Denny Green Team Quotations

I think Marcus Vick has had to carry a burden that the rest of the guys don't have to carry, which is a famous, very talented older brother. We haven't looked at him as closely, but I think that he'll probably grow up. I'm sure some team will be realistic in what role Marcus or anyone else can have when it comes to helping them.

We've played 12 matches in only eight days and our team is improving with every match. Our doubles teams are starting to play the way they should be being consistent from the baseline and aggressive at the net.

I think he's going to kick that way every year. I mean, he has a strong leg. He has a very good mental approach to the game. Hopefully we'll be a lot better team and he'll have a lot fewer opportunities, but I think he'll be successful when he kicks.

Any time one of the 32 teams loses a starting quarterback, it probably makes a difference.

The first unit, we wanted to go halfway through the third quarter. I think that John has only been closing the games out. We wanted him to play a little bit more in the third quarter. This week, Josh will be in his customary second team when the second unit goes to play.

I never have any hard and fast rules like that. What I believe in is that the team deserves for me to make the decision on who the best guy is to help us win.

But that's what's great about this league. Teams like us have hope every year. Football is different from baseball. We share television revenues. That helps equal things out. Plus, it's never been proven that the more money you spend will help you win a Super Bowl. In baseball, you have the Yankees spending $200 million and other teams spending $30 million. That won't happen in football, no matter what happens with the CBA. That's why we're different. That's why teams like us have a chance.

It seems like just yesterday when we were all together in Minnesota. I remember James, who was about 6 or 7 at the time, just loved being around the facility and the team and most of all being around his dad.

I think they're going to be a playoff team year-in and year-out. He'll fit in well in Miami.

This is the reward. This is the dessert. This is what you get when you've got an outstanding stadium. Now you can function like all the other 31 teams in the National Football League. In fact, you can function better than they can.

You go down to Florida State and he is kind of the No. 1 guy on a team with a lot of big-time players. They fashioned him to be on the level of a Derrick Brooks when he came out of there and (he) was a big-time leader and helped them win a lot of games.
