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.
adversity good happens work
What happens when adversity strikes? And it will, and we'll have to work through those issues. It won't always be the good times in the preseason when everyone's patting you on the back.
concern good playing
The only concern I have is how is he playing right now, and he's playing pretty good. So, I feel good about that.
full games glass half
We're not going to make it look pretty and say, 'Well, we've been here before,' ... We have 14 games to play and we can't panic. But I don't think you can tell them the glass is half full when it's not.
available certain definitely spots wide
There are definitely spots available to be had by certain players. That 53rd, 52nd, 51st, 50th spots are still wide open.
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.
best game help leaders level players question
Our leaders and our best players need to play their game and play to their level and help us here. There's no question about that,
ball carry felt last missed played ready three wished
I wished he could have played in the last ball game, he didn't feel that having been in the courthouse he was ready to play, he had missed three practices, so I didn't feel I wanted to put him out there at risk. But I felt in the first three games, he had opportunities to carry the football.
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.
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.
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.
