call
I'll make my call and get some explanation,
excited field game hard seen threw worked
The culmination is to get them on the field. Like I know how hard Will Fidler has worked all winter. I was just excited to see him because I had never really been on the field to see him when he threw the football. I've seen him on film. I've seen game tapes, and all that stuff. To see him out here, that part is really exciting.
obviously people playing touches
His touches will go up if we are able to get more snaps, ... He obviously is a playmaker. People we're playing know that as well.
explained league numerous occasions office review reviewed reviewing slow
It has been explained to me on numerous occasions from the league office that they review every play, ... They were real slow in reviewing that one, obviously, or reviewed it poorly.
decisions football life wants
He's got to make some decisions about his life about how much he wants to put into football and getting an education.
allowed cover passing pick rush
Our secondary, which has not allowed a passing touchdown, has to be able to cover well and we have to get a rush on their quarterback. If not, they will pick us apart.
football guys happens quite tight
That's what happens when you get Jacob Tamme at tight end. All of a sudden, those other guys don't get quite as many snaps.
football good prove talk
I still feel very good about our team. I still think we're going to be a much-improved football team, ... We can talk about it all we want. Now we have to go out and prove it.
football team year
That was a different football team than this year mentally,
broke guy hopeful ironic matter next passes record soon string throw together
He understands all quarterbacks will throw to the other guy once in a while. It's kind of ironic that as soon as he broke the (Kentucky) record for most passes without an interception (153) that the next one was intercepted. But it was just a matter of time. I'm just hopeful he'll put together another 150 string without an interception.
extremely guys hitting physical pleased running
I was extremely pleased with the way our guys are running around, how physical we are and how we're hitting people.
chance great john nice opportunity rise step
It would be nice to see John step up, ... This is a great opportunity for him. If he's ever going to do it, this is a chance for him to rise to the occasion.
flying football good great heart hits people physical played running
He played a great football game. He tackled, he covered. He played his heart out. I would like more of them (opposing players) not to get to him, particularly in the running game, but it is good when he's flying around and getting to the ball. Not only did he tackle, but he put hits on people and was a very physical corner. We need that.
backs ball beating chasing easy faster game guys hand history love running stronger time
Running backs take a beating because the guys chasing them are bigger, stronger and faster than at any time in the history of the game. I'd love to have a guy you can hand the ball 25 times a game and he'd always get 100 yards, but that's not an easy thing these days.
