force giving great jay job taking trying
He was taking what they were giving him. He was slinging it really well. Jay also did a great job of not trying to force it too much.
according certain charles matter mind system wants whatever
I think in a certain system he can play corner. It's just a matter of in his mind does he want to play corner. He can play both, but I don't know what he wants to play. I still think he can do that (bump and run). I think Charles Woodson can do whatever he wants if his mind is right. It's according to what he wants to do.

field game kick
Our mind-set was to get him in the game to kick field goals, and he did that.
anticipate deal sure understand wants
He wants to play. He just wants to make sure he's OK, and I can understand that. That's something you don't deal with lightly. I anticipate he'll be back. I'd say it's 50-50.
anyone anytime chad change games good sorry win won
Anytime you change offenses on a guy, that's tough, ... Chad doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for him. He understands what's going on. At the end of the day, he's going to be a very good quarterback in this league. He's going to win a lot. And he's won. He's won a lot of games here already. He's going to get better and we're going to get better as a team. That's my belief.
laugh point win
At this point, it's 2006, and we got our first win of 2006. It's something to kind of laugh about, but it's important for us to point this organization in the right way. ... Like I have said many times, it's not a condition; it was just a season. It's over for us.
above amazing blows breeze cloud dark hovering needs somewhere
For some reason, the dark cloud won't go away. Kind of just hovering above us. Usually you get a breeze or something, it blows somewhere else. Needs to go away, I know that, got to go away because it's amazing to me.
due figured football needed score
I figured I was due for one. We had to go for it. We a 1-3 football team. We needed to score a touchdown.
coming great guy played season
I've played that position. You get 10 interceptions in one season, that's pretty good. He had a great season for a guy coming off an injury.
looking missed practice run snap time training work
It's not just about the arm, it's all about the technique, the footwork, all the things you have to do to run an offense. He didn't practice (in training camp). I mean, practice is practice. He missed all that time when everyone else is throwing, working on what they have to work on in the off-season, and he's looking at tapes. Every snap is important to this guy. He understands his position. He understands what he has to try and do.
finding god missed playing spring stand strong throw time
If God doesn't give you a real, real strong arm, and you have to stand there and throw it, you have to use your legs, ... still is finding his way in the offense. ... He missed a lot of time in the spring and he's playing his way through it.
days
He was pressing a little bit, and he just couldn't get anything going. It was just one of those days for him.
finish instead keeps third
I think we have to finish off some blocks. We're close, but instead of making 1 or 2 yards, if you finish some things off, you make 4 or 5. All of a sudden, it keeps you out of third and long.
