I think (in) my years as a head coach and my years as a coordinator, I don't think I can remember an offense putting as much pressure on a defense as we did,
coaches excellent guys job since

coaching heat staff
In the heat of battle, some things are going to be said by the coaching staff or from players. What it is is the heat of battle. That's just part of the game, and you have to live with those things.
coach defense head offense pressure
In my years as a head coach and as a coordinator, I don't know if I've ever been with an offense that put as much pressure on a defense as we did in that game. We didn't get anything going.
coach expect jerry minute moments player respect spoke standing team walked
The minute he walked into that room, he got a standing ovation. Every player and coach was on his feet. I didn't expect that, but it was just one of those moments that you cherish. Then Jerry spoke to the team for 10 minutes. It just showed the respect that he has earned.

I think about my years as a head coach and my years as a coordinator, I don't think I can remember an offense putting as much pressure on (its own) defense as we did (against Miami). We did not do a very good job on offense.

The way they controlled the tempo of the game ... once you did have the ball, you had to try to take advantage of it. They did a good job stopping us defensively in the first half. They just played better and coached better than we did.
evaluate guys later week
If these guys are hurt, they'll play. If they're injured, they can't play. . . . But we'll evaluate that later in the week and find out where they're at.

I think this will be the true year to evaluate Jake Plummer.
exactly guys job ready team thoughts wear
It's very important for the team to know exactly how I feel. (But) I don't necessarily have to wear my thoughts on my chest, ... I've got a job to do, get these guys ready ... Sometimes I do keep things in-house because I think they should be in-house.

I think that goes unnoticed quite a bit.
