It was just a general feeling I have. I'm looking for someone to really establish themselves as the quarterback, take over and take off with the team.
It's exciting to me, ... because we're getting back some high quality players that have been missing for a while.
It's a situation where it's tough for Tom and tough for us, ... We think the world of him.
It's a short work week, so Wednesday is a big day for us because we only get two work days, really. We're going hard and we're going late.
It was smart on his part, but it still took guts. I kind of admire him for doing that.
It's not Xs and Os. It's people and character and making great plays, ... It's more of a personal thing. It's the character. It's the fight - because up here most of the guys who get to this level are obviously talented.
It's kind of hard to put your finger on it. We weren't as productive as we wanted to be.
It's kind of hard to put your finger on it. There are a lot of things that you could sit here and make excuses about or something.
It's going to be a big topic of discussion.
I've got to tell you, for a little old guy fighting his guts out, we really like him. We've got some tough decisions there to make, and certainly he stood up.
I've got to do some creative thinking about it, ... We do a lot of stuff to emphasize turnovers and taking the ball away in practice. I probably need to think long and hard about it myself.
No. I think I know what his feeling is and he knows ours. He's a very important guy and we've invested a lot in him. But we can say he's frustrated with the situation over the last couple years with us. We've had a good game plan talking things over and we're moving ahead with it and we'll see where it ends. I wouldn't have a guess if something is going to work out or not.
It was a great experience tonight -- I'm thrilled we came out on the right end of it. Anytime you get into the playoffs, it's a huge deal.
It was a big disappointment for us, ... We talked long and hard about it. It's been a real concern. It's a problem, and we've got to get it corrected.
