We're going to try to fit him with a brace and see where he's at.
Warrick was with us in Tampa so I've known him since he was a rookie,
We thought we brought him along right, ... So happens to be all of a sudden now something is happening. I just think that's what we all understood, so that's what we did. That was the plan. We didn't jump to a conclusion. We had a plan and that was the plan.
We knew it wasn't going to be pretty at times,
We've been through a horrific season. It's not fun for the players, it's not fun for the organization. We just kept fighting. That's something to say about those men in that locker room.
Turned the ball over five times in a row, that's one, OK?
You look at the league and 25% of your team will not come back. Guys will retire, there are salary-cap restrictions and guys just don't meet the team's needs. That's a fact; your team will change.
Ty Law all of a sudden is going to start, ... Is he in shape to go 77 plays? I don't know that. John Abraham is going to play. How many plays can John Abraham play? I don't know that.
Ty Law, all of a sudden, is going to start. Is he in shape to go 77 plays? I don't know that. How many plays can John Abraham play? I don't know that. . . . I don't know if they're concerns, but I haven't seen it live.
We'll get better as the year goes on, ... We've got a young, athletic front seven, and we play with a lot of energy and enthusiasm as a football team. I think that's what people will notice about us -- but hopefully they won't notice us for a while.
You know when you stub your toe, you do everything that day to stay away from it, and you hit it three more times, right? That's what happens in the game. It's sore.
We'll miss him, there's no doubt about that,
We followed what the doctors told us to do and that is what coaches do,
This is what's great about sports. This is what the greatest thing about sports is. You play to win the game. Hello? You play to win the game. You don't play it to just play it. That's the great thing about sports: you play to win, and I don't care if you don't have any wins. You go play to win. When you start tellin' me it doesn't matter, then retire. Get out! 'Cause it matters.
