I had a basketball net that my dad had put up outside. I went out there and dribbled all day long. I wanted to play basketball. Then I'd go baseball, and then I'd go to football. I remember playing football in a plowed field. I grew up going from one thing to the next wanting to play something.

We wish the past two years could have been smoother.

I think it's a confidence thing, hopefully, ... and I think the guys believe. They know what you're capable off. Certainly, I think our play has stepped up as we've kind of gone here. Hopefully, it carries over. Last year was so hard for us. We couldn't get a big play like we've had in these games. We just couldn't get a big one when we had to have it.
Joe Gibbs

Why this would happen to us? I don't know. We've had three tough losses and a total of five tough losses. I wouldn't want a different group to coach. These are the guys I like. It's up to us, and we're going to see what's going to happen down the road.

I'll tell you what - if you attend a Cowboy-Redskins game, you better not leave 'til that clock hits zero...
Joe Gibbs

I'm just happy for him that he is playing well, ... A lot of times up here you go through tough things. At any one time in the NFL, you're going to have a number of players on a team who are going through tough situations. A lot of times the way they handle it is a measure of someone's character. I think that was Mark's situation last year and Patrick's situation now. The way you go through the tough times leads you to improvement and great performance in the future. It's a test of character when you go through that.

The further you go in life, the more you realize what you're going to leave this earth. It's not going be, "It was a great platform. It was great to win the Super Bowl." But, really and truly what you're going to leave this earth is the influence on others.

We always want to get him in the game plan. We always want to get him the ball. Last week against Dallas, he only had three catches, but they were all big. He was one of the keys to us offensively and we try to work hard to get him the ball.
Joe Gibbs
-
Here is one of the biggest games I've ever been at, and Patrick Ramsey has to go in and try and win it for us. He's handled this situation better than I think anybody could, and it's a tribute to his character. He was ready. He stepped in and made some plays for us.
Joe Gibbs

I like what we've got at quarterback. I like our depth there. You know, we'll see.
Joe Gibbs
-
I was very pleased with both starting groups there, ... It's still preseason, but we needed a good lift.
Joe Gibbs
-
We're excited to have Brandon here. We think he'll add something to our program. He's a gifted receiver.
Joe Gibbs
-
I think we've got a ton to play for. Each one of these games is kind of precious to us. We need to get back on the winning track. Everyone can count the numbers. We've got five wins; we've got five games left.
Joe Gibbs
-
I hate to kind of lay it on Danny, ... but it's Danny's deal, and I'm going to support him any way I can.
Joe Gibbs
-
We came up short on offense and that's on me.
Joe Gibbs
-
A couple of times we make a mistake by being so aggressive, ... We come up and we probably had a chance to get the guy down, but we try to explode on him and miss a tackle.
Joe Gibbs
-
Just doing his part, ... He doesn't have to do more than that, you know. Direct it and get us points, but just do his part. I think one thing about Patrick is he's a real good student. I think he's smart. When you put the game plan in he has a feel for what we're doing there, so he only has to do his part. He doesn't have to make something happen by himself.
Joe Gibbs
-
To Mark's benefit, ... I think he's been really consistent with his play since we started back this year. I think he's been confident and sure.
Joe Gibbs
-
God made certain people to play football. He was one of them.
Joe Gibbs
-
It's kind of hard to put your finger on it. There are a lot of things that you could sit here and make excuses about or something.
Joe Gibbs
-
As a coach, you feel like you're letting everybody down.
Joe Gibbs
-
If we lose the game, we're not going anywhere. So my mind-set is on one thing, Philadelphia. That's the way I feel about it.
Joe Gibbs
-
I'm looking for someone to establish himself as our quarterback.
Joe Gibbs
-
Mark took most of the script and looked good. I'm sure that's the way we'll start.
