Chan Gailey Played Quotations

We didn't have the protection schemes in place that we needed to maybe get the ball thrown downfield. Especially third downs, we ended up getting sacked. We obviously just played poorly overall. We ended up in third and long seemingly every time we turned around.

Probably the strongest area of our football team is our defensive line, with guys who have played quite a few plays. We have great expectations for Darryl Richard.

It's hard to put a figure on how valuable he is, ... He's played tackle and guard in the same game. That's amazing.

Jamal had played some nickel, which is a little bit like safety. He's certainly got a lot of ability, but he's got a long way to go to learn that spot and be comfortable and help our defense there. There's lots of thinking that goes on there.

I would say that anytime you have a guy with as much experience and as much talent as Reggie has, who's played in big ballgames and won big ballgames on the road ? not to take anything away from Taylor ? but you would miss a guy with that experience,

He's a young player who had not played center; we moved him to center when he got here. He's got excellent toughness and good strength. He is lost right now, learning how to play the position. Centers have to make all the calls and are in charge of a lot, so he's got to learn that and it's going to take some time. He's made very good progress, but he's got a long way to go.
