I had a quarterback that had a year off. He needed those snaps, ... I wanted to get as many viable snaps with Anthony Wright ? going into the Tennessee game ? as I could. Clearly the game was out of reach, but it was a tactical decision to get Anthony the reps. |

I hate to make the move, but Orlando understands that's what we need to do and hopefully his presence still being around will help us out. |
I have a sense that what this league does to a guy who plays that brilliantly is beat up on him pretty good. |
I have no doubt that Chester can be an every-down back. That is not part of my thought process right now. |
I just basically talked to him about what we're doing and made sure he wanted to still be around for this stage of rebuilding. We just talked football. Just cleared the decks. I wanted to tell him what's going on and make sure he was comfortable with it all. We didn't even begin to talk numbers, but there was no hesitation on his part. |
I just sensed that we didn't have that same intensity that it takes to win, ... That concerns me a little bit because, compared to last week, where there certainly were errors, I thought we played with a great deal of intensity and passion. I don't know that we did tonight. |
I know this: Elvis told me, 'I want to go to a Super Bowl. I want to go out a winner.' |
I saw a tremendous player in Dwight Freeney playing at the top of his game and as dynamic a presence on the outside rush as there is in the game. |
I see Steve McNair. I still see Keith Bulluck. I see those safeties and that big offensive line, ... They just kind of fire-cracked it. I don't know if they blew it up. |
I think he is soaking up everything, ... I think he has a sense of everything going by for the last time. He enjoys the game and he has that veteran presence to know, 'You know what? This is kind of special. There's a chance I might have been out of football altogether, so I want to enjoy this.' |
I think he really wants to be here. He really wants to be back with us. You never know, but I would certainly hope it happens for us. If we get Duane back, and you look at our defense, what we still have left, we're not starting at ground zero with that group. And that's the perception. |
I think he showed a lot of mental discipline to overcome that [Denver] game. He's got a strong sense of conviction to hold onto the good things he did in Denver but be very cognizant of what he didn't do well and to not let that repeat itself. |
I think Marvin would have been the smarter hire, but I'm biased, |
I think that's a quarterback trying to take on his share of responsibility, |
