best care good great openly possibly rest stuff talk winning
Let's talk about winning first before we talk about anything else. We need to win some games. What we talk about is great effort, outstanding preparation, and being the very best that you can be. If you are as good as you can possibly be, the rest of that stuff will take care of itself. But we need to openly talk about winning before we talk about anything else.

There is nothing that has surprised me, because I think I know the player and he's practiced well and performed well in games. He's done a lot of good things and hopefully there are a lot more good things to come.
athletics breaking care coming competitor continue excited good great keeps perspective played position records remarkable takes tremendous verge work
First and foremost, he's an outstanding athlete. He has to be or else he wouldn't be in this position. He takes great care of himself. He's a competitor by nature. He has a great sense of humor, which I think keeps everything in perspective for him, good or bad. But, to play as long as he has played and to be on the verge of breaking these records is a tremendous accomplishment. For someone to be in a position that he's in and having done this for so many years and continue to be excited about coming to work every day and the opportunities he has is really a remarkable thing.

For a long way into the game Tim played well, he did a lot of good things. Whether he tried to press, whether he tried to do more than he should have ... . I'm not disappointed in the way Tim played, but I was looking for a continuation of the kind of start he made.

best board continuing defense excitement game gives good points special track win
I think it's a good thing to be able to win and to put points on the board and to not have our best day at quarterback. It only gives me more excitement about the future, about game in and game out getting Eli back on track and continuing to play very well on defense and on special teams.

If you are as good as you can possibly be, the rest of that stuff will take care of itself. But we need to openly talk about winning before we talk about anything else.

He's playing strong; he's in very good shape, ... We'll see, you never know. As the season moves on, he may want to put a couple of pounds on. But right now, he's gone the entire preseason this way. He feels good at that weight, so good.
continuing correction couple good plays responsibility scope
He had a couple plays I thought were good and a couple there would be a little correction on, ... He's continuing to widen the scope of responsibility and I like what he's doing.

His last couple of weeks have been generally positive. He was good under fire against the Patriots last week.

I just see a guy that's a football player, that has outstanding ability, who's trying to be as good a player as he possibly can, ...

He's pretty much even-keeled in his approach. When his play was lavished with praise, I think he handled that well, and he handles the criticism well. I think he's extremely motivated to be as good as he can be.

He's progressing well. He feels good about it. The soreness is gradually dissipating. I would say he's on schedule for the opener, although we're going to be cautious. I don't see him playing this week.
