Mike is just trying to bring focus to it, attention to it. We have to play within the rules. |
Our offense hasn't changed a whole lot from when we played them last time. We've got two new guards, but basically there's a lot of guys returning - and we had 190 yards rushing against them and we controlled the game with our running game. I think they have to be concerned about that. I know they don't want to have that happen to them again. |
Picking the best receiver, that's for the media and fans to decide. But I wouldn't trade any of mine for anybody else's. |
The tough thing on (Franklin) is we get some new guys in like he's got this week, that means he's got to find time to individually spoon-feed all those players and teach them our system. Who knows how quickly we're going to need them? We could lose a couple more this week. |
The whole day it was kind of an unusual scheme for us. They dropped eight and rushed three. You see that some in 2-minute or third-and-20 but to do it as often as they did on first down, you don't see that very often. |
There are some parallels. They were a great defense coming in and we had our work cut out for us, as we do this week. |
There's no question that's the No. 1 thing we've got to get fixed between now and the Vikings game. We have to get our run game going. |
There's no question we're going to look at Craig a lot this week. He's ready and he's anxious to play. |
Throughout his career, he has always been a guy who trusts his arm and can get the ball through a very tight window sometimes. His instincts have been right more often than wrong. |
We had 190 yards rushing against them and controlled the game with our running game. They have to be concerned about that. I know they don't want that to happen to them again. |
We had hoped to go in that direction more so than we were able to. It hit us late in the week, which was kind of a tough hurdle. But our chances were there. |
We have a nice drive and then get no points out of it. That hurt. |
We have to be ready for both 3-4 or 4-3. Either way, they've got good talent, (and) their defensive tackles (Pat and Kevin Williams) are outstanding. We spent time (in training camp) on the 3-4 and it shouldn't be a big adjustment for us. Regardless of where they line up inside, we've got to block them. |
We kind of know Craig. Craig's played well. But we need to play the other guy (Rodgers) and see what he can do. |
We really like Aaron Rodgers. He had about four bad plays in a game and that made people think he was way off. He's on target to contribute and help us. |
