We appreciate Patrick's contributions during his time here with the Washington Redskins. Through this entire process we always wanted what was best for Patrick and in working with him we feel this is where he wants to be. We wish all the best to him and his family and his future with the New York Jets.
He's been real consistent with his play since we started back this year, ... He's been confident and sure. ... What I'm looking towards is somebody to really establish themselves as a quarterback, take over and take off with the football team.
I'm looking for someone to establish himself as our quarterback.
Looking back to 5-6, we talked at that time that if we lost another game we'd be out. Trying to win five straight is a tough deal, but our guys seemed to understand what it would take. We went back to the basics.
I am looking for somebody to really establish themselves as the quarterback, to take over and take off with the team,
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.
That's an area we need to be looking at.
It's going to be a big topic of discussion.
It's a real concern, ... It's a problem. We've got to get it corrected because you won't win games up here turning the ball over and I'd still say those are two areas where we have not showed the kind of improvement I'd like -- turning the ball over and penalties. So it's something for a real focus from now until game time. In the regular season, we've got to try to find something to fix it.
I will be honest and say that I've never seen a schedule I like.
He is explosive. He can really run and he covers a lot of ground. You see when he gets matched up covering people, like tight ends and running backs, he does a very good job.
Just doing his part, ... He doesn't have to do more than that, you know. Direct it and get us points, but just do his part. I think one thing about Patrick is he's a real good student. I think he's smart. When you put the game plan in he has a feel for what we're doing there, so he only has to do his part. He doesn't have to make something happen by himself.
It was a big deal. At the end of the game, we're kicking an extra point to win the game.
Hey, hey, ... No filming after 15 minutes. Get those cameras out of here.
