I hired top-notch people, trusted them to do their jobs, and then came to grips with the fact that I wouldn't be coaching as much.

Sometimes I think God wants there to be a circus so we can show there's another way to respond.

It's just really making sure I am doing the best job I can do as a dad. I do think that is my No. 1 job.

But there's no substitute for a full-time dad. Dads who are fully engaged with their kids overwhelmingly tend to produce children who believe in themselves and live full lives.

I learned from Chuck Noll in Pittsburgh that speed and explosiveness on defense is the way to build a team. Both are difficult for your opponent to assimilate in practice and then in games it is even harder to match.

The best solution for falling just short of the goal is to focus on the fundamentals but perform them better.
