Things have slowed down, and I just see it now.
confidence developed gets great lifts mental mistakes swagger watched
I've watched Nate develop, and he's developed real fast. His swagger and confidence are really what lifts him up and gets him going. He has a great mental game. He doesn't make mistakes at all. And he has just made some spectacular plays.
ball decisions eat
Sometimes it may look real bad, but those are decisions I have to make sometimes. Sometimes I have to eat the ball if nothing else is there.
almost bad episode twilight
Almost like a bad episode of 'The Twilight Zone'. It was crazy.
anybody figure guys outside people stuff worry
A lot of people on the outside are going to have their own opinions. It's not about who's not here. It's about who's here. We've got to find our ingredients, the right mixture. We can't worry about anybody who's not here and stuff like that. We've got to worry about what we can do with the guys who are here. We've got to figure it out.
check field mean move open shots
You still have to be opportunistic. What I mean by that is when the shots are there, we're going to take them. But when they aren't, I'm going to check it down and find open receivers and move it down the field that way.

That's why you play 16 games. It was only a matter of time before we got out there and did what we're doing now.

That shows I'm not perfect. I've just got to keep battling through it,
might stretch throw
That's how it is. You might go through a stretch like that sometimes. Hopefully, I'll go through a stretch when I throw 12 or 15 touchdowns in a row without a pick.
fed girls next shipped using via
That's hypocritical. We had those girls shipped in via Fed Ex. Next time, we're using UPS.
bit bowl champions close definitely far friend goal last mine moves randy sit spent super time worry year
As far as Randy not being here, personally, he's a close friend of mine and we spent a lot of time together, so it's definitely a little bit different in that sense. But time moves on. We have a goal to be NFC champions and Super Bowl champions. We don't have time to sit and worry about who was here last year and who's not here this year.
air ball efficient exciting far fun move throughout
As far as being efficient and able to move the ball in the air like we always have, I think we will be. We've been doing it in the preseason and in the minicamps. I know we can move the ball. It's going to be fun and exciting to do that throughout the season.
best bringing calling coach couple ended good ideas plays throughout today tried worked
We tried a couple of things throughout the week. It ended up with Coach Tice doing it. Coach Loney was up in the booth, calling plays down. He is always bringing up good ideas and he is the (offensive coordinator). But the best way for us today was Coach Tice calling them in. It worked for us and got us in rhythm.
