On Buffalo not being able to practice\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\nI\u2019m pretty sure they\u2019re not upset about it (laughter). I can promise you that. Being snowed in is difficult, it is hard, but at the same time they are probably going to be fresh. They\u2019re not going to go out and really put a strain on their bodies so that could be a concern. For the most part, I really don\u2019t know what to think about it.<\/p>\n
On if practice is overrated\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\nNo, practice is not overrated. It is not overrated at all. I think the most important thing you can do is practice. You have to get a feel for timing, new concepts, new things you may be doing and I think it is very critical. The last thing you want to do is miss a week of practice and come and try to play. I\u2019m not saying that it can\u2019t be done, but I just know how important it is.<\/p>\n

On how many days of practice an NFL team needs to prepare for a Sunday game\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\nI\u2019m not sure. Ideally, you\u2019d like to have some time to work your game plan on the grass, on the practice field. Having a Thursday game, stuff like that, we\u2019ve gone into games where you just have walkthrough. We\u2019ve played on Thanksgiving before, we\u2019ve played Thursday games and during the week all we had was just concentration and walkthrough. And you still feel ready to play, it\u2019s just that you haven\u2019t had the timing that you normally would get on the grass if you will.<\/p>\n
On whether he can think of situation where only one team has been able to practice before a game\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\nWell, usually you\u2019re really prepared to do things, like there\u2019s a contingency plan. I was in Baltimore and we had a hurricane come through and (we) never intended to fly out to San Diego for a week, but we did. So, you make adjustments and that\u2019s the way it is. If there\u2019s an advantage, I hope there is. I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s the case or not. And not making light of it, I think with the way everybody has their playbooks now on iPads and all that, you\u2019re able to get the information to your players and I think that\u2019s obviously a good thing. So, you don\u2019t really miss a whole lot that way with the new way things are set up. But, do I think it\u2019s better to have practice time? Clearly.<\/p>\n

On if it is a big disadvantage for Buffalo missing two days of practice\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\nI don\u2019t know. I think right now I am worried about us and our business and our approach and trying to beat them on Sunday. However they handle their business is how they handle it. Right now we have to be ready to go, coming off a win. We have had some time off and we have to get going.<\/p>\n
