couple draft good guys improved second trying
If we can get our first-day guys to make a contribution and get a couple of the guys from the second day to also help, then we would have improved in the draft process. That?s what we?re working on. We?re trying to improve and we feel good about where we are.
emphasize hope message penalties penalty send took trying understand win
They called a penalty on him and we were trying to emphasize we don't really want penalties and don't need penalties so we took him out of the game. I hope (our players) understand that penalties will get us beat. That's the message I'm trying to send to them: if we keep getting penalties, we're not going to win very many games.
