backs bit effort everybody expected guys job line offensive pass playing pride regardless running work
Everybody has to take a bit more pride and effort that the No. 1 job of the offensive line and running backs is pass protection. You don't want that quarterback to be touched.

The schedule gives us balance in terms of not being on the road more than one week at a time.
