capable chambers chris confidence continue help maybe potential success
There are a lot of things we think Chris Chambers is capable of doing and to have success like this will help his confidence and maybe we'll continue to see some big-play potential there, that we've always thought existed.
calling card defensive field helpful people quality situations terms types
What people do on the field is kind of your calling card in terms of the quality of work. When he was a defensive coordinator at Jacksonville and Pittsburgh, they did some pretty quality work. They had top-line defensive teams. He did it in different situations featuring different types of players. That will be helpful to us.
advantage couple defense field helped missed plays position throws
We missed a couple of throws and had a couple of turnovers. . . We made some big plays on defense, which helped us. We just have to take advantage of the field position when we get it.
brown determine help playing speculate
Brown playing more and more and more will help us to determine how we do that, but I think to speculate on that right now would be very premature.
based best both decisions guys help offensive team
I'm here to say that we're here to help both guys get better and improve, and we'll make the decisions based on what's best for our offensive team to get better.
competition create experience familiar help knowledge system team veteran younger
Gus is going to make us a better team at the quarterback position. His knowledge and experience that comes with being a veteran will help the development of some of our younger players. In addition, he is familiar with our system and he'll create competition at the position.
appreciate based good great guy helpful overcome played players proud role team terms
He's played a great role for this team all year. He's been unselfish, he's been a really good team guy and he's been very helpful with a lot of other players in terms of what he's done. I can't tell you how much we appreciate it as an organization based on what he's done and how he's played and how he's overcome a lot. We're real proud of him.
bag execute help matter
Just the opposite. I think we should do a lot of stuff. I don't think going in the bag is going to help us. Because it doesn't matter what we do we still have to execute and do it with discipline. It's not what we're doing. It's how we're doing what we're doing. Getting conservative about it is not going to help us at all.

anxiety create help ronnie
We are not disappointed in Ronnie Brown. As I said before, expectations always create frustration and a lot of anxiety, which doesn't necessarily help a guy's performance.

He's just a good coach. He's going to help develop and implement what we do.

That's a part of the business. Now he is going to have to overcome it and we are going to have to help him overcome it.
bad helping players purpose weather
There's a twofold purpose. Not just for bad weather but sometimes helping players recover.
available ball basically certainly develop developing game guys healthy heath help issues key nicely personnel players playing position quite ran running spots wrong year
They've had personnel issues at the running back position for quite some time. They are getting those guys back now and I think those guys are playing better and better. I think they're as healthy as they've been all year. I think that's the key to it. They ran the ball effectively down here. Heath Evans was basically playing tailback. I don't think there is anything wrong with their running game; I just think that they haven't had all the players available in all the right spots being healthy this year that can help them develop the running game more quickly, but it's certainly developing nicely now.
