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.
coaches excellent guys job since
That's what coaches do, teach. If you can't teach, you can't coach. And these guys have done an excellent job since they've been here.
coach defense good head job offense pressure putting remember
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.
advantage coached controlled game good job played stopping tempo

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.
evaluate true year

goes quite unnoticed
I think that goes unnoticed quite a bit.
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.
feels harness later pain
a lot has to do with pain and how he feels with the harness on later in the week.
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,
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,
