assignment came edge missed
The end came off the edge and I missed an assignment there. I didn't get my guy.
ability attacking defense helped played seemed
I think Vince helped us out a lot. The defense has to be very leery of his attacking ability. When he was in the game, it seemed like the defense played a little loose.

We haven't won the games we wanted to win. I thought maybe if I put baseball aside and focus on football, I can get us a step closer to where we want to be.

We kind of came to the conclusion that we were going to practice this week and see how we felt at the end of this week, on Friday, Saturday, something like that.

Thomas was running the ball well. I didn't get much of a chance.

It never really was difficult for me not starting because I understood the circumstances.

I can only control what I do and my preparation for the game. I can't control who they want, so I have really made a point of not getting emotionally involved in the situation.

I've been following what those guys are doing. My time will come.

team time
As a competitor, you want to be out there, making something happen, especially when the team is losing. But my time will come.
along bad couple feedback forgot further percent playoff plays slow
I'll see what kind of feedback I get, but after the first two plays of contact, I forgot about it. It isn't 100 percent completely healed, but it's not bad enough to slow me down. I should be a lot further along in a couple of weeks, come playoff time.
