[On the first play of a seven-on-seven drill, linebacker Ray Lewis intercepted a Ramsey pass intended for H-back Chris Cooley near the right sideline. The play brought a roar from the crowd and a grimace from Ramsey.] I missed some throws early that were pretty routine throws, ... but I felt like after that we did a little bit better. |
As Coach said, I don't agree with the decision, but the decision has been made. |
As long as I play within myself and do my job, I think we're going to be fine offensively. |
Coach Gibbs is very straightforward, |
he began ... is that, well, the team needs to grasp the ball more firmly. |
He's loosened me up a little bit. I was pretty uptight before he got here, so I think it's been good for me in a lot of ways. |
Honestly, I feel I'll be able to learn more from this film than the previous film, |
I don't think we have to be as perfect as far as our passes and as perfect as far as our play-calling because we have so many athletes who can do something with the ball after the catch. |
I have a lot of respect for both Brooks Bollinger and Chad Pennington, and the work they have put into the Jets. I look forward to working with my new teammates and coaches. |
I haven't specifically told Coach [Gibbs] I want a trade in any way. |
I know that's something we're certainly going to focus heavily on this week. What exactly he's going to do to stress it, I don't know, but I know for certain he's going to do that. The first couple of preseason games we didn't have as many penalties, but unfortunately we regressed. |
I think because it is probably tied together, it's easy not to think about it and focus on this week. |
I think we were able to move the ball and get some big plays |
I think we were able to move the ball and get some big plays ... That was the obvious difference in our offense. But at the same time, we need to find the middle ground between those big plays and turnovers. |
I wish the best for Mark. He's been nothing but great to me and for me since he came here. |
