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.
They made big plays on third down and that's what hurt us, ... If you just stop one of those, they're off the field.
I think what's going to help him, he's in with the first group, ... That's always settling for a quarterback, rather than playing with some guys that were probably some good high school, college players, and won't make your team. He had to do that for three years, survived it. Now he's going in with our first group.
I think Brian is on his way, I really do,
I think that's what's going to help him. That's always settling for a quarterback, rather than the preseason when you're playing with some guys that probably were good high school, college players, and probably won't make your team. Teams are blitzing you. That's a scary moment. He had to do that for three years, survived it.

James was a character. He was a good kid. He was kind of a computer nerd. He could do anything with electronics.
I said we're going to put Brooksy in, ... He grabbed me and said: 'No, I can still be O.K. I'm all right.' I said, 'O.K.' I kind of knew where he was coming from. He couldn't throw it very far but he could throw it. He could do some things that we tried to do.
Opening day, I'm not shocked at anything. I've been around for 26 years of opening days, and a lot can happen. We didn't handle it very well. They did a better job of coaching, and they played better.
We have to protect the quarterback. We haven't done that and we need to do that.
We're dealing with a guy who's very resilient, ... I just feel he'll come back. Next year will handle itself.
I tell ya', ... that's the most pampered right arm since Zsa Zsa Gabor slapped that Beverly Hills policeman some years back. But Chad's worth it. He's our guy. As soon as he can throw 20 yards downfield, we'll know he's back at full strength.
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.
I think he thinks in his mind that whatever it takes to come back, he is going to do. So, that's his mind-set. It has always been his mind-set. That's what makes him so special.
