Look, when you are starting to put something together, you want the pudding to come out good. You're trying to put in the right ingredients.

Losers assemble in small groups & complain, winners assemble as a team & find ways to win.

I think there are a lot of good people, a lot of good football guys in the NFL.

I grew up under demanding people, that demanded things from you, expected you to toe the mark.

Some guys are just very, very interested in their sport and their predecessors. I know I was a guy like that when I was a young coach. I wanted to know about George Halas, I wanted to know about Jim Lee Howell, guys you don't even know. I wanted to know what they were like. So I read whatever I could get my hands on.

I'm not trying to keep anybody happy.

I spent a lot of time with my teams, especially in the East Coast teams, talking about dealing with the elements a lot of time, and a lot of instruction about field position and those kind of things. I like that variable.
