He obviously is not going to play this week, and from there beyond that I really don't know.

accepted defense great guys opens running thomas watching
Thomas is running tremendously well and, obviously, that opens up a lot of other stuff. That's a great defense we went against. We were watching film all week, saying, 'What are we going to be able to do?' But our guys accepted the challenge.

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.
expect offensive
No, you don't expect this. And it's not just from a rookie. As an offensive team, we didn't get it done today. You don't expect to go out and play like this.

We're looking hard at tight end, and we're looking hard at a slot receiver type of guy. That's exactly the area we're looking at right now.

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.
