bunch defensive extremely played pressure talented
Jake played extremely well. He made a bunch of big plays. They had a lot of pressure on him and they had a very talented defensive front.
defensive faced team
We haven't faced a better defensive team this year.
bit college colleges defensive draft looking number offense players quite team watch
I watch a lot of college film, not only looking at what different colleges do from an offense and defensive standpoint, but also evaluating players, ... so we do that quite a bit during the off-season. Especially a team like LSU, who has a number of players (in draft consideration) year-in and year-out.
against ball defense defensive football good lose momentum move past pick stop sudden teams yards
Yeah, it is frustrating. But there is some good with it. When you move the ball 80 yards on your first drive, and all of a sudden you're on the 1-yard line, and all of a sudden you lose your momentum like we did. When you go against a good defense and you're in long-yardage situations, you're going to be in for a long day, so you can't stop yourself. We're going to play a lot of good defensive football teams this year, so we'd better pick it up. If we don't, then we're going to be inconsistent like we have been the past two weeks.
evaluate true year
I think this will be the true year to evaluate Jake Plummer.
calls larry
Larry calls all of the defenses. Every once in a while, I'll give a suggestion. When I do, it's usually wrong.
drafted guy high himself love rookie speaks sure type volumes
We'd sure take him. He's the type of guy you love because he handles himself with so much class. When you have a guy who does that as a rookie being drafted as high as he was, it speaks volumes for the future.
bay bother goes next san seem steve tampa
It didn't seem to bother Steve Young when he went from Tampa Bay to San Francisco. The next place Steve goes will be Canton.
couple days informed jerry talked three top wide
I talked to Jerry a couple of days ago and I informed (him) that he would not be one of our top three wide receivers,
city teams trying
I think it's a better system. There are more opportunities, and because teams have to come to your city to do the interviews, it can be done without conflicting with what you're trying to get done.
coach defense head offense pressure putting remember
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,
comfort field missing question
You just think of it being automatic, you don't even think about them missing it. I do think there is a comfort level. Saying, 'Hey, we do need the field goal?' You don't question if he's going to make it.
growing guys hopefully pays strides
Some guys (have) got more growing to go. That's part of the season. But I thought we made some strides and hopefully it pays dividends.
