comments last met regarding situation
We met regarding his comments last year. The whole situation is done and over with,
chance four good member played receiving run slot special split steady three training versatile
He's played pretty good in the two games. He's had a steady training camp, ... He's become a more versatile member of our receiving corps. He's not one-dimensional. He can play flanker, split end or in the slot in our three wides or four wides. I think he has a chance to be on our special teams. He's made a run at it.
assure comment difficult dimensions extension field further guys playing speculate start understand uneasy
I already said we're going to do all we can. You have to understand what the playing field is. With no extension in place, what are the dimensions of the field that we are playing on? So I can't really speculate or comment further than we will, hopefully, find out what the playing field is and I will assure everyone that we will do everything we can to keep those two guys here. Once again, it is a difficult time. A lot of us are uneasy. Some of us are uneasy to start with.
advance capable impact looking players playoffs plays
He is capable of making impact plays for us. I think he's a clutch, big-time player. We can go to the playoffs and advance with him. Those are the kind of players we're looking for. He's one of those.
concerned determine few hope jeff next
He has so much swelling, we can't really determine how long it will be. We should know more in the next few days. We're concerned about Jeff Gooch. We hope it doesn't take too long.
game gets goes great guy people run stronger wear
He gets stronger as the game goes on. Some people say he can't run between the tackles and we're going to wear him out. But if you don't try to wear this guy out, you're never going to find out how great a back he is.
fit great looks nicely scheme size
He looks good. He's got great energy. We think his size and his aggressiveness, his motor, are going to fit nicely in our scheme of things here.
again half looked pad practice work
He looked pretty good. We had some pad work in the first half of practice and we're going to pad him up again (today) and Wednesday. ... I think he should play in this game.
bigger continue help hopefully next stronger team
He'll continue to be with the team and help our young quarterbacks, and hopefully come back bigger and stronger and better than ever next year.
ahead best block extend game kick last signature today
He made a big play to block the kick to extend last week's game in overtime. What he did today was come up with the signature play of the game. His best times are ahead of him.

He made a big play, obviously, last week blocking the kick to extend overtime. Then finishing the play today basically was the signature play of the game.
came plays third
He came in there and really made some big plays for us in the third quarter,
certain football healthy looked pads phases practice seven six team
What do you want me to do? Criminy, we've got to do something, ... We've got to get practice done. We need to get certain phases of our football team looked at, but when you only have six or seven healthy linemen, you can't go in pads for 21/2 hours.
guys hopefully proud start
We're proud of these young guys and hopefully this is just the start for them,
