It wasn't as bad as they thought, and it is not going to be as long as we thought. At some same point we thought it might be six to eight weeks.

It was mutually agreed upon that Mike would not return to the Redskins next season.
conversation direction good headed
It was a good conversation. Ultimately, we weren't headed in the direction (Davis) wanted to be headed, and he wanted to make a switch.
honest
It was pretty incredible, to be honest with you.
league staying
It's what this league is now. A lot of it is schedule. A lot of it is how you start. A lot of it is staying healthy.
short sore tender
It's very, very tender and sore right now. We'll see where he's at the end of the week. It's a short week. I think we'll know Thursday. He's just not much better than he was.

It's certainly not by design. It's a combination of things. We want to get the ball to him. He's getting an awful lot of double coverage.

They did a real good job. They have a good scheme, they have a veteran quarterback, they spread us out, and (Brady) was hot.
absolutely block bring change chipping good job moving single whether
We have to do all the things you do, whether it be change up the cadence, whether it be chipping guys, whether it be doubling. They do a good job of moving inside-outside to keep you from getting a good double-team on them. They'll bring the linebacker with the end to that side. So at times you just absolutely have to single block them.

We certainly haven't heard anything from them and we don't expect to. From what I sw, and from everything that's been referred to me, everything was spoken in the past tense.

came convert false fight game goes good half hard lead looks lose pressure protection second start third
Early, I thought our protection and the things we did were good. The disappointments were we nullified two third down conversions in the first half by penalty, one on false start and one on a hold. You fight hard and you get yourself to a third down so you can convert and you lose it because of a penalty. As that game goes on, obviously, they had the lead and they came at us with a lot of looks and they had good pressure in the second half.
