We're certainly not going to get any worse.
calls certainly formulate game help lighten load maybe offensive perfect staff steve taken week works
That would be a perfect scenario, where he works with that offensive staff through the whole week and works with Steve to formulate how the game will be called. Maybe Steve calls the game in, with the help of Jerry. But anything that can lighten the load of what I've taken on will be certainly fun.
ask ball certainly himself learn mix needs pass protect runs
He runs the ball hard. He's getting better. ... Like any young back, he needs to learn how to pass protect better. But certainly he has put himself in the mix and that's all you can ask from these young players.
certainly good heat monitor step sure top
Yes, I think it's a good thing. If what we think about the heat is true, we're very on top of it. ... Certainly we want to make sure that we monitor it every step of the way.
bait ball calling certain plan problem problems seem supposed
We had a plan where we were going to bait him into calling certain things and then move. When we did that, we had to be where we were supposed to be when the ball was snapped. And we've had a problem with that this year. But we didn't seem to have too many problems with that today.
accepting battle best certainly chance coach friday gives head morning played player starting sure team win
He's not very happy. Would you be? You're in a heated battle to win a starting job. You get told by your head coach in the morning that you're going to be a backup. I thought he played well Friday night, but this gives us the best chance to be successful. As a team player I am sure he is accepting it. I'm certainly sure he doesn't like it.
anybody good
We're going to be as good as anybody offensively, ... Our quarterback is in a zone.

The story got in the paper, then it got on the web, then it went worldwide. Then our phones started ringing and people started asking about Moss so we had a meeting and said, 'Since these calls are coming, what is the value of Moss?' We said it was three No. 1s because we knew no one in his right mind would ever give up three No. 1s.

minimal randy rest saw sort treatment
Randy strained his right hamstring. I saw him today; he's been in for treatment twice. We'll see. He could be up in some sort of a role, minimal role, or we can rest him.
foresee playing
Personally, I don't foresee him playing this week.
defense good honest looked offensive playing rhythm side work
Offensively it was atrocious. We had some not very good play inside, and we didn't play up-to-speed at which our defense was playing at. We looked too big and too sluggish. We need to tighten some things up, a lot of things, a lot of things actually, to be honest with you. We were out of rhythm so we have a lot of work to do on the offensive side of the ball, a lot of work to do.
best brought pick since
best young lineman we've brought in since Birk (sixth-round pick in 1998).
