As long as he's not getting in trouble, let him go out and have fun.

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.
Joe Gibbs
-
I'll probably address this for the last time.

You make sure you cover all the things we did poorly. Sometimes in a win like that, you have a tendency to say we played great, but you miss a lot of things that we did poorly. Penalties were definitely a problem. We turned the ball over. ... We've been riding a ragged edge. That's not good football. We've got to fix it. We've got to look at it as a great win, but there's things we need to improve upon.

I will say this, we don't listen to him all the time or we'd be out here in our underwear.
Joe Gibbs
-
I don't think it's anything real bad. But he had a little twinge there.
Joe Gibbs
-
I'd say we have, ... because of the team and the confidence factors and things.
Joe Gibbs

The past doesn't buy you much.

I don't know how to rate it, I just know that being 5-3 right now is pretty good.
Joe Gibbs

Last year we saw rookies play extremely well at quarterback, and they beat us; Pittsburgh beat us soundly.
Joe Gibbs

That's my responsibility. Obviously we wanted to be much more productive than what we were in the playoffs. We always each year try and look real hard at everything, and that'll be one of the things we look real hard at is, offensively, how can we do a better job.
Joe Gibbs
-
My heart is still with the offense. Al will probably be saying 'Shut up!
Joe Gibbs
-
Any time you don't play special teams, it hurts you, ... You've got to be a legit starter if you're going to do that.
Joe Gibbs
-
We think that right now we got a core group of players that are extremely hard working. Now, how good we're going to be, how many games we're going to win? That remains to be seen.
Joe Gibbs
-
So far this year at least, we have been turning the ball over and we have not been getting turnovers. That formula will kill you.
Joe Gibbs
-
That's never been done before in the NFL, so you'd have to say that this team is going to play a lot of close games, ... It's been phenomenal all the way across the board. They go after it super hard. Whether it's on offense, defense or special teams, they make key plays when they have to late in the game.
Joe Gibbs
-
We think he has great flexibility for us.
Joe Gibbs
-
It does influence every part of your life and it influences every decision you make. (speaking about faith)
Joe Gibbs

He's had a big learning curve, and we want to play him more than what we did the other night, ... has got him scheduled to play more. He's a very good athlete, and he also can carry the football, and at some point here I'd like to get him a few carries and kind of see what he looks like there, too. But I think it's just a work in progress, and we're working really hard with him.
Joe Gibbs
-
I told Patrick that the decisions we've made, it should be pretty obvious, are based on the fact that we think a whole lot of him, ... We think he's got a tremendous future with us.
Joe Gibbs
-
You always have a burning desire to do well, ... It wouldn't matter if it was the first year, second year, third year.

I'm a phys ed major: that's ballroom dancing and handball.
Joe Gibbs

He thinks the world of our team. He thinks we've got heart and fight.
Joe Gibbs

I think we all realized what was at stake. We had talked about it all week, the big ballgame for us and for them there was a lot at stake. There was a lot riding on it and we didn't play well. I think we take a long hard look at ourselves, and it certainly starts with me.
