anybody bury coached knows league team
You bury a team when you get a chance. When you get a lead, you don't play it safe. Anybody that's ever coached in this league knows that.
behind game help hurt ourselves plan throws window
We hurt ourselves more than they did anything to help themselves. It throws a lot of your game plan out the window when you have to play from behind like that.
break confidence develop far game team type winning
Every game as far as team confidence is make or break for us. We've got to develop that type of a winning attitude.
cast jason primary trust
We have a lot of trust in Jason. The primary thing with Jason is, once we get the surrounding cast to be more consistent, he will be more consistent.
aggressive either football gets goes home lose losing notice people rest somebody sure time waiting
We can't rest on losing a football game. If you notice our transactions, every time we lose a game, somebody either goes home or something gets changed. And I'm not waiting around. I'm going to be aggressive about this thing. I'm going to make sure we've got the right people playing.
deal defending dig environment game hole hostile huge next ourselves pivotal tough walking week
If we had come out 0-2, we'd have to dig ourselves out of a huge hole walking into a very hostile environment next week in Colorado. The defending champs are going to be very tough to deal with at their house, so this game was a pivotal game for us.
ball expect giving players point points team turning
Obviously, our point totals that we're giving up aren't what we would expect defensively with some of the players that we have. But in all fairness, the turnovers are the big issue. Defensively, you're going to give up points when you're turning the ball over and giving the other team more opportunities (and) that's what we've been doing.
charge develop employee hill industrial level management program safety starts system
This program is not new to Hill or the industrial world. It's actually a management system that starts at the employee level. You get them to take charge of their safety program and then all the way up through management you develop a level of accountability.
above arena football four games league starting win
Particularly defensively, we're starting to come into our own. In an Arena Football League game, when you're getting above four stops, you should be able to win every one of those games going away, and we did.
change jason number poise positive promise team
I think the quarterback change has been a positive one. I think the team has rallied around the new guy, and I think Jason showed a lot of promise and a lot of poise in a number of situations.
decisions expected happen lead next sure team time victory
I expected more from these guys. I know we've got a lot of new faces, but we don't have time to get a team to jell. It has to happen now. We've got a lot of decisions to make on personnel, and we've got to make sure that we get the adjustments to lead us to victory next week.
close expect few last mind situation
We're of the mind-set that if it does come down to the last play, we're going to make the play. You can't expect anything more than (being close at the end). We haven't been in that situation for a few weeks, and that's disappointing.
against bad guard hit incidents isolated played second start throwing trying
What you have to guard against (in) a second start is that he's not trying to do too much. Of the two interceptions, one was a bad decision, and the other one was getting hit when he was throwing the football. I think those were isolated incidents and that he played well.
flexible system work
His system isn't as flexible as I would like it to be. Not that it doesn't work. Certainly, it does work.
