coach cut great hit last press secondary team
When you play a team that's got a great secondary with great speed, you can't make a lot of moves. Coach (Calvin) Magee and I were on him the last two weeks, 'Steve, press the blocks, make one cut and just hit it.' And he did that today.
biggest earned fun guys hit leverage screen start year
The one on the screen which was the biggest hit of the year so far. It showed the guys that if you get the right leverage and do the right thing, you can have a lot of fun out there. He's earned the right to start this week.
defense drives field hit keeping key north playing positive south weave

You have to be an unselfish guy to handle this role. Both of them are. I'd rather have too many bullets than not enough. Both are weapons.

bit coming moving offense panic stem though tide toes
Even though they were coming back we didn't panic because our offense was still moving the ball. We stubbed our toes a little bit with penalties, but we weren't getting three-and-outs. At least we were able to stem the tide with our offense getting some first downs.
everybody guy
Everybody claps. Ain't one guy who does his own thing.
