We were able to escape that. But there are so many people in the New Orleans area who can't escape it. There's nowhere to go. ... You're looking at years to when this place is going to be back anywhere near what it was. |
We were caught by surprise when we got to the stadium and Brandon had a stomach virus, ... He had a 103-degree fever. We were fortunate it was this game. |

We were not able to finish off drives and execute and put the ball in the end zone. When they have nine men on the line of scrimmage and are playing man coverage, you have to take to strengths and use them. |
We weren't ready to play. |
We weren't ready to play. We weren't in sync. We couldn't get anything going. |
We wholesale substituted these last two games to see where they’re at, |
We would have liked to have played one of those first five away, but that's just how the schedule works out. Our players are excited, and we'll be ready to play. |
We'll move him there and see what that gives us going through the first week, week-and-a-half of practice. |
We'll play when we get there, I guess. It's not our fault that we can't get down there. You'd love it if this game had been in the day where you could have a little leeway in case there's bad weather. Obviously the conference is not worried about that, so we're just going to go down there and play and hopefully we can get down there in time. |
We're blocking better, staying on longer, and staying on blocks down the field. It's all about confidence. It was hard, opening up with two tough teams like that, but we've been building it back. |
We're fortunate we've got two good ones at that position. Brandon is very confident in both those guys. He knows what they can do, limits and strengths. |
We're getting a little bit antsy, getting tired. Tired of practicing, running the same plays, running the same defenses. |
We're glad to have him back. I was one of the guys that said we were going to miss him because he brought a lot to our conference. He brought a lot of interest back. We look forward to playing him. |
We're going to have to get away from the system as we know it and add one more game. Actually, it'd probably be good to have three or four undefeated teams every year and they would have to make a change, because there would be such an outcry. They're probably thinking it won't ever happen. But sooner or later you're going to have three or four teams that should be playing for it and not have the opportunity. So if you got a flaw in the system, it is easy to fix it. |
