center football played pushed second turned type winning
No, he didn't get pushed back. I think he just turned around and made the tackle, our center did. I don't think we played any type of winning football offensively, especially in the second half.
football intelligence level parts poise three trying win
When you're trying to win a playoff-caliber football game, you need to have all three parts play at that level. Not only the level of play-making ability, but also the level of poise and the level of intelligence or smartness.
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.
winning games victory
I've always learned when you win a game, no matter what the stats look like, you have to enjoy the victories because they are hard to come by.
against carry future guys increased mentioned next players role standing team victory whether winning year
All the guys I've mentioned are playing. I'd just like to see a little more increased role with them to see if these young players can actually carry us to victory against a team with a winning record. Because they are the future of this organization, whether I'm standing here at the podium next year or someone else is.

We're going to be as good as anybody offensively, ... Our quarterback is in a zone.
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?' 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 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.
