athletes risk
We will not put our athletes at risk at all.
ball bit bunch continue either except fairly good thrown work
Especially early, I thought we were really sharp. Executed fairly well. Didn't have a whole bunch of mistakes. A few. I thought Erik had a really good game, except the two sacks.

ability believe effort found good near played screw situations teams
I don't believe it's been an ability thing or an effort thing, ... We've played some good teams and found a way to screw it up in some special-teams situations and offensively not to be near what we thought.
apparently coming concerned weather
I am concerned about this weather that's apparently coming in, but that's not something we can do anything about today.
extremely good
I would have not thought that would have been the way it would have been. I still think we have extremely good big-play potential.
