The last couple of days I’ve seen it in a lot of guys’ eyes to the point where you really have a lot of compassion.

Donnie has done a good enough job, especially in the last game,

He does everything you ask him to do. He’s never been a problem; he pays attention in meetings. It seems like his head is in the right place.

This was just a conversation about would I be interested or not,

If we can get all of the guys to play as well as they are capable of playing, we could have a good football team,

It was a close call. You don’t want the game to come down to that situation if you’re playing like you’re supposed to for the 60 minutes in the game. Secondly, we need to be...

I would hope that self-indulgence is not something that we’re concerned about at this point. Personal ego has to be given up a little bit out of respect for one another.

We don’t have to have a reason to bring anybody in. Sometimes, you have to gather information (in case) we need to.

It was great that Ronnie Brown got untracked a little bit. We told him we were going to work him today. As the game wore on, it looked like he got a little better. Maybe...

My only feeling is that the situation and the circumstance that created this whole thing is unfortunate for a lot of people. I think that it is unfortunate for the Saints that they have to...

We thought we could bat a lot of balls on him, and have some players who are athletes, … When you’re pressuring, getting as close to the quarterback as you are, that’s got to be...

If we can get it worked out, maybe he will have the opportunity to play. If he can’t, we will have his services later.

We’re modern-day gladiators, that mental toughness, if you will, is really important to have in a good team. It’s got to permeate your team and there has to be a core group of guys that...

The more success you have, the more belief you have in what you have to do to be successful. The key piece to the puzzle is that you understand what it takes for you to...

I talked to Ricky and Ricky still seems to be very, very interested in coming back.

We’re not making any changes at that position right now. This should not be an issue. We don’t want it to be an issue. I know y’all are going to try to make it an...

Sam has worked hard and played very well for us. He has gotten better and better all year long and has especially played well in the second half of the season. He has been a...

Ronnie did some very good things, from a blocking standpoint, and made a couple of nice runs,

What do you want me to do, cut the guys? … I really can’t do anything to the players, to be honest with you.

I have never operated on the assumption that anybody should do anything because they are afraid,

The roster that we have today may change tomorrow. It is what it is for right now.

This is an opportunity for each and every one of those guys to show what they can do.

We are not in the playoffs, but it was not all in vain. This group was a team for the last six weeks of the season, for sure.

One of the most difficult parts of my job is having to release players, and the past week has emphasized this fact. This is especially true when those players made significant contributions to the success...

That’s not something I’m interested in doing right now. I’m very happy to be the coach here, … We’re looking forward to the challenges of making LSU a dominant program in the future.

The number-one thing is we want somebody who is going to manage the game and give us the best opportunity to be successful. We were going to make the decision based on this position based...

With such a demanding schedule, it’s also important that we improve as the season progresses and develop the kind of team chemistry that will allow us to play winning football and finish strongly as we...

(That) can only be brought about by a lot of conversation and getting to know someone. I don’t know this particular player well enough to make that determination right now, but it’s something we might...

You’d like to put yourself in a position, if you have a flexibility to do it, to take a particular player that you’d like to get. Obviously if you have multiple draft picks, that gives...

Ricky Williams did a fantastic job for us this year. If I was going to say who were the five guys you enjoyed coaching the most, college or pro, about the guy being a good...

There are lots of players who have had this injury. There are lots of players who come back and play from this injury, and they actually come back to full mobility and full speed.

I think the evaluation is he played behind two really good players that were both drafted, and to find out if he has the right stuff to be a consistent performer.

I think that’s something we’ve always looked at as a two-starter position.

This game is really about our players and not about me going back to Baton Rouge,

We have a goal for how many explosive plays that we want to make. We don’t want to make those explosive plays at the expense of making poor decisions that are going to turn into...

I’m not disappointed in what [Williams] did. I didn’t think he had a chance. It wasn’t like he made the wrong cuts or did the wrong things.

If that is what it takes and gives us the best opportunity to win, the best opportunity to be successful and play winning football on offense, it’s not something we wouldn’t consider doing,

We have an idea of how we’re going to use (Williams), but we don’t have an idea of how much we’re going to use him.

That’s all bull, It’s an excuse, and I’m not giving the players an excuse. You either have discipline or you don’t. If we’re going to give them a reason to fail all the time …...

There’s an old saying, … If a rattlesnake bites itself, it still dies.

I don’t see that changing significantly. I’m sure there’s going to be a lot of new ideas that will complement that and help us improve in a lot of areas we need to improve in.

I was very proud though of the way our players fought back in the game. To get the ball down [near the goal line], odds are we should be able to get it in there....

I think he got enough work in the preseason to be ready for the first game. We did the best we could under the circumstances. We’ll continue to try to develop him in the beginning...

We are not disappointed in Ronnie Brown. As I said before, expectations always create frustration and a lot of anxiety, which doesn’t necessarily help a guy’s performance.

Ed Perry has done a good job for this organization for a long, long time. I have a lot of respect for him as a player and as a person. But from a business standpoint,...

The further we get away from this, hopefully, the less effect it will have,

I thought it was a very disappointing first half for us, to make some of the mistakes we made and get in a hole. Obviously we need to improve our ability to play in the...

I’m just happy that we could make this state proud, … We got tired at the end of the game, but we played from the heart.

When we do decide, we won’t be telling you, so you can keep asking. I’ll call up (Panthers coach) John Fox. When I call up John Fox and tell him what we are going to...

I am not going to comment on and worry about who or when the starter is (going to be named) because the bottom line is, like every Dolphins fan, everybody that I know and everybody...
