My feeling is that, because there are more injuries, because of free agency, because it is a dilution (of talent), it doesn't matter who's the best team during the season. All that matters is who's healthy and hot late (in the season). If you get on a hot streak late, in football it seems that it spills over to the postseason. You have to be hot at the right time and healthy at the right time.

Waiting for 25 can be frustrating at times, but you are there for the right reason. You just hope you are even further down every year.Ernie Accorsi
I once went to a basketball game and told Charles Barkley he'd make a great tight end. And he said, 'No thank you.' Most of them don't want to do it because, in football, you get smacked in the mouth.

You have to proceed as if you are not going to have him. That's the only way you can proceed. We signed two veteran corners, obviously, to protect ourselves. But I think when you get into the draft you can never make a decision that is based on another player's medical uncertainty. You are really taking too much of a risk there.

Yes, ... That's the QB I saw at Mississippi. All the qualities were present poise, quick recognition and release, crisp throws, strength and accuracy with the long ball. But mostly command.

If you really want a player, then go after him. We've done that here. But there is so much trading that goes on, particularly in the first round, that sometimes you have to trade up out of self-defense because someone else is trading up.

But he is such an under-control, mature kid. He's just unflappable. What he went through last year and with the team just decimated around him, he's just a very poised young man. If it was a kid I really thought would be afraid of any situation, I might say something, but I don't think I need to. I won't say anything to (him).
