I anticipate doing the same thing. You do (want to play them more), but you also understand the big picture. For the most part, what we have to do is we have to have a good practice session this week. I think it's very, very important to get some continuity going with our offense. It really just boils down to what we're going to become on offense and play to our strengths. That's the whole key between now and when we open up at Kansas City.
He hadn't played and hadn't practiced a lot.
The first week, he practiced five days in a row, then we gave him a day off. This week was a little different ? one-a-days, now this. He knew it was coming. He knew it was going to be different. We're progressing him, watching him to see where he's at.
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.
He actually told me what the player was trying to say. So I'll leave it at that. The player didn't mean to say we quit. We quit throwing the ball. That's what he meant.
John's on the phone with me for 20 minutes trying to explain what (Lucas) was trying to say,
Some people get enamored with a person's lifestyle,
He's going to play right away. That's what we drafted him for.
I'm optimistic. I've kind of talked to him, but I'm waiting to visit with Chad when he gets here, sit down with doc and round-table with those guys. I rather talk to Chad face to face then through the phone.
It's tough, I anticipate he will be out for the season, ... I've never been in the situation where you lose the No. 1 and 2 quarterbacks in a span of seven plays.
It's tough, I anticipate he will be out for the season,
I'm not listing his as anything yet because I don't know what the tests are. Once I know, I'll let everyone know. I don't hide injuries.
I think Brian is on his way, I really do,
You can score a lot of points and throw it, but if you can't run, you're not winning.
