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 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.

We only put three points on the board. We had some opportunities but we just couldn't quite get it done.
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.
When we first watched him in college, we knew he was an athletic guy who could make plays. We liked his ability to play in space. We always felt that that he was getting better and better, so we liked him from the beginning. (He's) become a pretty great player for us, a good sub guy that really can play all three (linebacker) positions.
His stamina is the best it's ever been. I think it's more consistent. He's not making mental errors and he's just playing hard. Before, James seemed good for about two or three plays, but now I think he knows that he's the starter and he's the guy.
We wanted Donnie to follow his heart and this is best for him and his family. He provided us with three solid seasons and he's a class act on and off the field.
The next three or four teams we play, basically until our bye, have very good defenses. They're in the top-10 (defensively), so it could be ugly football for us.
That is what a playoff team looks like. There is a reason they go to the playoffs every year and have won three world championships. They got off to a fast start.
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.
I think Brian is on his way, I really do,
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.
