The defensive front as a whole did a nice job. Going into the ball game I was so concerned about the fact [the Lions] were just going to pound the ball on us against our front. |
The doctors, and their conservative nature as it is, thought it was ill-advised to put him out there last week. I'm glad we didn't. I think the extra week definitely has helped him. |
The guys feel good about themselves. That's a positive. I think they believe in what we're doing and how we're doing it. |
The only concern I have is how is he playing right now, and he's playing pretty good. So, I feel good about that. |
The only friends they really have in Green Bay right now are in that locker room, ... We've got to figure this thing out. And we will. |
The other two guys have come on, |
The play had to change three times in that process based upon the fact that we had penalties, ... I was very frustrated about that and expressed that to those individuals. |
The Reggie White scenario was huge for us. There was plenty of motivation. That locker room was visibly upset with the loss. |
The thing is the guys battled. They didn't stop. I think the team as a group are fairly resilient, fairly together. I don't see them cracking in spite of any of the adversity we face. |
The things you don't have control over, you don't worry about. I have control over my attitude, my perception, how I do things, and you do the very best job you can. Other people have control over other things and you let them do their jobs. |
The wind was not a factor on any of the missed kicks. I know the ball was spinning as they put it down on the first one. The second one, I don't know. |
Then, to get him back on the field, it would have been a little bit of a rush and probably not in his best interests. So, we felt like this, as an organization, was the best way to go, ... I know his parents were pleased with that decision. He just wants to get well and I think this time allows him the opportunity to do that. |
There are definitely spots available to be had by certain players. That 53rd, 52nd, 51st, 50th spots are still wide open. |
There are no (pass) routes on that play. We are blocking on that play. They guessed right and I didn't, and they made the play of the game. |
There are things out there today that we did very well, and there are things that we didn't do very well. Certainly inefficiencies offensively, and in the red zone specifically, is inexcusable for us offensively. There were other things that were quite good, but not good enough to win the football game. |
