best business drive owner talk worry
We don't even really talk about it here. This is a new owner and they'll do what they think is best for them. I've been in this business long enough to know you can't worry about it because it will drive you nuts.
great help knows plus
I think he can help a great deal. That's got to be a big plus for us. He knows their personnel, what they like to do, their tendencies.
came effort few hard missed played time
I thought they played very hard and were executing. We had very few missed tackles, which is very big this time of year. We made some plays, came up with some takeaways. You can see the effort was just tremendous.
huge job positive
I think that's a huge positive for the job that we've done.
coming consistency gotten injuries last level seven six
I feel we could have gotten this thing going earlier. I thought we had it going if we didn't have those injuries that kind of set us back. Finally, we got a consistency level here in the last six or seven games. Coming out of camp, I thought we were there, but we weren't.
ask
He'll do anything you ask him to do.
glad ill missed played tired
He showed no ill effects. He got a little tired at the end, but I thought Darren played well. I'm glad to have him back. We missed him. He's a playmaker.
athletic finding offensive playing
He's finding out that he's playing some athletic offensive linemen.
hold knows last rather reacting tackle
He knows when you have to hold back now. He's reacting a lot more to where the tackle is going and making his move, rather than preplanning like he did last year.
talk
We're not going to talk about that. It's been streamlined already.
change performing
We didn't change anything at all. We're just performing better.
guys huge losing playing positive team
You look and see the guys are still playing hard. That's a huge positive for a team with a losing record.
bad good stop tremendous trying
He's an unbelievable talent. I don't think he realizes how good he can be. He has tremendous explosiveness, strength, and he's a good athlete. That's a bad combination for someone trying to stop him.
ability account added dimension puts whenever
He's a nightmare. He's an added back out there because of his ability to run. You've got to account for him at all times whenever he plays. He puts an added dimension in your planning.
