\n(It has been a) great first week. I think the guys look good, they\u2019re excited. Everybody has a real hop in their step. From an offensive perspective, I think things are going well. We\u2019re right at the pace we should be. Learning a lot, but learning on the fly. And now this is our second time with the installation so I think that guys are getting more and more comfortable as the days move on. I\u2019m thrilled about the young guys. Royce (Pollard) has played well, Chaz Schilens has played well, JK (Jeremy Kerley) has done a great job. The tight ends have looked good. It\u2019s been fun these first couple days<\/p>\n
\nThe same as I told you guys before. He doesn\u2019t smile too often. If you catch one, you better save it. (laughter) They\u2019re few and far between. Sometimes it\u2019s not a smile, it\u2019s a smirk. You never know. But he\u2019s tough on us, he\u2019s fair, he\u2019s an old school guy and he wants things done right and that\u2019s exactly what we need. But he\u2019s been great. He puts a lot of pressure on the coaches, he puts a lot of pressure on his players to do it right. That\u2019s what we need. We need that extra emphasis on the little things.<\/p>\n
\nWell there\u2019s quite a bit of learning going on for all of the positions, especially at quarterback. And the new verbiage, I think is the most important thing. Being able to speak the language, speak it fluidly, fluently, with confidence, convey your confidence, and your presence in the huddle, and be sharp with all your calls. So I think learning the language has been number one. But, it\u2019s been great. Coach Sparano\u2019s installed it, and Coach Cavanaugh, he\u2019s let Coach Cavanaugh talk to us a lot. So it\u2019s been a good learning process so far and the learning\u2019s not over.<\/p>\n
\nI don\u2019t want to get into comparing the two coordinators. I have nothing but great memories from Coach Schottenheimer and our Championship runs. It\u2019s just something different and new and we\u2019re adapting to it and things are going well.<\/p>\n
\nI felt good. I felt like we could finish some plays a little better out on the perimeter. But, I think those guys, especially the wideouts, Coach Sanjay is pushing them hard. And they\u2019re thinking about a lot of things and today wasn\u2019t our best throwing and catching, finishing plays. But I think that\u2019s a good reminder that as much as we\u2019re thinking about, as much as we have going on between our ears, we can\u2019t forget the easy stuff, the throw and the catch. So it\u2019ll be some great film to learn from. There were some great routes and we just didn\u2019t finish. I was just proud of the way JK came back, Stephen came back, all those guys. They didn\u2019t hang their head, they didn\u2019t pout. They came right back and competed really hard and really well. It was a good day for us. We learned a lot.<\/p>\n
\nIt\u2019s been good. I think coach Sparano is very matter of fact, very to the point. There\u2019s no gray area. He lets you know exactly what he expects. He lets you know the emphasis of the day. Whether it\u2019s third down, second down, pressures, first-and-ten, two-minute drill, he lets you know and then once we get on the field, that\u2019s your test. Each week, each Sunday is a test for us. He\u2019ll give you all the answers and once you get to Sunday you got to have the test. That\u2019s the way he sets up each practice and each installation. So I think it\u2019s been great for the guys to understand and grasp.<\/p>\n
\nI think at the rate we\u2019re going, I think we\u2019re all going to do well. I really do. I think he\u2019s really tried to impress upon us the importance of the football and that was something that coming into this season, no matter who your coordinator is, I\u2019ve got to take care of the football better than I did. So that\u2019s an emphasis in every drill and every play. There\u2019s some sort of emphasis on the football and taking care of it. Whether it\u2019s your read, get to the back sooner, put this ball outside where the DB can\u2019t get it, don\u2019t even give him a chance to intercept it. I think that\u2019s good for us.<\/p>\n
\nI know there\u2019s still some things we haven\u2019t installed so, you might want to talk to Coach about that.\u00a0 But, we\u2019re just going through each OTA as a specific install for that day and an emphasis for that day, whether it\u2019s a specific protection or situations that are going to come up in practice.\u00a0 Other than that, ask Coach Sparano.<\/p>\n
\nI think I\u2019m just excited to watch this film from today. That\u2019s the most important thing.\u00a0 Other than that, I thought we had a heck of a day and it could have been better.<\/p>\n
\nWe did a good job (at practice) today.\u00a0 And the wideouts make you look good at times and you put the ball in the right spot occasionally and make them look good. But I thought we did good.\u00a0 Everybody\u2019s demeanor today was competitive.\u00a0 It was good to see that vibe and talking to guys, guys were pushing and competing to the very last second with everything they have and then they pull up at the last second to protect the other guy on the other side of the ball.\u00a0 So that\u2019s good.\u00a0 I think we have great competition going on offense and defense, it\u2019s good for us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
