Possession Quotations | Page 5

It's a positive thing that we can get a great team like Missouri down by so much that we can come out hard, and we can come out on first and play real hard. It's just the learning curve, and the learning aspect of the game where we need to learn how to keep it and learn how to fight each possession to keep it.

It's going to take us three or four weeks to learn how to play under pressure. Even if you have to wait till the last few minutes if you keep passing it around and don't give it away to easily then things will finally open up. When you start to relax and keep possession and wait for your opportunities goals will come.

It's part of the game. But it's frustrating because I was saying the same thing that Detroit was saying but I said it and I get T-ed up. And then the possession they say it but they don't get T-ed. I guess that's one of the things I have to deal with. I'm still a rookie.

The NFL Today. Mike Shanahan knows, at best, he's got this possession and - maybe - one more.

It's still a man's game out there. You should still have to fight for possession on the ice.

It's difficult for any team to do. You can't be down 20 points in the second half and expect to get back in the game. I thought we did a good job with that.

They were possession calls and boundary calls and things of that nature. I think it was well done. The calls were well-represented and logically thought out before they pulled the trigger and asked for a replay. What occurred was valid, was logistical.

In terms of possession and scoring opportunities created we did extremely well. Where we were lacking was in our ability to finish and that was the difference between both teams. Seba created opportunities and scored. We created numerous opportunities and did not score.

If you would inform, a positive and dogmatic manner in advancing your sentiments may provoke contradiction and prevent a candid attention.

In a game like this, every second counts. Every possession counts. That's the biggest thing you can take away from a game like this. You have to play with a greater intensity to win games like this.
