“The runner was clearly short by a couple of feet of the 48-yard-line. He had to reach the 48. Obviously, the first down was given very tightly. Therefore, when I saw the spot on the field, I knew the first down had not been reached.”
Bill Leavy
“It?s always good to make those yards when you need them, like in short yardage and goal line situations or like that third quarter (against the Jets) when you're going into the wind. You want to try to control the clock a little bit. Those are important yards, too. I think we can do a better job in running the ball than we did. I hope we can.”
Bill Belichick
“We lined up in the shape of a 'J' on the 50-yard-line to pray for him. He wasn't with us, but he was there and the kids played hard for him.”
Alex Figert
“We've had one of these dinners on the 50-yard-line at Texas Stadium, and invited some players to stop by. We did it (the 50-yard-line stadium dinner) because we thought it was fun.”
Bill Brewer
“We're not being productive with runners on base. That's the bottom line. When we get runners on base, no one is stepping up and making the big hit for us. That's what you've got to do in close games.”
Tom Woodruff
“We've marched down the field and are inside the 10-yard line. The speaker is increasingly confident we can hammer the language on an agreement soon.”
Steve Maviglio
“I think anything from the 36-yard line and in, I'm not going to blink. I think he's shown enough consistency from 54 that it doesn't bother me anymore.”
