We had so many injuries last year. I was kind of praying that we'd be much more in a good-health situation when we got to the regular season.
Brandon's super important to us and what we decided was it was probably best for the team and for him to put him on IR instead of rushing him back,
Everything in the world today happened to Tony, and he still finished fifth. I got to tell you, that's pretty miraculous right there.
Everything is on the table. We didn't have the production we wanted late in the year. But we did make a big jump. It's a matter of evaluating everything and seeing the ways that we can help ourselves get more production. It's a little bit strategy, and it's certainly personnel.
Being what we are, human beings, the natural tendency is that when everybody brags about you, they write good things, you kind of read about it and you back off a little bit. We couldn't play with them last time.
When Mark was playing last year, we weren't as good personnel-wise as we are now.
Experience is something I'm sure they probably would like to have,
The good thing about it is the cast covers his thumb but your fingers are out, ... He played extremely well with one last week and I asked him, 'Hey, does it bother you?' And he said, 'Not really.' So that's good.
To Mark's benefit, ... I think he's been really consistent with his play since we started back this year. I think he's been confident and sure.
What David is, is a very, very good route runner, ... He's showed that he's got patience. He's got really good hints, which normally means you're a real good route runner, when you can go in there and just have a natural way of selling something. All it is is a little hint, but you see the defender take a big bite off of it. He's got real good instincts that way, and he's been around a long time and is just one of the hardest-working, high-quality guys you want to be around.
We would like to solve everything that we could on our football team in free agency. That way you go into the draft and you're freewheeling.
Now you've positioned yourself to play big games, ... This was huge for us, really a big deal.
Obviously he is not in a position where we think he can kick for us right now.
Right now, for anybody in this organization - I would hope in the entire town - to be focused on anything other than Philly would be ridiculous. We're getting ready to play the most important game that a lot of our players will play. ... If we lose the game, we're not going anywhere. So my mind-set is on one thing, Philadelphia. That's the way I feel about it.
