account brings football good guy guys happens looked physical
He's an outstanding football player. I mean, he's a physical guy that brings it. He's a competitive guy. In that game, he looked to me like he misjudged the player's speed. He was in good position, and just didn't take account of his speed. That, unfortunately, happens to guys in this league. But he's one of the better safeties in the league.
good
He's an experienced guy, he's good with the young guys.
added close grown lost players talented team turn win
I'm disappointed that we've lost our first two games, but we've grown up a lot as a team. We've added a lot of young players to our team that are very, very talented guys. We've been close in each game. We need to turn the corner, get over the hump, win a close game.
based feeling imagine interested offensive people readings rule
I imagine based on readings I'm getting and the feeling I'm getting, there's people interested in me being an offensive coordinator again, so I'll look into that. I wouldn't rule anything out, but I do know I want to coach.

I'm absolutely concerned about the amount of penalties. You can't play and have success with that many penalties.
earlier handled year
I am not sure, if earlier in the year on the road, we would of handled them. We handled them (Sunday).

I believe Jerry will be able to play. To what extent, I don't know. I don't know that he's completely turned it loose yet.
approach bad carries dallas determined game terms
I feel bad for LaMont, we haven't been able to get him going. The one game he did in the Dallas game, he had 26 carries for 126 yards. We just have to be a little more determined in terms of how we approach it.
good job last surprise
I don't think this was a surprise to anyone. It was speculated over the last two months. I wanted to be here, and you take a job with the idea of doing a good job, getting the job done and being successful.
bit feels ran
He ran a little bit today. He feels a little bit better. We'll see where he is tomorrow.
bit either feels game preparing ran ready
He ran a little bit today, ... He feels a little bit better. We'll see where he is tomorrow. If Randy's not ready to play, he's not ready to play. We're preparing to play the game either way right now.
learned looking quick sure
The No. 1 thing I've learned in this league, and what everyone's looking for, is the quick fix. I'm not sure there's such a thing.
answer happen hard talk
That's so hard for me to talk about, anything that's going to happen after the season. You know, that's hard for me to answer that.
coaching pressure similar terms
That's similar to coaching Troy. There's pressure every day in terms of coaching him, so I think I'll be all right.
