I think we take a long hard look at ourselves, and it certainly starts with me. ... It seemed like we were kind of all of us together on it.
I think we all realized what was at stake. We had talked about it all week, the big ballgame for us and for them there was a lot at stake. There was a lot riding on it and we didn't play well. I think we take a long hard look at ourselves, and it certainly starts with me.
I said roughly that I was starting all over again. I don't think the past buys you anything.
Our guys in the fourth quarter are fighting their guts out. I would hope that they'd start the game like that.
I think it would be best for us to start Mark.
I thought Mark looked real good on Friday. But hopefully he'll be able to take more work this week. We'll need to start this game off absolutely sharp, playing against Tampa. They have one of the best defenses in the league.
I was very pleased with both starting groups there, ... It's still preseason, but we needed a good lift.
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.
Unless he really starts feeling good, in all likelihood I wouldn't think he'd go this week.
I always think it's ultimately my responsibility. I always start with myself. I haven't done a good job if we play a game like that. . . . You tell them, 'Here's the good, here's the bad.' It's a common-sense thing. This was disappointing for all of us.
Certainly I'm treating this as starting all over again and seeing if we can develop a winner in Washington. It's a tough league. We'll see what happens.
I was starting all over. It's a tough road up here and last year, for whatever reason, I probably deserved it (the criticism).
Something like that starts with me. . . . It was all of us together.
In order to have a great rivalry, both teams have to be winning some games. Lately against Dallas, we haven't been able to do that, ... Until we start doing that, it's kind of hard to have a modern-day rivalry.
