I think it's a process and hopefully, he can keep it up.
contribute fourth guy knows pick third throw tough
When you have your second, third or fourth back that knows the system, you can throw him in there every day. That is why it's tough to pick a guy up during the season, because you actually want that guy to contribute to the team.
carries hopefully takes third year
It's coaches, players, different terminology, ... It takes a third year before you really feel comfortable, not having to think and react. I could see that in the offseason and hopefully it carries on into the season.

He's been more consistent throughout training camp. I told Charlie before the Arizona game that he was going to be our starting third wide receiver and to get ready to play.

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.

The Giants did what they had to do to win. We had our opportunities in the third and fourth quarters, couldn't take advantage of them, and they took advantage of theirs on that last drive.

bowl division gives goal home playoff statistics super wild win won
So, obviously, first comes the AFC West. The goal is to win playoff games, but the division is first, ... You can do it other ways, and we have won a Super Bowl as a wild card, but the statistics show there is no question, being at home gives you an advantage.
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.
