I'll worry about the pass routes, young man. You try and hold onto the ball a little more frequently. |
I'm just a cruiser, ... I'm not fast. |
I'm just happy for him that he is playing well, ... A lot of times up here you go through tough things. At any one time in the NFL, you're going to have a number of players on a team who are going through tough situations. A lot of times the way they handle it is a measure of someone's character. I think that was Mark's situation last year and Patrick's situation now. The way you go through the tough times leads you to improvement and great performance in the future. It's a test of character when you go through that. |
I'm looking for someone to establish himself as our quarterback. |
I'm not a karma guy. I don't believe in any kind of luck, either. ... We've been fortunate. I would say that. |
I've appreciated how Patrick has handled the situation all year. It says a lot about him and his character. |
I've been proud of our guys, the way they fight. We fight extremely hard. |
I've got to do some creative thinking about it, ... We do a lot of stuff to emphasize turnovers and taking the ball away in practice. I probably need to think long and hard about it myself. |
I've got to tell you, for a little old guy fighting his guts out, we really like him. We've got some tough decisions there to make, and certainly he stood up. |
If he didn't have the calf situation, he would have practiced, ... He played extremely well. . . . The game was very physical and he got some hits. Quarterback-wise, the odds that we can go through the year like that and keep the guy healthy. . . . I hope we can keep him healthy. |
If I had about $100 million, I could do that ? that's what he left out, ... He makes about $50 million a year, so if I could pop that, he might have a chance. You know you're in the wrong sport when both your drivers have Lear jets and helicopters, and I don't. |
If I had to guess right now, it would be tough for John to make it back for Monday night, ... We'll be working full speed tonight to try to get all that done. |
If I'm somebody that says the team is important and the players and coaches need to sacrifice and I then see an opportunity to help the football team and don't do it -- I would be going against the basic principal of what I preach. |
If that took place, we understand the penalties. We understand somebody being taken out of the game. Sean is so valuable to us. I had a long talk with him afterward, and he understands that. He's all football. He wants to play. He's one of our leaders. He's had an outstanding year. He's very valuable to us. We can't afford to lose somebody like that. |
If there's anybody that's got better long-ball reaction than that guy -- he turned around and snatched that thing from I don't know where. |
