At the end, there was some unbelievable plays. It really took my breath away.

Right now, everybody is nervous. I would sure hate to see us go into free agency without (a new CBA) done. The other thing I'm hoping for is the date to be extended.

I felt like he got hit low on it. He tried to come back but felt like he couldn't. We'll have to see how that develops over the next couple of days.

Each team's a little different, how they want to build a team. ... Certainly Pittsburgh is a scheme that works, they won a Super Bowl. If you watch their team, there are a lot of draft choices, they're real conscious about that. It remains to be seen how we'll end up doing, but we've chosen to be more aggressive in free agency.

We have a lot we need to improve on, ... We've got a long ways to go. Certainly, I don't think anybody here feels like we're satisfied with our passing game or our rushing game right now, so I think you try to do a good job of analyzing it. But certainly our work, and what we're concentrating on, are ways to get more production. I would say across the board we need to step it up. I don't think anyone is satisfied with what we're doing.

I love coaching my grandkids, but I love working with my two sons. J.D. is the head coach, and I'm the assistant - you believe that? I missed so much of them growing up. I really messed up there. So I like working with J.D. and Coy. I'm trying not to do the same thing again. With J.D. and Coy, I missed so much.

He's got tons of experience, and he's a very good holder. We felt like it was somebody we need to look at.

The only way I know to get involved in things is to dive into it.

He's frustrated with the situation over the last couple years.

Pass protection didn't look good, and we looked sluggish. Anytime you don't do well it's a concern, but it is the first time out and we had a lot of people in there.

In the first part of the year when he was healthy, I think that's about as good as I've seen anybody run -- very forceful, very aggressive. I think that's a real problem for us because in the first go-round, I don't think he was healthy.

He has fantastic long-ball, and ball reactions, ... Very few people can snatch a ball right out of the air like that quick. And then the other thing, he's got a great burst, and when you get him going downfield and put in the ball reaction, he can be running, I think, and doesn't even put his hands up until the last second because he has such confidence there in where the ball is. Even though he's a shorter receiver, I think he's very much a downfield threat because of that, and then, of course, he's got great speed.

Once you have a plan, you must sell it to the players. It is not enough to put it on the blackboard and say, 'Okay, here it is.' You have to convince the players that the plan is a good one and show them, in specific ways, why it will work. If you do, you send them out to the practice field with more confidence.

We'd had three tough losses in a row and everybody was down. I think our players said to themselves: 'Our backs are up against the wall and we've got no other option other than just to win, and if we lose another game we're probably out.' So they kind of took it as this last stand, and it was that way every week . . .somehow we found a way to win those last five.

Philly has been dominating things in the division. You aren't going to go anywhere until you can match up with them.

I think any of us, including Coach Parcells, would say that it's players that win games. You have to have great players.

I said roughly that I was starting all over again. I don't think the past buys you anything.

They did some things early on in there that threw us some curve balls. On defense, they did a real good coaching job on that part. We had to kind of struggle to get things going again, but we did control the ball, which is a big deal.
Joe Gibbs
-
He's not a starter and hasn't started, ... I know he's disappointed in not making more of an impact, not playing more, but I think it's something we have to work our way through. I think it's one of those things scheme-wise for our defense, it's the best way I would answer that. We've got a lot of guys that are talented guys who can do a lot of things for us. ... Health-wise, I think he's back.
Joe Gibbs

In order to have a great rivalry, both teams have to be winning some games. Lately against Dallas, we haven't been able to do that, ... Until we start doing that, it's kind of hard to have a modern-day rivalry.

That was FedEx Field the way I sure remember it, ... We needed everything we could get today to win this game.'
Joe Gibbs

Unless I missed something, that should have been 15 yards if I have ever seen it. We are supposed to be watching the quarterbacks and protecting them.

We told Danny to get right on it, ... and we told our trainers to get right on it and try to get us some kind of feeling.
