After his first year, there were a lot people (doubting him). But he fought them off. He did a pretty good job.
That's unusual for that team not to hit the quarterback, ... They usually do that a lot. They didn't hit him once, so I was happy about that.
I'm not a bus-station kind of guy, but there are a few players here I'm not sure want to be here. They've got a brook-trout kind of look.
I just don't think he's had as big of holes, ... A couple of times, if you remember, last year, he got through there a few times.
I'm disappointed with the outcome, I'm not disappointed with the effort. I thought we played pretty solid on defense, until that last run.
I do think I would use him if I felt like the situation warranted whether it would be lopsided or not. I have confidence in the player.
It's not just about Moss, ... They've got more than one vertical threat. They've got some other guys who can beat you.
It was a dumb thought process. The players bailed me out.
Not at all. He was just throwing it indiscriminately then.
We played 56 minutes and 51 seconds worth of pretty bad football.
I'm not satisfied with the position. I don't think we're solid yet.
I'm not overly proud of 9-7. I'm really not. It really wasn't a good performance. It was one of those where you don't have much good to say. I'm just disappointed.
It doesn't look good for Jones. I'm hopeful we'll get over this. I think that's why we're having a tendency to not really push it, because I don't want him to have a reoccurrence and have him be out for the rest of the year.
Listen, the NFL season at best is a tiring process. When you've been going every day since July 29, every single day, it's tiring for me. I don't know what it is for the other guys. When I see them on Sunday, they all look tired, too.
