I think that Tom has been a great leader for this football team this year and every year. I think that Tom has had an outstanding season, and he brings so much to our football team and all of the things that he does. His preparation, his work ethic, his toughness. His ability to lead this team and lead the offense. He's an outstanding quarterback. I'm glad he's our quarterback.
The overall competitive nature he brings as an owner and as a franchise (still exists),
If you don't stop the running game, it doesn't matter whether you can stop the passing game or not. They don't ever have to throw it if they don't want to. To me, against a team like Atlanta, if you can't stop them from running, it doesn't really matter what else happens.
If you're not really good in the running game and you're not really good on third down, you're probably not going to be really good defensively,
If you're drafting a guy, especially if you're drafting him high, you would like to think that he'd be around a little bit longer than the first day of training camp. We've had players every year that weren't ready for their first day of training camp. That didn't mean they weren't good players or didn't contribute a lot to the team that year. I don't think that's the final evaluation.
Football's a contact sport. Tackling, that's what defensive football is, getting the guy with the ball on the ground.
It was a tough game. We've got a lot of work to do, in all areas. There's just things we need to do better and I to do better.
It was a tough game to coach. I was having a heart attack out there.
It was a terrific game, came down to the last play,
It's a combination of things. Sometimes we've missed blocks. Sometimes we've missed an assignment and didn't block a guy that we should have blocked.
It's hard to get four quarterbacks the amount of reps that are really productive. You know, we've got two players that really haven't played any football at all for this organization and we're going to have to make some kind of evaluation on where they are. And the only way to evaluate them is to see them play.
It's hard to win when you give the ball away.
It's been a while since I've seen a more dominating team than what Pittsburgh has been in these first two regular-season games. They really haven't been in a competitive game. ... They're the best team in the league this year.
