He played with great consistency. He ran the ball, caught the ball, blocked, did not turn the ball over. |
He threw for greater distance and felt good about that. He also threw a few more passes than yesterday and didn't have any discomfort at all, which is a good sign. |
He took most of the repetitions, all but about six snaps, and was quick and sharp with his throws and his movements. We'll advance along accordingly from here. I think [Wednesday] morning may be a little interesting. But he's come in every day after throwing 70 or 75 balls without any problems whatsoever. |
He was a little sore. He hasn't played in almost a full season. |
He was able to play a lot, and he did play well, ... We wanted to give him a little more opportunity in game situations. The young people all seemed to play well. |
He was an outstanding mentor for Eli all the time he was here. When he was starting and then when Eli became the starter, he was still the same thing. Kurt helped Eli tremendously. The most enthusiastic person on our sideline was Kurt Warner. |
He was frustrated, I'm sure, [but] we can't do that. We need to finish the play. You can't expect the officials to make a call until the play is over. |
He was part of that group, as a safety, that recognized the reverse. The thing I think is important is, we don't want to spend that time on the sideline wondering what his (health) status is. That may be the most important lesson. His value is as a safety on the kickoff team, or better, keeping his nose out of there unless he absolutely has to make the play. |
He was squeezing my hand and moving his legs around. I really don't know what the blow was. It may have been a side blow that just shocked him off to one side. We haven't heard anything more from the medical people, so we're standing by on that. |
He's a football guy, ... He's always around the office. He's always looking at tape. He's always grabbing guys and talking football. |
He's a football player. Now the thing that I really think is important here in talking with him is we don't want to spend that time on the sideline worried, you know, what his status is. And that may be the most important lesson as far as Jay goes ... we're better off keeping his nose out of there unless he absolutely has to make the play. |
He's a very poised young man, ... He played well enough for us to win. |
He's a very unique individual. He's his own man. He has outstanding self-confidence. He has poise, poise under pressure. He has an ability not to be rattled. He can display that when he's on the field or with the media or wherever. He's a young man who has learned greatly from the experiences that he has noticed and followed in terms of his father and his brother. |
He's an incredible athlete and a guy whose conditioning really has been a measuring stick for everybody in this league. It is so easy for us to point to Jerry Rice when we are trying to make a strong message with a player who we may not feel is as serious about his game as he should be. |
He's back to gritting his teeth. He's got a job to do and he's trying to do it. |
