bottom line
The bottom line is winning. I want to do what we need to do to win football games.
people
I want winners. I want people who want to win.
great
'How' is a great thing to know. 'Why' is the ultimate. I'm the 'why' coach. Why are we doing this? Why are we not doing that? Why is this not working? Those are the things I want to know.
whatever win
The No. 1 thing is you want to be able to win the game, and we're going to do whatever we have to do to win the game.
life longest played sat won
My first game, I played the first play of the game and called a timeout and got sat down, got benched for the rest of the game, and we won the game. It was the longest day of my life. Long day. Very embarrassing.
bottom later line trying
All I know is, I was trying to win the football game. And the bottom line is, you have to do what you think is right. You have to go with your gut. And if you don't do that, then I think you regret a lot of things later on.
coverage everybody jeff studies works
Jeff Ulbrich understands the game. He works hard. He studies film. Coverage is not just speed, it's technique. Jeff understands that. Not everybody does.
grow
He's got to grow some fangs real quick.
coverage ears eyes jeff playing studying technique
Playing coverage isn't about speed. It's about technique and studying film. Jeff Ulbrich understands that. He's the ears and eyes of the defense.
Our quarterback is going to be Alex Smith.
best everybody gives move opportunity season sit
I just feel that after the season that we have to sit down - as well as myself, everybody - and try and look at what gives us the best opportunity to move going forward.
believe coaches fast good half hate league million reasons sit
I can sit here and think of a million reasons why it hasn't happened, ... I believe it's coming. No, it hasn't been fast enough. At the same time, I would hate to see a league with half African-American coaches ... if they're not good coaches.
heart player nfl
Players respond to coaches who really have their best interests at heart.
sorry opportunity player
What made it so special were the players. They were some of the most outstanding men I have ever been around in my life. The coaches were truly professionals. I wish the 49ers nothing but the best. I am thankful to the York family for having given me the opportunity to be a head coach in the NFL. I am indebted to them for that. I am also thankful for the Faithful fans, I am just sorry I couldn't give them more.
