We'll have to evaluate that based on Jerome's injury and after we've looked at the tape. |
We're going to take our shots. We're going to put it up. I trust our receivers to make plays. |
We've been pleased with what we've seen in some of our pass-catchers, ... I think, once they all get their timing down, we have a chance to make some plays in the passing game. Ben is working well with those guys. |
We've done a lot this training camp, |
We've had a couple situations in a game where we wanted to get him the ball, ... But, for whatever reason, the coverage hasn't worked out right and we've had to throw the check-down or we got blitzed on the play. |

We've kind of gotten into a little bit of a rhythm the last four weeks, more us. That identity was one that was very good for us last year, and we've been operating pretty good with that the last month. |
What Ben saw was good, ... He trusted it, which is what you want him to do. And then I told him, 'You just gotta trust your guy to make a play.' |
What has happened at that position is you have bigger guys who can run a little bit, and certainly when you have a bigger target it makes it a lot easier to find them. People are playing zones and giving you the middle of the field in certain situations. |
When I was finished after the 1993 season, there was something missing. After being involved with it for so long, when Saturday and Sunday rolled around and football was going on and you weren't involved, there was a void there. |
When you have a different receiver every day, there's timing issues involved. The thing I've been most pleased with is, a lot of times, we're just missing (on pass attempts). Ben's getting it to the right spot, so hopefully, it's just a timing issue with all the different guys out there. |
Whenever he is in there, he is a threat and you never know what he is going to do. That gives you more of an element of unpredictability. |
You can't point the finger at that. There were a lot of factors involved with that game. We certainly weren't giving him a lot of time to throw the ball at times. |
You can't take away his ability to create when he gets out of the pocket, |
You definitely have to account for it, |
