That's very important for us. We need to hit some of those guys. We put a lot of emphasis on who will still be there at (Rounds) 5, 6 and 7.
All of our guys thought he was on the ground. That's what everybody told me. I didn't see it, but that's what instant replay is for.
The little guy fights his guts off, we really like him. We got some real tough decisions to make. Certainly he stood up tonight, he really played well. Those are the things we need to see.
If you're on God's team, you can't lose.
The thing about Ray is, he's not going to panic. He's been around forever. He was able to play tackle for us last year and now he's come in to play guard. He's a pretty unusual person. He's been given a great body, but with Ray, it's also about character.
Everybody at this point of the year is missing some starters. They took the Giants to overtime (on Dec. 11, and lost 26-23) and that's all you have to say.
That's an area we need to be looking at.
They did some things early on in there that threw us some curve balls. On defense, they did a real good coaching job on that part. We had to kind of struggle to get things going again, but we did control the ball, which is a big deal.
But if they didn't think it was a joke, or if anybody took it the wrong way other than a joke, when you make a mistake like that, you've got to apologize. So I apologize to anybody that might have taken it the other way.
I have to see how this all shakes out. We will see how everybody heals up, and I will sit and look at it and decide what we are going to do.
It has been a big emphasis for us this week.
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 been proud of our guys, the way they fight. We fight extremely hard.
It's been a big emphasis for us this week. We need to step it up on pass protection because it's a big deal for us.
