consistency far felt leadership looked veteran
When we looked at our team, the one thing we felt we lacked was veteran leadership and consistency as far as playmakers on defense,
far guys job looked mirror reality realize season uniform
Unfortunately this season so far there have been more times when I have looked in the mirror ... and feel like I can put on the uniform and feel like I can do a little better job than some of the guys that are out on the field. And then I come back to reality and realize I'm 46.
ahead came caught concerned defense depth evident far number player prospects special veteran
It came evident to me as a veteran player that he was going to get caught up in the numbers. We have a number of bright, young prospects who are ahead of him on the depth chart, not only as far as defense is concerned, linebacker, but as far as play-making is concerned on special teams.
continue corner far infection rest turned
He's kind of turned the corner a little as far as the infection goes. We'll see how he does ... We're going to continue to just let him rest and continue with the antibiotics.

asking calls knew meeting mind moss people phones ringing three value
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?'

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).
depth felt good
I've never felt this good about our depth at cornerback,
offensive side work
Atrocious, ... 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.
somebody
There's not a whole lot out there. If it was out there, I think somebody would have it.
