A very tricky situation. Some of the salaries are at the point of being out of whack, really out of proportion.

Tyler Emmert is going to come in here and compete very well.

When you look at why this team is 9-0, I don't think it's necessarily because the offense is that much better than it was last year, but I do believe the defense and special teams are better.

We played hard, we played with intensity, we flew around. Were we as sharp mentally? No. Our guys were in a fog. We won, despite ourselves. That's the mark of good team. We're not a great team yet.

They had the momentum at that time. Was it a good call or a bad call? I'm not going to say it was a great call, and I'm not going to criticize it.

We have to raise our level of intensity. I think they'll understand. We have to respond and rebound.
