We have not handled success well in past seasons. It's a 10-round fight, and what happened in the third round today has no bearing on what happens next week.
More Quotes from Roger Hughes:
As a coach, you always strive for perfection. Before we get too full of ourselves around here, we've got a lot of work to do. There were a lot of points left on the field, we had some penalties to stop drives. The good thing is Derek Javarone has been fairly consistent. He's been 100 percent scoring points in the red zone. That's been the difference. As I told the team, be happy but not satisfied. We have a long way to go. The strength of our schedule is ahead of us. We certainly can't sit back and start feeling too good about ourselves.Roger Hughes

How is our defensive line going to play ... We have some guys on defense who have some experience, but what will our defense look like without Zak Keasey We lost 127 tackles, quarterback pressures and big plays when we lost him. How they will play without him is one of the big question marks we face.

When you're ahead in the game, or you're not a long ways behind, you can stay with your game plan. I'm anxious to see how we respond if the tables are turned and we're not ahead. That's one of the things this team has not faced yet, is some adversity like that. As we get into the meat of our schedule, things aren't always going to go our way like they did last week.

You have more business leaders willing to enter into that conversation, mostly for self-serving reasons, quite frankly. This is a huge burden on their bottom line. It has become pretty clear that this system is not sustainable, and business leaders are finally coming to this conclusion.

Execution-wise we had too many penalties offensively. We had too many mental errors offensively, turned the ball over too many times, and you can't do that against a good team.
