ready
We were ready to go from the jump,
facing maybe mixed run takes weapon
We mixed it up. When you're facing that kind of coverage, maybe (Moss) doesn't go out and run like he usually would run. In his mind, he's thinking, well, I can't get past. It takes a weapon away from that offense.
affect business happen side
There is a business side of the game. You may write about it, we may read about or see it on TV, but it does not affect what is going to happen between those lines.
happens hard intent moss possession ran route run top waiting
Moss is spectacular, we all know that. But with me waiting over the top for him most of the afternoon, you could see the frustration in his eyes, in the way he ran his routes. That's not something that happens with T.O. Every route run is hard and crisp. Every possession has an intent to it.
game last year
No year is a cakewalk. Last year, we just steamrolled through people. Every game is not going to be like that.
imagine push sure takes whatever
Mentally, I just can't imagine what he's going through right now. But he's tough. He's going to push through this. I'm sure he'll do whatever it takes to get back.
giving stop
We're just giving up too many big plays, ... We've got to stop giving up so many big plays.
attention attributes brings featured guy last pay physical plays porter randy saw though top year
Last year you saw Porter do his thing a little bit. He was the featured guy and he made some big plays for them . . . Though you have to pay attention to Randy because of all the physical attributes he brings to the game, you still have to pay attention to Porter, because the guy can still go up top on you. He is a big guy (6-2, 220) that can run.

knows
Only Terrell knows what he is going to do.
breaks happened hoping praying training
Oh, yeah, a tad bit. To have the things that have happened this off-season and going into training camp, it has been a lot different than anything I've experienced. I'm hoping and praying that nothing else breaks out.
feet stations
One of our stations went 11 feet under. The other went 4 feet under.
definitely lost overlook previous second win
There's no way you can overlook an opponent, first of all, but second of all, we lost the previous game, so we definitely have to come out and try to win this one.
position
There's no way in the world I ever would have thought we would be in this position that we are in right now.
