free good last past people period productive year
We are still working free agency. I think last year our most productive period was about from now even on past the draft. It's still ongoing. There won't be as many big-name people come down, but there's a lot of good need-type, value-type people still out there.
guys hard people ways
There are many ways for guys to lead. Conduct. Toughness. How hard you hit. Different people can be that guy.
broken felt glasses interview kept people talking tony
Most people would see that their glasses were broken and do the interview without them. But Tony felt it was important to see who he was talking to, so he kept the glasses on.
people players treat
If we know players don't treat the cafeteria people the way they treat the coaches, that's important to find out.
hear people pick
No, but I hear about it. People will tell us that Mel said your pick stunk.
fitting higher people
We're higher than I would like. But with a transition, you're going to get this. People who aren't fitting are not going to be here.
job people round second
I think people do a better job in the second round because the pressure's off.
across bought deserve drive enjoy job leaning line people playing rest road step team
The people who step across the line and get the job done deserve the credit. They enjoy playing with each other, they have each other's back, and they've really bought into the team concept. You drive down a road and see a road crew, two of them are working and the rest are leaning on their shovels? I lean on a shovel.
great high moral people system talk talks team tony value work
What you see with Tony is what you get. He doesn't just talk it and not do it. He talks it and does it. He's a great man. High moral character. High value system and he instills that in his team and the people that work with him.
people stay talk touch
We'll talk again. I know their people real well. They're going to stay in touch and we'll see where it goes.
bring draft gotta people
You've gotta draft well. You have to bring the right people in.
game great joy quite ready threw watch win year
(The Panthers) weren't ready for some of that stuff, which threw them off. And that's how you win big games. Mike's called it great all year long; he's quite a game manager, and he's been a joy to watch this season.
coach knew sets teammates tempo usc
We knew that his teammates at USC rallied around him. His coach, Pete Carroll, went on and on about his intangibles. He sets the tempo for a defense. He's very confident.
focused good player return somebody
We're not just going to be focused on that, even on Day 2 if he's a good special-teams player and not a return guy. But I would think that we would come away with somebody who does one or both.
