I'm not ruling anybody out yet. |
I'm not sitting here trying to make excuses for our failure. But still, we can accomplish a little bit of a better taste in our mouths if we can win the game on Sunday. |
I'm pissed. It doesn't look good after last year [when the Vikings also had trouble turning in their first-round card in a timely fashion], but it wasn't our fault. |
I'm pretty certain that that won't go down as a pretty victory. But we'll take it. ... If you ask me, I don't want any of our players playing their best football when the regular season opens. We've been there before. We've started 6-0 and 5-1, and you know what happened after that. I want them to crescendo toward the end of the season. |
I'm really thinking what we can do better to play well on the road, because this game doesn't mean anything if we don't play well next week. The confidence will help our team. But how do we win on the road? That's the key. That's the next issue. |

If it was a concern, I wouldn't have shown up. What's wrong with a little competition? All I asked for was an opportunity to put myself and my program in front of them. |
If we continue to get blown out, ... I think Mr. Wilf and I will have a discussion, and I won't have to resign, regardless if he says I'm the head coach for the rest of the season. |
It all starts with us winning a game against Baltimore. Because all the scenarios you can paint, and all the pictures you can paint, will not be completed unless we win a game against Baltimore. |
It came evident to me as a veteran player that he was going to get caught up in the numbers. We have a number of bright, young prospects who are ahead of him on the depth chart, not only as far as defense is concerned, linebacker, but as far as play-making is concerned on special teams. |
