“I’m seeing some poor coaching in the National Football League. For what these guys are getting paid, it’s embarrassing. A lot of them are not doing their jobs. And that’s not to say there are not a lot who are. You look at Bill Belichick and Jeff Fisher, and they are every bit worth the $6 or $7 million they are commanding. ... If you just gave Fisher some more personnel to work with, he would win a lot more.”
“Tony Romo is a franchise quarterback. He could take that team all the way with how he has been playing. He’s an elite quarterback. He has had that offense humming. He’s taking care of the football. He’s moving the sticks. He’s finding the open receiver. He is an elite quarterback. He’s right up there with the best of them. You tell me who’s playing better in the NFC.”
“Donovan McNabb’s problem is that he cannot move around like he once did. He needs to be able to move around so that his receivers can get open and he can find open throwing lanes. He has lost a step.”
“Green Bay’s defense is for real. The biggest mistake Jacksonville made was cutting Byron Leftwich after he struggled against the Packers in the preseason. They thought Green Bay was a joke. They are not.”
“Do you think Tarvaris Jackson will be kept out with a groin injury because he is really hurt or do you think they just want to get another quarterback on the field? They have an excuse to save some face now. How much of this guy do they have to see before they figure out he’s not ready? Do they have evaluators over there who are watching the same tape I am? Golly. Everyone tries to make this a lot more difficult than it is. It’s not that hard to figure out.”
“How arrogant are the Dallas Cowboys to sign Tank Johnson? If Lovie Smith could not handle him, you think Jerry Jones and Wade Phillips can? Wow. What the Cowboys have not figured out yet is that he’s not that good, anyway. Put on the Super Bowl. He ran around like a chicken with his head cut off. Mark my words — his time there will be short-lived.”
“Jason Campbell is still young. He’s not there yet, but he showed a lot of poise in a hostile environment on the road (vs. Philadelphia). That was a huge test for him, and he passed it.”
“The Packers don’t have a starting running back. Brett Favre will eventually return to his old ways. He’ll start giving the ball away.”
“The 49ers won their first two, but they are winning ugly. They are not producing on offense. They are not using Vernon Davis downfield at all. You take the guy with the sixth pick, get him the ball, for crying out loud. Throw in some bubble screens, get him going across the field. Get the ball into the hands of your playmakers. Instead, it’s run (Frank) Gore right, run Gore left, run Gore up the middle. Teams are stacking nine guys in the box, and they’re still trying to jam it down their throat.”
“It’s difficult to compare eras. What people forget is that Joe Gibbs had one of the best rosters in football the first time around. He had the best players in the NFL. It’s taken him some time to get back to that point, but he’s starting to get it done. He is learning how to work the new system. I think he gets it now.”
