It cleared up room so that we can sign of our own players back and go out into free agency. Because Derrick is interested in getting another ring.

He didn't have to stand up, ... He's not the reason we lost to the Jets.

Improve two of those categories, and we'll be good. Improve in three, and we'll be pretty good. Improve in all four, and, we'll, who knows?
behavior club days discuss expect far few full individual jay met morning publicly responsibility talked time understood whether
I met with Jay Gruden this morning and talked a lot about individual responsibility. We talked about being a part of a team, which he understood well. It's not the behavior you really expect in a coach, whether you're part time or full time. Unfortunately, as I said just a few days ago, I'm not going to discuss publicly what we'll do as a club as far as discipline.

He was the best quarterback we thought could help us right now, ... He's a real good fit for us. And the fact he has experience allowed us to look at tape -- we watched every one of his plays since Monday night -- and we feel very comfortable that we know what we're getting.

affect almost asked attitude discussing helping league optimistic order player players situation specific spent talk time today unfair
Not because of who you asked about, I think it's unfair to talk about specific players at this time. All of our players come with the idea of helping in order to try and keep almost all of them back with this organization. I spent a lot of time with Anthony McFarland today (Thursday) because he's our player rep, discussing the situation and negotiations and how it will affect the league as a whole. I'm pretty optimistic about the attitude of the Buccaneer players.

anyone best effect example grown men overcame overcome saints three type win
They are distractions, but they are distractions for those three individuals more than anyone else. You can see with grown men in our league, you have to overcome any type of distraction. The (New Orleans) Saints are the best example with what they overcame to win (at Carolina). I don't think it will have an effect on the team.

The league moved the deadline back 72 hours so it allows teams and players more time to work with the last capped year calculations and that is what we have been doing (Thursday) and will continue to do this weekend.

They are individual incidents. But we're part of the same team, ... It reflects poorly on the team. ... Fortunately, no one's hurt. Hopefully, everyone learns from it.

Really, we're in no different position than we have been, although we made a lot of progress.
