coach expect
I'm not going to come out and say how many I think we can win, but I expect us to win, and I want to win. We're going to coach to win, and we're going to try to get them to play to win. That's why we're in this game.
choices coaches forward guy hiring last moving next teams time wants
Everyone wants to get started and get moving forward for the next year. The more time it takes, the more they feel like they're getting behind. Particularly when other teams make choices by hiring coaches and they don't want to be the last guy standing.
coaches job knows move promotions shows system work
We said when he got here that he would have to work his way up. I told my coaches that there aren't going to be any battlefield promotions out on the field. He's going to have to go through the process. When he shows us he knows the system and he's getting the job done, then he'll move up.
both coaching decide decision guys understand
Sure, probably after the first incompletion by Trent. I think both guys understand it's a coaching decision and they have nothing to do but go play the game. I'll decide if I take a guy out or put a guy in.
coach everybody felt fit football guy guys looking move needed people productive recognize trade
Some of that was by circumstance. We wanted to move a guy and they wanted two guys in a trade. That position, looking at it, wasn't as productive as it needed to be. I felt we had other people who fit better, so some of them had to leave. As football coaches, you like to think you can coach everybody and anybody, but sometimes you have to recognize that you can't.
again assumed chance charlie coaching currently decision everybody february maybe slight super talk until wait
I think the system, as it currently is, probably was a slight disadvantage to Charlie and myself. Everybody assumed we were going to the Super Bowl, which they were correct, and they didn't want to wait until February to have a chance to talk to us again and maybe make a decision about a coaching job. I would have to say it was a disadvantage.
best both coaches color football game guy hoping opening playing skin team transcends win
I would like to think the game transcends it all, and that's the thing both Marvin and I were working toward, and hoping to get. In the NFL, the color of a coach's skin doesn't matter. We're just two football coaches playing each other on Opening Day and the guy who can get his team to play the best on that day should win the game, and I think that's what we both want from our position.

Wellington knew the business, ... He knew football in and out. He knew good coaches and bad coaches, good players and bad players, and he always had an affection for coaches and players.
forward looking sure team victory
I'm sure he's disappointed because I know he wanted to be part of a victory. But he's still part of the team and we're looking forward to a speedy recovery.
competing competition everybody football giving guys positions team
I know the competition makes everybody better. So by having guys on the team competing for positions and their jobs, they give me more. And by them giving me more, we should be a better football team.
develop good grow man perfect return screwed
I know that he wasn't perfect because he screwed some things up, but I think he's showed us enough that we feel like he can grow and develop to be a return man in the NFL. We feel good about his abilities and potential.
course enjoy rumors talking week worried
I know that during the course of this week there have been some distractions, and some rumors going around, but I'm going to enjoy this victory. I'm not worried about any rumors. I'm not talking about any rumors, so don't even ask.
hands high himself knows move played playing proven season sees system
Everyone sees his size. But I really like his technique. He knows how to use his hands and move his feet. He's played this system and proven himself in this season by playing at a high level.
blood bone cast determine fact flow good gotten healed maybe piece somewhat supply taking time wrist
The blood supply and blood flow into the wrist is somewhat minimal. He has a piece of a bone in there that was taking a long time (to heal). It's gotten better because of the fact that he's had a cast on. After the season, they're going to take a real good look at it and determine if they need to go in and do something or if it's healed enough to maybe he can do enough without the cast.
