You don't let it be a distraction. That is not what you do. There are going to be things that happen and you don't focus on those things. You focus on getting the football team ready to play and you handle the other things up front the way we do it.
We feel bad from a team standpoint for Todd. He worked very hard this offseason. He was having a heck of a camp, and its a shame this happened.
We understand it's never as good as you think and never as bad as you think in this league. Mike Nolan's putting together a football team right now, working his tail off to get that thing right. He's got a bright future ahead of him.
I think it's important that there is change. Change can be good. Sometimes you have to bite the bullet a little bit, because sometimes it's a player that people like on your team and in your city. I think Bill's track record probably speaks for itself.
I thought the effort of our football team was very good,
I think that everybody on the football team has a lot of confidence in him. He's playing well, but it's not something new that he is doing now that he didn't do before. He is getting more of an opportunity now.
I think they'll look at our record at Lansdowne Road, ... There are not many teams that come and get a good result - we have turned it into a fortress and they know that they're going to be in for a tough game. Everybody is going to be working their socks off. On top of that we've got a lot of quality players and that will frighten them as well.
Reggie is well deserving of his Hall of Fame induction. In my mind, he will go down as the greatest defensive end in NFL history. He was a great teammate and a fun player to coach. As good as a player as he was on the field, he was an even better person off the field. He left a lasting legacy, both in the NFL and in the community.
Releasing players that have worked their tails off for the team is one of the toughest days for me,
One of the things that's pretty obvious is you can't get down by four touchdowns against a good football team like we did Sunday. We have to start faster. We realize we haven't done a good job of that this year.
If we didn't understand the importance of special teams before, we certainly do after today. You have to take that part of the game seriously, too. You have to take care of the football and you have to block and tackle.
I have great respect for Dick Vermeil. He has watched over me and took care of me since I took the job here. They are coming off a tough loss to Denver and he will certainly have that team prepared.
