No coordinator can say he's got to stop our run game because we can't pass, ... And no one can say if we stop their pass, there's no way they can run well enough to beat us. We're good enough in both to make teams play us honestly.

They bought a lot of time on that play. They allowed the quarterback to see it really well, stop and set his feet and make a really pretty throw.
It's always tough on those guys. Its just not easy to stop doing something you have done as long as you can remember.
It's a big game for us, I can promise you. They have done a wonderful job of stopping the running game and that's our strength going into this season.
He (Stafford) has come a long way. But there's a lot left to learn, which can only come through experience.
It wasn't quite the way we designed it with Joe stumbling, ... That's not the way it was supposed to go. I'm sure people would have been talking about that play for years if we'd won.
D.J. was about as comfortable as I've seen him in the first quarter of that Arkansas game. Hopefully, he can get right back in the groove.
I really am sincere when I say that it's wide-open. We want to keep a completely open mind but be as fair as we can.
I'm just not really interested in doing a lot of that. Not to say I wouldn't, but if I did, it would be probably to help a charitable organization, or something like that.
Once he settles down into his normal game, I think we're all going to be very pleased.
Going for the fake punt showed a lot of guts and great execution. You've got to give them credit.
It was not an indication of a changing of the guard. I just wanted to see what those guys could do.
He's never really been in this type of game before where he was the starter and where he really had to fight the adverse conditions. He handled it like a champion. He did not flinch.
