It sort of screwed me up. I couldn't figure out what was going on. They had a quarterback in, four tight ends and a receiver and there was no kicker.

It took us out of sync a little bit,

It was a close call. You don't want the game to come down to that situation if you're playing like you're supposed to for the 60 minutes in the game. Secondly, we need to be (holding) the ball so it's not close.

It was a difficult decision because I thought he was doing very well and making a lot of progress. I don't think it's a situation right now where we can wait for a guy for a significant amount of time.
|
It was a good opportunity for us to go out and practice in not so favorable conditions, and that may benefit us someday down the road.
|
It was a heavyweight fight. A real street fight. Both teams competed their hearts out. It was about as physical a game as I've seen in a long time.

It was great that Ronnie Brown got untracked a little bit. We told him we were going to work him today. As the game wore on, it looked like he got a little better. Maybe that'll be a sign for us in the future.

It wasn't very effective when the guy fell down and they ran 50 yards for whatever, which to me was the biggest play in the first half.

It will be a challenge for our players to face the defending Super Bowl champions in their first game. It just reinforces the importance of our off-season program and training camp to make sure we're ready to play at a high level to begin the season.

It would be very unfair to put it on that position when things aren't being done well around them.
|
It's about how the players play and compete. I know everybody is going to equate that on winning or losing, like they always do, but if we play hard and compete well in the game ... then I think we are building on something.
|
It's an expectation: What are the most important things to accomplish at this time? To find out as much as we can about what those combinations are may be more important at this time than the end result so we can build on a better end result in the long term.

It's been wonderful. I really do feel like this was coming home to play a game and it was exciting for me even though I didn't say it (earlier). It was exciting to be back in Tiger Stadium and I feel really great that our team did a nice job to make us proud of how they played.
|
It's certainly an area that, if the opportunity presents itself, we will try to make some improvements in.
|
It's difficult to know what 15 players are going to get picked before we pick. This is a time when nobody really ever really tells the truth about what they plan to do. We have to be ready and have every player evaluated.
