This is exciting to be able to play on a more forgiving surface. |
This is something that if you let it go, it could become a real issue. |
This is the best I've felt, ... And when you feel this good, you feel like you should be working. |
This is very difficult for me. But I know this is the right thing to do health-wise. |
Those are the kinds that will be dealt with. That kind of thing can never be accepted. That cannot happen, or you cannot play. |
Tommy's toe, the best way of explaining it, it was just hanging there. It was a complete reconstruction. We've got to watch how we use him, but he's been great. |
We can be as good offensively as any team we've had here. |
We can play power football with him down after down, ... He can take that punishment. |
We did not play him, obviously, because we feel like he's ready to play and start the season. Didn't see the risk in playing him. |
We didn't play well. I know what happened; you all know what happened. You saw it. A good, old-fashioned whipping is what we took. |
We don't do that. You don't take yourself out. |
We feel very fortunate and blessed it wasn't anything more serious. |
We got going all right. There's some things you can get to. And I'm proud of the way they responded to it. The linemen didn't bat an eye. They just kept going. |
We had a couple big plays in that game that had no business ever happening. For whatever reason, they did occur. |
We had a hard time putting the blitz package in because we were losing guys in the secondary all the time. You had both corners out at one time. You had the nickel (back) out at one time. So you can't do that when you have a rotating secondary, because you're going to get mistakes and you're going to get (beaten) by it. |
