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.

I'm not satisfied, by any shape of the imagination. In this business, you have to win football games. If I have a legacy in this game, I'd like it to be said, 'He was a winning head football coach.' Then maybe I can put a feather in my cap.

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.

All day, we were holding our breaths on their kickoffs. He's pretty fast. We were able to ... keep him from scoring (return) touchdowns, but it was difficult. He kept getting in the open and starting foot races and you're not going to win many foot races with that guy.

We identify the players we have to do something about and then figure how we're going to do it. If it turns out to be what we did in New England, it will be because it gives us the best chance with who we have.
ahead backup couple fill game good guys somebody sunday tackle valuable work
We're going to work out a couple guys and see if we can find somebody to fill that spot. That's why it's good that the game is on Sunday and not (yesterday).

So if you can get a backup tackle that you like and that has some upside, I think you can go ahead and make that move.
