It's going well. It's a slow process, and there's just a healing element to the whole thing.
I walked away from that game the whole night pensive, thinking, 'Was there anything else I could have done?'Â
I've got to be honest, ... I was kind of wondering how it was going to all play out.
I've got big plans for (today). I'm going over to the facility, talking with the coaches a little bit, talking a little football. It's just a time to get to know each other. It's wild. I'm having fun with the whole process, but it's a little stressful at the same time.
It was 50-50. Give it to the best running back in the league or throw it to the best tight end in the league.
That's all right. He made some nice grabs for me. Can't complain. What is it, maybe his second drop of the season? I'll let it slide. Just this time.
They were a really young defense last year. They're still young but very talented, and (they) just continue to get more and more experience every time they're (on the field) together.
You can't give the other team an opportunity when we have them 21-3 to come back and make it almost a 21-17 game, ... Our defense played championship football. Our offense played winning football. We didn't play championship football.
The guy on the other side is not too shabby,
The guy is super athletic. Handing the ball off to him in nine- and 10-man fronts, when you bottle him up like that, that's hard for anybody. But you get him out in space, good luck tackling him, and especially on turf.
The idea was to be real inconspicuous, shoot over there, watch some of the game, don't be a bother, come back,
The last two weeks we had been getting touchdowns. It's very disappointing.
The linebacker had his back to him. If I throw it out in front, I've got to make a perfect throw. I throw it in the back of the linebacker knowing, because I trust Keenan, he'll adjust and make a play.
I think the penalties were down and I think the tempo was much better, ... We went no huddle for the majority of the game and that provides tempo and rhythm for us. Once you start getting a few first downs, you are able to really get going.
