It was a big deal. At the end of the game, we're kicking an extra point to win the game.

We would like to solve everything that we could on our football team in free agency. That way you go into the draft and you're freewheeling.
Joe Gibbs

When are we going to start getting it done? I don't know. I know we're here for the long haul. So, at some point, we've got to start getting it done if we're going to win football games.

You're always nervous about (losing Taylor). It would be real struggle for us (without him). I know what Sean says happened and what his group says happened. I think he is concerned about it and I think he felt like there is not much he can do about it now. He's kind of put it in other people's hands. You look a guy that big and that mature-looking and (you forget that) he's really young. He was real cooperative, much more open and friendly last year, and I think he had a heck of a year. I think he genuinely thought about (skipping the 2005 off-season workout program) and won't make some of those mistakes.

The thing about Ray is, he's not going to panic. He's been around forever. He was able to play tackle for us last year and now he's come in to play guard. He's a pretty unusual person. He's been given a great body, but with Ray, it's also about character.

We've had some big battles that I've been a part of in the first go-around.

Whatever your business is, we all have a drama going on in our own lives. We're all unhappy about something. You have sickness, marital problems, a myriad of things going wrong in everybody's life. You have to deal with those things right away. You have to get their full concentration on football. I'd like to be able to communicate even more with my players when things aren't going bad, but it's just like everything else in life. The problems take over, and you wind up chasing the problems. I'd say handling people is the most important thing you do as a coach. Dealing with people, really, is all football is.

I coached in Washington - and in Washington, you lose the ballgame, it's a bad Monday, I just want to tell you that.

Mark just doesn't make mistakes. If you watch him, he's mistake-free.

If I had about $100 million, I could do that ? that's what he left out, ... He makes about $50 million a year, so if I could pop that, he might have a chance. You know you're in the wrong sport when both your drivers have Lear jets and helicopters, and I don't.

It is fun being in, I'll say that. It's a thrill to be in the playoffs. I really enjoy that part of it. From that standpoint, it makes the day much easier.

Ethan's been around so long, it's a great credit to him. He might be as good a long-snapper as we've ever had. I put a lot of stock in snapping, and we pay him a lot of money to snap the ball.
Joe Gibbs
-
I've got to do some creative thinking about it, ... We do a lot of stuff to emphasize turnovers and taking the ball away in practice. I probably need to think long and hard about it myself.
Joe Gibbs

He's young. He's got a heck of an arm. I think he's capable of making any throw you want him to make. One of the best learning tools a quarterback can have is watching somebody else.
Joe Gibbs

With our free agents, we think we have the best place for them.

With the weekend, I figured I'd let the guys go home,
Joe Gibbs
-
It's good for him. It's good for us, because I think it gives us somebody solidly behind Patrick there.
Joe Gibbs
-
I can definitely say that things did bounce our way at times. We were blessed tonight.
Joe Gibbs
-
Sometimes just getting out of the pocket and getting rid of the ball can be the biggest play of the game. As I've said many times, a quarterback's biggest play is when it's not there. Everyone is going to hit it when it's there. When it's not there, what do you do with it?
Joe Gibbs
-
We're all working hard to try to improve it in any way in the league and particularly officiating is a big deal, ... I think we've got very professional people there, and they work hard at it and we need to be a part of helping them and not working against them.

When he played last year, personnel-wise we weren't as good as we are now.
Joe Gibbs

You never know what's going to happen, but our goal is to keep everything together. We have a lot to do trying to get ready for next year and continuing to add to our team and continuing to build something. I know we have the right kind of character and right kind of players to build around.
Joe Gibbs
-
I think all you can ask for is to have a chance at the end of the year. A lot of great cars still have a chance and we've got to earn it every week.
Joe Gibbs
-
I think he feels more pressure the second year to get better, ... We definitely don't want to repeat last year. No one does here.
