Mike Holmgren Quotes about:
-
Battle Quotes
It's a great story. He has come in this year and done a marvelous job. He is one of 18 children. He has had to battle for his place his whole life. He appreciates everything. He works hard for everything. He doesn't expect anything to be given to him, and I can't say enough about the young guy. Do we miss Ken Hamlin? Certainly we do. But Marquand Manuel has been better than good this season.
-
Defense Quotes
That's right. Our offense leans further left than Rolling Stone magazine. We know that defense is the Redskins' strength. And they know our offense is our strength. We'll have to strap our helmets on extra tight, and I guess we should wear our face shields since Sean Taylor will be playing.
-
Football Quotes
At the end of the year, if you have a guy who scores 20 touchdowns, gains 1,500 yards, goes to the Pro Bowl, does all those things, you're probably happy you have him, ... And Shaun, I'm glad we have him. If you can have a guy not get hurt and play for you all season long, that will be a positive for your football team.
-
Adversity Quotes
I'm very, very happy for Matt, and that is no secret. It's a good story to me because he overcame some adversity at the beginning of his career, and he played through some injuries. He's a mentally tough guy. Like all of us, there's a period of becoming a little more humble and then kind of coming out of it and going.
-
Bill Quotes
Honestly, when Bill and I visit, we don't talk about football as much as we do about our families. He tells me about his three daughters, I tell him about my four daughters. We're both very proud of our daughters. We've both been married to our wives since college. What it shows to me is, even though this business can be difficult on families, we've got strong ones.
-
Appealing Quotes
Honestly, there was some discussion on our coaching staff as to who really should continue being the starter. That was a real thing that happened. They were kind of different types; Mark was a little more steady early on than Brett. There was something appealing to a coach about that. Clearly, I had a decision to make.
-
Affected Quotes
He's an outstanding special-teams player. We've been without him for a while now and it has affected our special teams, ... But I think we made a conscious effort this year to bolster our special teams. We have a few more bodies we can juggle around, but will he be missed? Certainly he will.
