He's probably come on a little fast, ... That probably was the pleasant surprise of it.

Our last message at halftime was something that we had said early in training camp. We just reminded the players that battles are not won by digging in. If you dig in, you just become a target. Battles are won by attacking. The players did a very good job of that, and they can be proud of themselves.

When he comes back, it's going to be like picking up a free agent at midseason. We'll try to get him oriented to the system.

When he comes back, it's going to be like picking up a free agent at midseason. We'll try to get him oriented to the system. Obviously he'll help provide something we didn't have the day before. Other than that, we might be going till December without him. I don't think about it. I never have a discussion about it until I'm talking to [members of the media]. Other than that, nobody else discusses it. My wife doesn't ask me about it.

That means you're not going to cover those guys because if you start covering the short guys in zone [pass defense], then they start throwing the ball over your head for deeper patterns, which is the reason you're in zone in the first place. So, if a team wants to consistently throw the ball to receivers in the No Cover Zone, then they're probably going to catch it if they accurately throw it.

Certainly the period of rehab would indicate that. Sometimes, these sprains of ankles and feet take longer than breaks do. When you hear that a guy's got a sprain instead of a break, that's not necessarily good news.
