I told him to think about it. Well, (Tuesday) afternoon he and I sat down and talked. He told me, 'Greg, Carol (Vermeil's wife) and I spent a long time (Monday) night talking about it. We believe it is the right thing. |
I wasn't going to predict anything before the game, ... Now I know where we're at. |
I'd like to believe we hurt ourselves more than they hurt us. It was dysfunctional management. We had to use timeouts, we had a delay of game penalty, two personal fouls ... We lost our emotion out there, and it hurt us. |
I'll tell you what. I keep mentioning Bruce Williams. This guy's like clockwork. He's really making an impression on me. |
I'm very excited about (White) coming to be our quarterback coach. I've been very impressed, and I've talked with him about his philosophy, his fundamentals and the teaching progression that a quarterback or a group of quarterbacks goes through. He'll do a fine job in that area. |
I've always had a real love for Northwest art and some of the traditions here. Part of the reason I'm so interested in the museum is being able to focus on this region and really understand it. |
I've been beaten worse than this, trust me. I like the way our guys fought back in the second half. |
I've known Dave for a long time. And Dave ain't feeling sorry for me, and I ain't feeling for Dave. |
I've talked to her after games and she is just the most down-to-earth person you could meet. I can imagine just being her coach. She does whatever you need her to do to. |
It behooves me. It came in every shape and size. When it rains, it pours. We worked very hard on that all through camp, all through spring. Maybe our emphasis hasn't been strong enough lately. How many times was the ball on the ground? Nine times. That's ridiculous. That's bad coaching. |
It looks like (the team's going backwards), but I don't know if that's part of the deal. I don't know that. It's not looking good right now. I can tell you that. We have to get the offense rolling. We have to. Defense is fighting to hold their own. And to keep pulling like that, the other side has to turn the corner. That's the bottom line. |
It seems that families today have more activities to do. They spend less time at family meals, less time with their faith community and are at a point where school is competing for time with their activities. |
It was a great effort, ... but it also says a lot about the offensive line. |
It wasn't a matter of just getting Damien untracked, but getting the whole offense untracked. Damien would be the first to tell you that there were a couple holes there that I could have run through. |
It's funny. With this system, when you take what they give you, you never know who it's going to be. Obviously we utilize the tight end in our system. Most West Coast offenses, the tight end is a big, big part. |
