conditions guy points
It's important because those points are going to be at a premium. To have a guy that's been in those conditions is good.
approach fruitful guy starting telling until
Anthony Wright is our starting quarterback and he will be our starting quarterback until circumstances change, ... That's the only approach we can take. It's not fruitful to tell a guy, 'You're the guy part-time,' or telling the other guy, 'You're out for the year.' You just don't do that.
bad bring certain concerned demeanor developed disrupt good guy player team terms together work
Any player you bring in, you have to be concerned about team chemistry. It's not necessarily the guy may or may not be a bad apple. It's just in terms of demeanor and work ethic. We have very good team chemistry. This team has been together for a while and has developed a certain camaraderie. You don't want to disrupt that.
anybody ball delivery familiar guys hand hard helped helps hesitate himself hurts indeed jump nice sure themselves throwing
Ramsey has a nice delivery and the ball comes out of his hand really well. It's hard because they're all throwing to guys they're not familiar with. But he was impressive. I hesitate to say anybody helps or hurts themselves in this environment, but I'm sure he helped himself with some teams. Ramsey could indeed jump into that No. 3 position.
bush guy lead seen
Is Reggie Bush a 350-carry guy? Probably not. Even if he was, I don't know if you want to do it. You need the balance. From what I've seen of him with the 20 to 25 carries, you don't need him for the other 10. You got a 20-point lead and put the other guy in.
awhile build character guys quite saw talking
I've been talking about the character of these guys for quite awhile and I think you saw it tonight. It is something we can and will build on.
approach deals everybody game guy next steps tall
Everybody deals with injuries. We've been there before. The next guy steps up. That's a tall order, but you can't approach the game any other way.
career guy guys joy pass people prepare stage thousand
That's up to Deion. Having him here, as I've said a thousand times, has been phenomenal. It's been a joy for me to be around such a professional, and to see a guy at this stage of his career prepare the way he does and pass that on to people around him is special. Our guys are better for it.
gain lose people player step
Oh, it's huge, it's huge. But you gain some things when you lose a player of that caliber, because other people have to step up.
kyle
Make no mistake, Kyle is responsible for the way he reacted,
arbitrary careful diverse game group number passion personally players
As a coach, there are a lot of things, personally, I may or may not like or would not personally do - not necessarily may be my style, ... But you have to be very careful about inhibiting the passion for this game in an arbitrary way. I've got a very diverse group of players economically, socially, racially, geographically, with a number of different upbringings.
ankle hard high project
Hard to say. The high ankle sprain is always a concern. It would be ill-advised to project at this time.
ability effect force huge lewis reckoned run
Jamal Lewis is a force to be reckoned with. When it's all said and done, barring injuries, he will have a huge effect our ability to run the ball.
ahead brought changes credit deserve forward good jim needed work
Jim was brought in to make the changes that needed to be made schematically, emotionally, strategically and fundamentally for us to go forward in conjunction with some very good coaches. They collectively and Jim individually deserve all the credit for the improvements that we've seen. We've got a lot of work ahead of us.
