came caught fair liked run
I would liked for him to run out of bounds. That (free kick) is always a discussion. That's just the way it came up. He could have fair caught it, yes.
coming easy gotten guys plays randy routes runs sleep takes taking
I don't think Randy takes many plays off, ... There are times when he runs some routes at a change-of-pace speed, and that is one of his strengths. He's lulled some guys to sleep and gotten big plays, coming off easy and then taking off and going.
biggest brings excellent good grow guy job pass physical run
The biggest thing is he brings a physical presence. He did an excellent job in the run game, an excellent job in pass protection. ... He is a young guy that I think is going to grow and become a very good player.
block capable cut game guard hole maybe misses number plays running tight time week yesterday
We had a number of plays yesterday and the week before in the running game where we're one play, one block away. One time it's maybe the tight end on the back side, one time it's the guard pulling, one time the back doesn't make the cut he's capable of making or he just misses the hole by a little bit.
full love recovers run
We'll see each day. If he recovers and can run full speed, we'd love to have him,
defended physical run
I thought we did a lot of things in a physical manner. We defended the run well.

Kerry gave the (Houston) safety a quick pump and he just went flying to Randy. They actually had a guy underneath and both safeties running to him. When (Collins) threw the ball outside to Doug, it's a big play.
accomplish against ball effect good run
Part of when you go out and say we're going to run the ball or we're going to accomplish these things, who you are doing it against has some effect on how well you do it, ... Philadelphia made some good plays.
anyone obviously prepare quite run seems steady time
They've had a long time to prepare for this game. We'll get a look they haven't shown. One of the things that seems to steady anyone down is obviously if you can run the football. If you can run the football, you don't see quite as many looks.
blocking executing fool fools-and-foolishness guys route run running tackling throwing wrinkles
I don't know if you ever fool anyone, but you give them different wrinkles and you give them things that may look like something you've run before and you actually run something different out of it, ... It still comes down to executing and going out and blocking and tackling and running a route and throwing and guys making plays.
good hit returned swing took
took a pretty good hit on a swing pass, but he returned (to the game) and he's fine.
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.
certainly expect heard past referred spoken
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.
accurate field guys numerous rich seen side
I've seen Rich from the other side of the field numerous times. He's one of the more accurate guys I've ever been around.
