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.

If we can hang into the fourth quarter, we are probably going to win our share. We'll probably lose some, too. But we won this one, and that's good for our team and it should carry us a little ways.
confident continued felt five good guys happen job liked looking people resolute teams whether winning wonder
I did wonder whether it would happen or not. Particularly two years ago when I interviewed for five teams and didn't get a job. I felt if it didn't happen this year, it probably wouldn't. But I was resolute and confident with where I was. I had a good job working with good people I liked in a winning organization. A lot of guys are looking for that. If it didn't happen, I would have just continued to do what I was doing.

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.

We have to play smarter, ... If we play smarter, we will give ourselves a chance to win some games. If we don't play smarter, we won't give ourselves the chance we need. That's what we're going to emphasize to the team.

That's why you have to play 60 minutes. Even though we were not clicking early, we found our rhythm and were able to make two big plays to win the game.

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.

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.
