The Truck Stick is a bit gimmicky, but it's useful in short yardage and goal line situations.

It?s always good to make those yards when you need them, like in short yardage and goal line situations or like that third quarter (against the Jets) when you're going into the wind. You want to try to control the clock a little bit. Those are important yards, too. I think we can do a better job in running the ball than we did. I hope we can.

One of the things you don't plan for is to go into short yardage situations in the spring game, because you just go let everyone have fun.

Once again, we're on the short end of the stick.

We've got to defend the run, defend the Wing-T and put them into long-yardage situations so they have to throw.
