I wouldn't put him on a boat. That I wouldn't do.
bit excellent fast knew picks pocket
He's better than I thought he was, ... And he managed the pocket a little bit better than I thought. I knew he was a fast learner, but he picks up things really well. We've just got to be patient, and we're going to have two excellent quarterbacks.
You always think of the ones that get away.
jobs player thinking
I think every coach has to adapt to what they have, because they're what you get. You can't just go out to the player tree and pick all the great ones. That doesn't happen. You get a Barry Sanders every now and then. You get a Billy Sims every once in a while. And when you have it, you adapt to their strengths. Whoever comes in here and whoever has this job needs to adapt and will do that.
good nice players staff took
We've got a long way to go. But I thought they took a good first step. It was a nice introduction for everybody, for the players to the staff, and for the staff to the players.
jobs should-have years
What I should have done, if I was going to be a GM, was gone on the road, gotten into the personnel a lot better. To do that job, you've gotta do it all year. I just did it at draft time.
attention clear coach guy pay type
I need to be more cognizant of the type of guy we're getting. If anything, the coach has made that abundantly clear to me. ... I need to pay attention to that and get the right type of person because there are times when I haven't done that.
