I don't know that there's anybody that good, at any position - and I'll speak offensively - including our quarterback.

I take credit or blame for a couple of the losses. I thought I called some poor games offensively, and I didn't give our players a chance to execute some plays. ... So, I've got a lot of improvement to make. It's not just the players.

We've had a lot less mental mistakes than we had last year at this time, and I think they're starting to understand. A lot of the terminology is identical, with just a few changes, but there's better communication overall.

Rashad has a chance to be a good back -- maybe a special back. He's a big, strong kid who can run people over.

It got pretty hot, pretty smoky, pretty fast in there. There's evidence that they might have still been in there when it was burning pretty hot ... and we are going to catch them.

We'll go with whoever is hot.

We just have to convince (Collins) that there's activity at the position other than just throwing your big body at somebody to block him. But he's adapted to it pretty well. He's still working at it, but he's on track.

I learned a lot the year we won the Super Bowl in Baltimore (with the Ravens). I made mistakes, but I'm also not usually someone who dwells on the great things that happen, either. I can be critical of myself and the people around me, and I want to improve all the time.

LaRod had a good summer. We're going to be careful that we don't overload him.
