Herman Edwards

because it kind of sets up what you want to do on second down.

Brad Richards

I would say it was one of the better teams I've seen.

He's a valuable player. He's one of the top three on the team, so we had a much weaker team this week.

John Green

Patrick Wilson

I am an avid runner, mainly on weekends.
