couple game last played poorly
I don't know that we've played as poorly in a game as we did the game the other day, in the last couple of years.
couple course feeling football game good household last league maybe national people plays quite recognize running sure throughout
He's never been a household name. But I feel quite sure that throughout the course of the last couple of years .Ê.Ê. people in the National Football League recognize what he's done. You get a pretty good feeling for it during the game when you see running plays that maybe get 2 or 3 yards.
albeit game gets himself opportunity player prepare sure unilateral
You're damned if you do, damned if you don't. You need to make sure that each player gets an opportunity to prepare himself for the game tempo, albeit (in) preseason. So you end up making arbitrary, unilateral decisions.
brady brings cases certainly confidence defense doubt field football game gang guy hope kicking offense overlook position talks team tom
Everyone talks about the confidence Tom Brady has in what he does and I don't doubt that. But let's not overlook the confidence that he brings to every other guy on that football team on offense or defense or the kicking game - 'let's get the ball back; let's get field position because Tom can do it.' He is certainly not a one-man gang there, but to me, the one thing a quarterback can bring is hope and certainly he not only brings you hope, but in most cases if you give him an opportunity, he will get it done.
ball ends factor field game history losing major opponent quite short single throughout turn winning
It was a game that ends up like most if you turn the ball over. You give the ball to the opponent on a short field and that is the one single thing that throughout the history of this game has always been the major factor in winning or losing games. We're quite disappointed.

The most remarkable thing of this whole football game, and I've been doing this a long time, I cannot remember the last time that I coached a game in the NFL when there was only one penalty. That was absolutely remarkable and unfortunately we had the one. But we'll get that worked out.

I would assume the number of games and carries he might get would not have any negative effect on him because he's such a big, strong, physical guy.
add chances destined football game likelihood lose percent strong winning
Add the minus-three giveaway-takeaway, I think there's a very, very strong likelihood that you're going to lose those football games. If you're minus-three giveaway-takeaway, the chances of winning a game are down around 20 percent or something like that. You can't live that way. If you live that way, you're destined for failure.
stay
Like a lot of their linebackers, you can get on them, but they won't stay blocked.
exactly good opportunity team
It's always good to have an opportunity to play a real good team and see exactly how good you are.

I think what happens is a sense of panic sets in. It's a natural reaction.

I think we all understand that ours is a very difficult, competitive enterprise, and in my opinion, it's important that everybody is aimed in the same direction.

I was an English major. And I have run out of superlatives.
