We're not at that stage of the season, ... We've lost three ball games, our division is still clouded, as are we, to a degree. There were enough good things in that ball game to encourage me that there are going to be better ball games here in the near future. I've seen it before. |
We're not going to make it look pretty and say, 'Well, we've been here before,' ... We have 14 games to play and we can't panic. But I don't think you can tell them the glass is half full when it's not. |
We're obviously concerned because he's a valuable part of our offense, ... We will not know on his status for this weekend until later in the week. |
We're taking it day-by-day right now. |
We've been meeting with both of those players around the clock for the most part and getting them ready to go. |
We've been meeting with him around the clock for the most part. He seems to be very adaptable and has picked up quite a few things. We put him out there on the field this evening and he seemed to handle things quite well. ... I didn't see him make any mental errors out there. |
We've been talking about it, and I said I would get it cleared up. And I haven't, |
We've got to figure this thing out. We will. I'm confident we will. |
We've kind of spoon-fed him some things and gotten him used to what we're doing. But really, two games, two touchdowns, big catches, that's exciting. |
We've practiced this play, I just haven't called it, |
Well, certainly it's limiting. How limiting? They've all run the run plays that we are calling. We've had to limit it going into this thing anyway in case this in fact did happen, so we prepared that way. But it does limit you some. I'd be misleading you to say it didn't. |
Were there a couple plays he wishes he had back and I wish he had back? Yeah. But those things would have happened a year ago, two years ago as well, |
What do you think this is? (I) have them locked to their desk? We're going to get some time off, |
What do you think this is? (I) have them locked to their desk? We're going to get some time off. And, they deserve it. They worked real hard. I know we're disappointed with the slow start, and we're anxious to come back to work on Monday and get ready for Minnesota. |
What happens when adversity strikes? And it will, and we'll have to work through those issues. It won't always be the good times in the preseason when everyone's patting you on the back. |
