He's a good player and he'll play in this league with another team.

He gives more than he gets so he's really like Curtis Martin. At the end of the day, those guys are who make the league great because of what they do on the field, how they conduct themselves as professionals and what the do off the field. His legacy as a player goes far beyond his football career.

If a performance of a player is not up to the standard that's acceptable, then there will be some changes, ... It could be during the game.

I think players in the league recognize that and he'll have a great opportunity this year.
bring brought face hit masks people physical players presence
We've brought two players who bring a physical presence to our defense. They'll put their face masks on people and will hit 'em.
beat clearly good guy pick player protection
Well, I don't know if he struggles. I think at times if we don't clearly pick up the protection or if we can't beat the guy that is guarding us. ... Sometimes they got a good player guarding us and they make the play.
left players playing plus side tackle
We like what he's done. He makes some errors, but all young players make some errors. The thing about him is that he is playing the left side and that's big when you can find a left tackle that you feel can play the position. That's a plus for us.
asked games glad guy handled happen players position respect win won
We're very glad we have him. He's a guy that's won a lot of games in this league. Players respect him because of what he's done, how he's come in here and handled the position we've asked him to take. Obviously, if something should happen (to Pennington) we feel like he can go in the game and play and win for us.

We have to have a different mind-set - that was established today in our meetings, ... I think our players took hold of it and did a good job of practicing. It was a pretty fast practice, guys moving around where they were supposed to go.
ability athletic felt good great guy knew liked player three watched
When we first watched him in college, we knew he was an athletic guy who could make plays. We liked his ability to play in space. We always felt that that he was getting better and better, so we liked him from the beginning. (He's) become a pretty great player for us, a good sub guy that really can play all three (linebacker) positions.

There are certain players that bring more to your team than just being a football player. If you're talking about Tony Richardson, he brings a whole lot to this team besides being a good football player. We're going to do everything we can to bring him back.
best looking players
We did it looking at what was best for the players and best for the team.
best kidding line player shotgun throw
I used to be a player and I know that feeling. I could see it on their faces. You do what's best for the team. I'm not going to put the quarterback in harm's way and let him go back there and line up in shotgun and look all pretty and try to throw passes. You'd get him killed. Are you kidding me? For what? It's ridiculous.
hurt mistakes obviously players trying
Obviously those players aren't trying to do it on purpose, ... but those mistakes hurt you.
