The contract I signed wasn't for three or four years. It was for five years.
What I remember about the old days is that when we had real good football teams, they had a knack for beating us.
What we try to do is be balanced. I think what we will try and do is have a balanced approach to the game. I don't think you can be one-dimensional in any way.
We'll probably stay the same way we are with kicking.
We'll probably look at the film tomorrow and see some real good things, but right now we're our own worst enemy,
We needed to make a few more plays. I think field position was an issue and not being able to get enough plays when we needed to.
We came up short on offense and that's on me.
We fought hard all day and kept slugging. I was proud of our guys because they've got great heart. They found a way to win the ballgame.

You make sure you cover all the things we did poorly. Sometimes in a win like that, you have a tendency to say we played great, but you miss a lot of things that we did poorly. Penalties were definitely a problem. We turned the ball over. ... We've been riding a ragged edge. That's not good football. We've got to fix it. We've got to look at it as a great win, but there's things we need to improve upon.
When are we going to start getting it done? I don't know. I know we're here for the long haul. So, at some point, we've got to start getting it done if we're going to win football games.
We have a lot we need to improve on, ... We've got a long ways to go. Certainly, I don't think anybody here feels like we're satisfied with our passing game or our rushing game right now, so I think you try to do a good job of analyzing it. But certainly our work, and what we're concentrating on, are ways to get more production. I would say across the board we need to step it up. I don't think anyone is satisfied with what we're doing.
Two weeks in a row, he's been pretty impressive.
We'll let Patrick go this weekend. I felt we needed to give Patrick a shot. Hopefully he'll play great for us and we're all going to support him. We're going to give him all the work in practice. He's got a tough assignment this weekend in trying to lead us against Philly.
