defensive depend eight guys judge looking recruiting speed work
We've got a lot of guys that have size, speed and quickness. I always judge our recruiting by linemen and this has been an exceptional year. We're always looking for guys at defensive line. We feel like all eight of these guys will have a chance. It will depend on them... and their work ethic.

area basically bomb electricity everybody food goes home meet miami practice realize sunday sure tomorrow
We called practice off on that Sunday and basically said we'll meet back here tomorrow afternoon, everybody go home and make sure everything's safe. You don't realize the devastation that happens. It's like a bomb that goes off. In the Miami area there wasn't any water, food . . . or electricity for a month.
ball drives execute finish line man men nine playing strengths
We were not able to finish off drives and execute and put the ball in the end zone. When they have nine men on the line of scrimmage and are playing man coverage, you have to take to strengths and use them.

The next few days, he'll visit a couple teams (to) see if there's any interest that he's wanted to get back into the NFL. We'd love for David to stay. He's done a great job for us, but I don't want anybody on my staff that doesn't have aspirations of a future in whatever they want to do. He did a good job for us.

It was a good day of practice. It was the last practice in any pads; tomorrow we will just be in helmets. All of the game plan is in. Everybody is ready to go. It was a fun day, but we're winding it down, and tomorrow we'll get in more of a game-type mood.

It was a good victory for us, ... It wasn't one of our best games, but we had some great individual performances.
attention ball gears good guys lack practice reason running shift spring throwing today tomorrow turn
It was a good practice today. We concentrated more on throwing the football. Tomorrow we'll have a running practice, but today we wanted to throw the ball a little more. There was good enthusiasm. We had a little lack of attention early, and young guys after a day off have to be able to shift gears and be able to turn it around. That's the reason you play spring ball.
