"Let another home game get away, had some opportunities in both those games (STL and KC). Holding LJ to his yardage was a pretty strong run defensive effort. Helped them with big plays in the passing game."
Injuries - Fitz pretty strong hamstring injury. 2-4 or 2-5 weeks.
Milford Brown Questionable with ankle injury
"I thought Matt played well. Trememdous competitor, made key throws, nice throws. Had two bad plays. "
"Bigtime game this week, Monday Night Football. Chicago is the #1 team in the NFL. Look at what they are doing defensively, moving the ball well. A lot of speed in the defensive front."
Q: With the Larry situation, will you bring up someone from the practice squad?
A: We will bring up Holiday. 2 years with us...good training camp
Q: Asked a question about Troy Walters (possibly being the 3rd receiver)
A: He has helped us in playing . Good solid veteran, if we get him the ball more, can make more plays.
Q: Will this take away from using less 3WR packages?
A: We will have to see, looking at CHI now, it depends on who you play, and what they bring in the table.
Q: Obviously not how you wanted to know to Monday night, how do you go forward?
A: You look forward to the next game, we are not here by ourselves. Misery has company. There are other 1 win teams, we surely didn't expect to be. We will not go into the game any less confident, If we play our game, we can compete against any team in the NFL.
Q: Defense has played well, do you think that one big play here or there is what is causing the problem?
A: It is hard to say, those plays, 2 years of it. Something difficult to explain. After that simple screenplay, we stopped them on the 4 yard line. Our defense was very stout at times.
Q: How did you like how Lutui played when he was out there?
A: Well, it was the first time to get some action, we talked about playing him anyway. More practice preparation.
Q: Asked a question about Matt's inception, was Law sitting on it?
A: If Law doesnt think that you wont go deep, he will sit on it. We did not go deep enough, Our first TD he was good, dropped some deep balls, more than one. Did not catch enough to win.
Q: We didnt see a lot of motion, was that to give Matt enough time and to simplify the offense?
A: They do a lot of things also, (blitzing) we wanted to try and settle them down enough.
Q: James was grumbling about not running the ball enough.
A: I am grumbling about not running the ball enough.
Q: Do you agree that he needs the ball more?
A: Yes
Q: Will he get the ball more?
A: Hope so. I think the game is dictated by how you run the ball.
Q: Do you think those two plays to start the 4th Q (not getting the 1st) affected the playcalling?
A: I just think that we did not rise up and knock them off the ball
Q: Here you are 1-4 for 3 years in a row, do you still think you are making progress?
A: Making progress in everything but the record. Some of the young, dynamic players here. Adrian Wilson was grown here, as good as you can expect from 3rd rounder. You should NEVER have a punt blocked all season.
Q: ..bout JJ running the ball out of the endzone, would you like to see him down it.
A: He wanted to break it, the penalty on top of it is what was bad.
Q: Milford is sitting out of the game, afraid of ligament damage
A: Will do a MRI, hopes that it is 2 weeks, will let you know WED.
Q: Did Dansby have a good game
A: I think so, except for that endzone run, did not get a good hit.
Q: Back in the starting lineup?
A: We'll see
Q: Does Berry look like the same guy in 04?
A: To me he does. They dont have any sacks, blitzing more.
Q: How did Gabe do?
A: He did well, Clancy, thats another injury, his ankle, may miss next week. Wanted Gabe for that reason. He did a pretty good job of it.
