concerned later obviously status until valuable weekend
We're obviously concerned because he's a valuable part of our offense, ... We will not know on his status for this weekend until later in the week.
later practice run status until weekend
We will not know his status for this weekend until later in the week. But as of right now, he will not run (Monday), obviously, and probably won't practice on Wednesday, but that still is uncertain.
confident disagree felt nervous practices putting six three weeks
Diggs had three practices in six weeks and I just didn't feel confident to put him on the field. I know he may disagree with that, but I just felt nervous putting him out there not having been through a preseason with him.
asked hopefully knowledge last left next played week
Hopefully by next week I'll be ready. He played in the last (preseason) game. I asked him how he was before he left (and) he said he was fine. That's all the knowledge I had on him.
came concerned diego felt game gave overly row san weeks
I'm very concerned about special-teams coverage. Two weeks in a row we gave up a kickoff return. I'm very concerned, particularly when we came out of the San Diego game (Aug. 11) and felt very confident. Overly confident, I guess, as you may look at it right now.
advantage changes days full kept philosophy research week whether winning work
I can't think of a bye week we went into healthy, ... I think organizationally, we take full advantage of the bye. The philosophy whether we're going into the bye winning or losing, I've kept the same philosophy - how many days we're going to work with the players, the coaches' schedule, our research analysis, the changes we need to make.
certainly chance dinner fact gave good house invite might proud ways win
I might invite him over to my house for dinner tonight, ... He certainly still has some ways to go, but I was proud of the fact he made a good play there and gave us a chance to win the game.
great group
I think it's a great group of guys,
anyway case certainly fact limit misleading plays prepared run
Well, certainly it's limiting. How limiting? They've all run the run plays that we are calling. We've had to limit it going into this thing anyway in case this in fact did happen, so we prepared that way. But it does limit you some. I'd be misleading you to say it didn't.
effort encouraged fairly football fought imagination league losing moral national saw stretch supposed thrill time victories winners year
I was fairly encouraged for the first time this year - there's no thrill in losing and there's no moral victories by any stretch of the imagination in the National Football League - but I saw some things out of the team. I thought they battled, I thought they competed, they fought and did the things that winners are supposed to do from an effort standpoint.
fact grips risk
I still haven't come to grips with the fact that he would be unavailable - because he's always been there, ... But we're not going to put him out there and put him at risk if that's going to be the case.
backs converted count excellent fisher past player role screens services third tony
Without the services of Davenport, we have to be able to count on our other two backs as well. Tony Fisher has been a role player for us in the past and has been an excellent player for us, particularly on third down, and has converted many of those on draws, screens and catches he has made.
against aggressive capable game heavy hits laying looks plays safety season
You know, he started the season like gangbusters, had the big interception in the first game against Tampa, he's laying some pretty heavy hits on people, he's really being an aggressive safety and making the plays that he's capable of making and yeah, he looks good,
penalty playing season situation stupid worked
We have a long way to go. The penalty situation is inexcusable, and that comes back to me, as I told the players, but I put it on them right now because we have to get that worked out. That will not work this season if we have that many penalties. Playing stupid like that does not bode well.
