It was a shady hit, ... I don't think guys should be playing that way.

I knew when he threw it that he lost the grip a little bit, ... I told him it was a great decision, and not to worry about it. Early on, many times the balls are a little slick. If he had a good grip, it would have been a completion for at least 40 yards.

It's tough for anyone to be on the sidelines, but it would be especially tough now.

I don't think you guys ever heard me say I wasn't pleased with the way he was playing until the last game. Even with all the other stuff that's going on every other week, I've never said anything except I was pleased with the way he's been playing and way he's trying. The last game, he was not aggressive. He shot the ball seven times. He deferred. I expressed that. That's one game.

I don't think you guys ever heard me say I wasn't pleased with the way he's playing until the last game. I've never, ever said anything except I was pleased with the way he's playing, the way he's trying, and I thought he has been making great progress ... We've played twenty-some games. I don't expect this to happen overnight.

My guys always make you assume they're playing worse than they are. I think they do that because I tell them I don't want to know exactly where they are, because I don't want them to know exactly where they are. I don't want them thinking about anything other than the next shot.
