Trying to win five straight is a tough deal up here. Our backs have been against the wall for five weeks.
Joe Gibbs
-
It's been a big emphasis for us this week. We need to step it up on pass protection because it's a big deal for us.
Joe Gibbs
-
We've all kind of been in a similar situation. In my case it was a racquetball tournament.
Joe Gibbs

Hey, hey, ... No filming after 15 minutes. Get those cameras out of here.
Joe Gibbs
-
We wish the last two years had been smoother. We wish there had been no injuries. We wish he could have played more and played back to the standard where he wanted to be. I know he was totally frustrated by it.
Joe Gibbs
-
It was a big disappointment for us, ... We talked long and hard about it. It's been a real concern. It's a problem, and we've got to get it corrected.
Joe Gibbs
-
We certainly accomplished a lot this year. We were 6-10 last year, and the facts speak for themselves this year. We got a lot of good things done.
Joe Gibbs
-
Unless he really starts feeling good, in all likelihood I wouldn't think he'd go this week.
Joe Gibbs
-
in terms of personnel, or changing the technique, there are a couple of things you can do there. We shouldn't have any blocked, and we've already had two. So it concerns us.
Joe Gibbs
-
He's smart. He's been around a bunch. He kind of understands the game plan. He can walk through the game plan.
Joe Gibbs
-
I had great football players. To be quite truthful, my great football players, the ones who wanted the ball at the end of the games, they weren't focused on money. They want to do something great. They want to go to Pro Bowls. They want to win Super Bowls. Those are the people that succeed in sports - or in business.
Joe Gibbs
-
We'll continue to talk about that all week.
Joe Gibbs
-
My commitment to the players was to try to keep this whole group together and hopefully improve and step up again next year.
Joe Gibbs
-
It's probably one of our biggest concerns, with his groin. It'll probably be later in the week before we get a report on that.
Joe Gibbs
-
In times of biggest change, if you can keep your head and be the smartest, you may get a jump over everybody else. It's a challenge, but it's an opportunity, too.
Joe Gibbs
-
Ray really looks like a stroll in the park. He looks like he could do it the rest of his life.
Joe Gibbs
-
No. I think I know what his feeling is and he knows ours. He's a very important guy and we've invested a lot in him. But we can say he's frustrated with the situation over the last couple years with us. We've had a good game plan talking things over and we're moving ahead with it and we'll see where it ends. I wouldn't have a guess if something is going to work out or not.
Joe Gibbs
-
We have no doubt that Dallas will be there. We take it as a given. We don't even think there's any question about it.
Joe Gibbs
-
If that took place, we understand the penalties. We understand somebody being taken out of the game. Sean is so valuable to us. I had a long talk with him afterward, and he understands that. He's all football. He wants to play. He's one of our leaders. He's had an outstanding year. He's very valuable to us. We can't afford to lose somebody like that.
Joe Gibbs
-
It keeps agitating and worrying us there, ... They're trying to get it to calm down.
Joe Gibbs
-
It's exciting to me, ... because we're getting back some high quality players that have been missing for a while.
Joe Gibbs
-
I'm not a karma guy. I don't believe in any kind of luck, either. ... We've been fortunate. I would say that.
Joe Gibbs
-
It was just a general feeling I have. I'm looking for someone to really establish themselves as the quarterback, take over and take off with the team.
Joe Gibbs
-
That is my responsibility. Obviously, I think we want to be more productive than what we were in the playoffs. That will be one of the things we look hard at. Offensively, how can we do a better job?
