last stuck year
Last year when we were 1-4, we stuck together,
came
When this idea came up, I thought it was a ploy from my mom.
good low noticed offensive
The thing I've noticed is that he's just even-keeled, ... To be a good offensive lineman in this league, you have to be that way. His personality is low key, but he's very confident.
anywhere beat close earth good realize team thinking
You still realize you're 1-4 (and) you're not anywhere close to where you need to be. You also have to look at the big picture. That's the good thing about this team - nobody's overconfident, thinking we're world-beaters. But now, we're also not thinking that we're the scum of the earth and we can't beat anybody.
great mistakes shot stuck stupidity tough win
Stupidity and mistakes aside, I think we had a great shot at winning. We're stuck in a really tough spot. You need a win, you want a win and we just didn't do it.

There's been so much change in what we're doing here there hasn't been much time to think about it.

If he retired, it wouldn't have come as a huge shock. Everybody is pretty excited he's coming back.
change kid top
And after the game, 'Whit' says, 'Why didn't you change that call?' And I thought, 'Man, this kid is on top of it,' ... That showed me something.
care examine playing worry
I think you have to take care of your own job, really worry about yourself and really examine how you're playing individually. You have to be a leader; you have to do things the right way.
circus clean kept ourselves self shooting wounds
It was like a circus because we kept shooting ourselves in the foot. But at least our wounds were self-inflicted and we can clean those things up.
game movement passing running stuff
You could tell the times we were having success, all that movement stuff (in the passing game) was working a lot better. For us to be efficient, we have to have that running game working.
ball continue mix penalties turn
We continue to turn the ball over, we continue to have penalties and we're not making any plays. When you mix those up, you don't have a lot of success.
