You need a balanced offense. It becomes tough to throw the ball when it's windy, rainy, cold and breezy.

In this weather it's hard to tell. It got cold and it was rainy out there. The ball wasn't carrying as well as it was earlier, but every time he steps to the plate now, it has a chance. That's the kind of feeling we have.

This offense, ... is a better offense than when they had (Steelers quarterback) Ben Roethlisberger. It's more balanced.

I was getting in position to throw to second when the ball stayed down. I just didn't get the hop I was anticipating. After it hit the top of my glove, I was just trying to make sure I could get one out. I don't know if we could've turned the double play, but I would like to have found out.

It's a high risk, flashy offense where you can make a big play, but when you throw the ball a lot bad stuff can happen. Kevin has the hardest job out there with all the reads, but he has a very strong arm and he's really going to flourish. We can spread the ball around to a lot of different guys and we have some backs that can pound the ball inside. We'll see, but it should be fun.

When I was warming up and it was windy and cold, it was more like a job, not going out to have fun playing tennis.
