He's always answered the bell. When you come out of the locker room, he's always the guy that's standing out there before the team and making sure everybody touches everybody. And this is the first time he touched a guy when he wasn't in pads.
It could be more ugly football for us.
It didn't look good. We are keeping our eyes open with all these guys, but he did have a good workout.
He's a good player and he'll play in this league with another team.
He's a little rusty, but he's still got to play, ... His rust is still pretty good.
He's got no chance of playing in this game.
He's got to get his mind mentally ready to play Kansas City. We know one thing: When he is healthy, we win games.
I think that's what's going to help him. That's always settling for a quarterback, rather than the preseason when you're playing with some guys that probably were good high school, college players, and probably won't make your team. Teams are blitzing you. That's a scary moment. He had to do that for three years, survived it.

It is harder for me because we know all the work he has put into it,
I anticipate doing the same thing. You do (want to play them more), but you also understand the big picture. For the most part, what we have to do is we have to have a good practice session this week. I think it's very, very important to get some continuity going with our offense. It really just boils down to what we're going to become on offense and play to our strengths. That's the whole key between now and when we open up at Kansas City.
Buffalo came out and got hot early, ... They ran the ball very, very well in the first half. I thought in the second half we got some momentum and got back into the game, but they did a good job of rallying when we got back in the game.
He hadn't played and hadn't practiced a lot.
He did well for a guy in his first practice. He's got good instincts and he understands our concepts.
