We beat two little guys, lost to two big guys.
We're actually trying to separate them a little bit. They need to be their own person a little bit more,
We knew he was an excellent quarterback. We had him hemmed in in the first half, but we weren't good enough to do it the whole game.
We just feel like we need probably our most experienced guys at tackle right now.
We just try to improve and improve and improve. We don't worry about how we look so much. We stayed healthy and that's always, I think, the number-one priority.
We just wanted to look around in the stadium and realize how fortunate we are to be able to coach and play in front of 80,000 people that love their team like we have here. Who knows if it does any good or not? We'll find out Saturday at 1 o'clock.
toward the end there, my give-a-damn was busted. This is not the way I ever coached...I'm not proud of what happened, but there it is.
We're to the point, ... where if it's a close game late, something good is going to happen for our side.
We're going to try to practice everybody the same amount, but mostly the younger guys. Guys that haven't played much, which is about the whole team.
We're not in the upper echelon by any means. We've got to scrape and claw for any victories we can get. I think our guys know we've got to play well. We don't have to play perfectly, but we need to play well to beat these guys.
We're probably going to give him a game ball come Wednesday when the team gets together. Bernard made tackles all over the place and was hustling around, playing his assignments probably as well as anybody on the team.
You look at the individual as much as you do who they are playing against,
Timmy has learned from everyone he's been around and put it together. He knows how to develop a team chemistry. He knows that everyone has to have their role. From where he came from, he appreciates everybody. I'm sure the people who clean up and answer phones love Timmy. He makes everyone feel important.
We'll get him ready. He's been in the league quite a while. He should be able to pick up on what we're doing.
