games good maybe
That's two games in a row. Maybe we are pretty good on defense.
came five football good last minutes
We just came out in that last five minutes and started playing. But we have to have that the whole game. When we do that, we're a very good football team. When we don't, we're average.
good last short talk
We always talk about you're only as good as your last play. You have to have a short memory.
contend excited good grasp guys offense playoff
We will contend for a playoff position, ... The guys are getting a good grasp of the new offense and the defense. We're getting real excited about the season.
best gather good ourselves scatter
The best way to do ourselves good is to be doing good to others; the best way to gather is to scatter
feels focus good hard next work
It always feels good to win, but we have to work hard and keep getting better. That's our focus for the next game.
chance district found game good team
I always found out you're only as good as the backups on your team - they're only a play away from starting. Any chance we can get them in, we are. We don't want district to be the first time. That way, they'll be used to the game and feel more comfortable.
angle attack blitz coming good line offensive run stable stop
Their offensive line is a good one and they use a stable of backs. Defensively, they attack and you don't know what angle they're coming from. We'll have to stop the run and blitz before they get into the backfield.

mistakes won
We won (last week), ... But we know we have some mistakes to correct. But the more we get reps, the better we'll get with our assignments.
athletes capable number
We try to do that. We have a number of athletes capable (of contributing). We don't want to be one-dimensional.
defense line normal thinking
It was very emotional. (Even) at that moment, he's thinking about the team. We told the defense to keep them down there. They were on the one-foot line and they couldn't get their normal distance. We went for the block.
game helps toward win
Each game just helps with our confidence. A win would go a long way toward us making the playoffs.
ball execute move people whenever
Offensively, we can move the ball when we want to, and whenever we have to. I would like to see us execute better and be more consistent. If we want to play with the people in our district, we have to be consistent. We're not there yet.
