based plays run short stick
That was one of the first plays we wanted to run in short yardage based on what their adjustments were, so we wanted to stick with it.
ball consistent credit definitely good guys job knew line offensive run teams tremendous
Teams knew we were going to run the ball and they were stacking guys up there. I think that's a credit to our offensive line for doing a real good job for us, being able to run it pretty effectively, and definitely to Thomas. He's done a tremendous job and has all year. He's been very consistent for us.
appreciate exactly kyle people
You look at most young quarterbacks, that's what you see. I don't think people appreciate exactly what Kyle has done.
clean execution overall pleased
I was pleased overall with the execution. We have things to clean up (but) I thought all that was pretty good.
last looked practice ready week word
I think he should be ready to go. He looked better last week in practice and the word I got last week was that he should be fine. He should be ready this week.
stopping
I think they're going to concentrate on stopping the run, which is what they do.
definitely hurt playing solid
John's playing really well. He's been very solid and steady, and if he's not able to go, definitely that's going to hurt a little bit.
add division football game great next passing playing plays protecting running winning
We've got to have balance. We've got to where we are at right now ? winning the division ? by playing great defense, running the football and protecting the football. Now we need to add the next dimension, which is more big plays in the passing game without sacrificing any of the other three.
beyond obviously
He obviously is not going to play this week, and from there beyond that I really don't know.
adrian deal gone handle nickel normal ready reason
We were going to put Cedric in. The only reason we put Adrian in is because it was a nickel situation, and it was a pass-protection deal that he is (more) ready to handle right now. If it was a normal situation, Cedric would have gone in.
boost excited few given injury kept last mean pleased since surprised weeks
I don't think he's surprised me, but we're real pleased with what he's done. He's kept up especially the last few weeks since he's come back from injury and given us a big boost and we're excited about what that can mean down the road.
double knows middle safety side single strong weak
If we get a single safety look, he knows he's going to look to the weak side and he'll have two reads, ... If it's a double safety look with the middle open, now he's going to look to the strong side and go through his progressions one, two, three.
listen listening music people sorry
Most people listen to music and he's listening to me. I feel sorry for him.
bit couple matter maybe might pick seeing shot taken
Maybe there might have been a couple times when he could have taken a shot down the field, which he'll get. It's a matter of seeing the whole field, and they were disguising a little bit and doing some things he'll pick up.
