When you try to arm-tackle runners like him or even throw a shoulder pad on them, it doesn't affect those kinds of guys. He's a dynamite player. We're just hoping to keep him healthy every step of the way.

They throw the ball very well and run the ball very well. The third dimension is their quarterback. He's very mobile and that's always difficult. Most of the time, you don't count on the quarterback being a key contributor in the run game.

There were times tonight when this team could have folded its tent. We're not as good as we think we are. I told them at halftime that it was gut-check time, that they needed to show what this team was all about. They finally stepped up and made big plays when they needed to. I was very pleased with their enthusiasm and effort at the end.

I was ready to tackle him, throw him down, do something that would get me disqualified.

He has 4.3 40 speed. Catching him is one thing, but you're not going to one-arm tackle him. His speed is at a different level. When Jeff hits you going that fast, you feel it. It hurts.

The sun lay like a friendly arm across her shoulder.
