The pace of the game flowing down has everything to do with you being comfortable. My first two years here, we were playing musical receivers, rotating guys in and out of the lineup, guys getting hurt. It was a tough couple years as far as trying to build any sort of comfortable relationship with any of the players out there.
More Quotes from Joey Harrington:
I certainly appreciate all that the Ford family and Matt Millen did for me. I learned so much in Detroit and I will always value those relationships and that experience. At the same time, I am eager to get to work with my new team, whether that happens in a day, a week or a month.Joey Harrington
Unsure of himself as a rookie starter, Harrington seems far more relaxed this year and is helped by the similarities in his former and current coaches' West Coast sets. Though he was sacked only eight times in 12 starts last year, Harrington struggled with his progressions, often throwing the ball away before even looking for his third option. He had a paltry .501 completion percentage. At this time last year my head was swimming, ... There were times I had no idea what the play I was calling needed. It's hard to be accurate when you don't know where you're throwing. I feel better now, especially with the guys I have around me.

When you get beat like this it doesn't matter what's happened previously or what's going to happen afterward. You feel awful right now. Tomorrow you go in and see what you can correct. Then you move on and respond - hopefully like we did against Buffalo in the preseason.

I'm not expecting to walk in here and have them hand me a job, ... I think all three of us bring something different to the table. In one respect, yes, I want to be on the field. But if I don't start right away, I now I need to learn. I need to grow.

The offense has to pick it up. I don't know when we're going to take that step, ... I thought we took a step two weeks ago. Sooner or later, it's going to fall into place.

It's tough because there are times when I just want to rip someone's throat out, but I've taken the approach of trying to steadily build something. The thing is -- and I've been criticized for it -- I've tended to take the positive out of every situation. I've insisted on it. They've called me 'Joey Blue Skies' and said that I'm not seeing what's actually going on here. Well, I am seeing what's really going on here We're a young team trying to build something, and when it starts to work -- not if, but when -- we'll be a great football team.
