He's got more or less a defect there that sometimes gives him problems.
Joe Gibbs

That's very important for us. We need to hit some of those guys. We put a lot of emphasis on who will still be there at (Rounds) 5, 6 and 7.
Joe Gibbs
-
Look for players with character and ability. But remember, character comes first.

All three games came down to the last play.
Joe Gibbs

It was one of those nights where everything went our way.

This is something that is extremely hard, ... You don't like doing this. I don't. Sometimes you don't chart the circumstances or what happens - it just happens. Certainly it wasn't the plan I had going in, but sometimes plans change, and I think you do the best you can in dealing with it.
Joe Gibbs
-
I think any of us, including Coach Parcells, would say that it's players that win games. You have to have great players.
Joe Gibbs

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
-
You're hoping for a new CBA because it frees up a lot of money for all of us.
Joe Gibbs
-
Hopefully, something starts working out so we can get Patrick some place that he would like. I don't have a time frame on it. We don't feel pressure or anything.
Joe Gibbs
-
I think Patrick will tell you, hey, it was bad decisions, ... Hopefully, what you do is learn from some bad experiences.
Joe Gibbs
-
I don't think you rule anything out when you go into a draft, especially if you think there's someone there who you think you can go get. Would you be willing to trade or make a move? I don't think we're afraid to do that--last year we did it. And I wouldn't rule something like that out.
Joe Gibbs
-
It was a tough deal for us for him to get hurt. So what we're going to try to do is make the best decision.
Joe Gibbs
-
I don't think anybody has a handle on it. If they continue to move it, it would be a concern as the season gets closer.

What David is, is a very, very good route runner, ... He's showed that he's got patience. He's got really good hints, which normally means you're a real good route runner, when you can go in there and just have a natural way of selling something. All it is is a little hint, but you see the defender take a big bite off of it. He's got real good instincts that way, and he's been around a long time and is just one of the hardest-working, high-quality guys you want to be around.
Joe Gibbs
-
Looking back to 5-6, we talked at that time that if we lost another game we'd be out. Trying to win five straight is a tough deal, but our guys seemed to understand what it would take. We went back to the basics.
Joe Gibbs
-
Every week we've had four or five opportunities to get balls in our hands and we have not been able to, for whatever reason, to either get the fumble or get the interception, ... I don't know how to explain it. But it's put us in a real bind because you're not going to play on that side of the giveaway and takeaway ratio and win many football games.
Joe Gibbs
-
It's been pretty traumatic, ... I thought we were kind of set there in a lot of ways. It just goes to show in the NFL you're never sure.
Joe Gibbs
-
We're concerned there. We gave up five sacks. Two of them were a little situation where we didn't get the alignment the way we wanted it, so it was our fault. But at the same time, we scrambled out of there to save us a couple, too.
Joe Gibbs
-
When Mark was playing last year, we weren't as good personnel-wise as we are now.
Joe Gibbs
-
It was a great experience tonight -- I'm thrilled we came out on the right end of it. Anytime you get into the playoffs, it's a huge deal.
Joe Gibbs
-
We had a miserable first year (6-10 in 2004), and that's real hard on you. So you go in the second year knowing you've got to make something happen. Being able to get 10 wins, that helps a lot. It gives the whole organization confidence. If we hadn't gotten into the playoffs, it would've been a real downer. Getting in the playoffs was somewhat of a turning point for us.
Joe Gibbs
-
He's got tons of experience, and he's a very good holder. We felt like it was somebody we need to look at.
Joe Gibbs
-
We decided to take our best shot and go at them. We didn't want to lose a Super Bowl by not being tough enough.
