game glad happened injury knew saw sideline team upstairs
We saw what happened upstairs and they said (Favre) got leg-whipped. It wasn't intentional, I believe. We kind of knew what the injury was. He swore to me on the sideline that it was fine, but it stiffened up on him as the game went along. I was glad that he was able to go in and get the team into the end zone. That was important to him and to the offense.
begin exactly gets himself honest hospital ludicrous reluctant run signed symptoms tests
To be honest with you, he's reluctant to go to the hospital to begin with. The symptoms were exactly the same as (last year). And we made him go to the hospital, which is ludicrous for him not to go. He gets there, they run some tests, the tests are negative. He wanted to come back here, so he signed himself out of the hospital. They weren't done doing the tests.
best drifted field gave joey option played route sat thomas top
Yeah, I thought Joey Thomas should have sat on the route a little better than he did. He drifted at the top of the route. He should have sat on that a little bit, played for a field goal, that was their best option and we kind of drifted at the top of the route and gave them that one.
advantage blame chances game
I won't blame the game on that fan. We had our chances and we didn't take advantage of them.
effort encouraged fairly football fought imagination league losing moral national saw stretch supposed thrill time victories winners year
I was fairly encouraged for the first time this year - there's no thrill in losing and there's no moral victories by any stretch of the imagination in the National Football League - but I saw some things out of the team. I thought they battled, I thought they competed, they fought and did the things that winners are supposed to do from an effort standpoint.
fact grips risk
I still haven't come to grips with the fact that he would be unavailable - because he's always been there, ... But we're not going to put him out there and put him at risk if that's going to be the case.
ask butter green hurt
You'll play hurt in Green Bay, son, and you will ask for butter on your cheeseburgers, and you will like it.
anyway case certainly fact limit misleading plays prepared run
Well, certainly it's limiting. How limiting? They've all run the run plays that we are calling. We've had to limit it going into this thing anyway in case this in fact did happen, so we prepared that way. But it does limit you some. I'd be misleading you to say it didn't.
certainly chance dinner fact gave good house invite might proud ways win
I might invite him over to my house for dinner tonight, ... He certainly still has some ways to go, but I was proud of the fact he made a good play there and gave us a chance to win the game.
achieved good minute played quite team
We haven't played as well this year, that bodes out more than anything. One minute you have a really good team here and you have really good results. We haven't quite achieved that here as of late.
bit bond elder good statesmen team
Those are two of the elder statesmen on the team who have been through the good times and through the struggles. So they have a little bit of a bond there.
penalty playing season situation stupid worked
We have a long way to go. The penalty situation is inexcusable, and that comes back to me, as I told the players, but I put it on them right now because we have to get that worked out. That will not work this season if we have that many penalties. Playing stupid like that does not bode well.
ball calls necessary plays win
We just didn't make the necessary plays to win this ball game, ... or make the necessary calls to win this ball game.
against aggressive capable game heavy hits laying looks plays safety season
You know, he started the season like gangbusters, had the big interception in the first game against Tampa, he's laying some pretty heavy hits on people, he's really being an aggressive safety and making the plays that he's capable of making and yeah, he looks good,
