I'll throw my mantra out there again. I'm calling on the fans to step to another level, |
I'm accountable. I'm responsible. Make no mistake. We recognize what we did, and don't feel good about it. |
I'm excited about the way Jamal ran, ... Jamal clearly had a rhythm and got stronger as he went. |
I'm excited, excited about the way this team responded and proud of the way they handled the pressure all week long, the attitude they brought into the stadium, ... They responded just the way you wanted them to. |
I'm going to have to bite my tongue on this one. |
I'm going to have to bite my tongue on this one. We'll continue to deal with the process that he has to deal with. It seems to be ever-changing at times. |
I'm proud of the way they handled the pressure all week long. They responded just the way you wanted them to. This is a day for the players, so I'll let you talk to the players. |
I'm sure it does to a degree for the players, ... I know it does for me, but you don't start camp with that mentality. We've spent an entire offseason addressing and looking very candidly at why that happened and addressing the reason for it. This team needs to move forward very aggressively. We're very proud of the legacy we have here, but this team's going to have a new identity, it really is. It's different than any team we've had. |
I'm told that it's not serious and it's typical. |
I've been talking about the character of these guys for quite awhile and I think you saw it tonight. It is something we can and will build on. |
I've got a quarterback that's had a year off, ... I wanted to get as many viable snaps, game snaps, with Anthony Wright going into the Tennessee game that I could. |
I've got to be responsive to the needs and the passions in the way my players feel like they need to play the game but also make sure there is a very clear line of demarcation as to what is acceptable and what is not. |
I've got to get back to being a head coach. That involves the relationship with your players, albeit understanding the relationship between player and head coach is well-defined. That doesn't mean you can't pull yourself back into that environment more effectively. I have to be more responsive and helpful to my assistant coaches, to give them the platform and the resources they need to be successful. |
I've lived in the Baltimore area for seven years and I am always amazed at the passion and anger you still have for the Colts leaving Baltimore, |
I've told our guys, let's just get to the midpoint of the season and stick our heads up out of the sand and take a look around, see where we're at, ... And if we're still in this thing, and Pittsburgh hasn't run away with the division, I won't be embarrassed at all to be in the playoff race or to be going into the playoffs at 8-8. Not one bit. We feel pretty good about ourselves. |
