Why wouldn't I be? I love this place. |
Yeah, ... It doesn't take much. Absolutely. I go to sleep at night with that line in my head. |
Yeah, (Barron) is a ways away, ... When Orlando was starting (in '97), offensively, they were kind of finding their way, so to speak. We're fairly well established. So the expectations for whoever would play at that position are pretty high. |
Yeah, when we came in at halftime, the defensive players were extremely animated and upset, ... They said, 'This is the season. We're not going to let this thing slip away.' And they didn't. They came out in the second half and took care of it. |
You are never going to fool Peter. There is nobody in the league that does his homework better than Peter does. He will know everything about you. Whether you sneeze, whether you wheeze, whatever you do. He is going to know everything. Probably as good of film guy as there is in the league on defense. Obviously he plays like that; he just doesn't make any mistakes. |
You can find another coach then. We're going to play fast and furious - get used to it. |
You feel really good and then in the course of a couple hours you hit rock bottom. |
You get caught up in things that don't matter and can get distracted by that. |
You know, in (1999) when I got here, the season before wasn't a very good season (the Rams went 4-12) and the odds of us going to the Super Bowl (in 1999) were pretty slim. So who knows, who really knows? |
You try to take advantage of whatever your strengths are. We've retooled our offensive line, and I'd love to give that ball to Steven and pound it in there and pound it in there and take our shots downfield when we feel like it. That's fun football. That means we've got control of the game. |
You'd like to take two years and school him. Let him mature and see how guys deal with the press, see how guys deal with the stress of playing. See how guys prepare, first and foremost. To me that's the way to let a top-notch player develop at that position. |
You've got to make something happen. If you get something like that, then obviously, there's a scramble to get lined up again, and spike it, or go for another play. We couldn't just sit there and get in another zone defense. |
