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.

bothered game instant pivotal point review stop time understand work wrinkles
If we don't stop the game and look at it at that point in time on a pivotal play I don't understand it. And I know we have some wrinkles to work out with instant replay, but I'm just bothered that we didn't stop and review it.
