4 Notable Quotes: Brian Daboll
‘The Dolphins did a good job on the one where we had the free runner through the middle, and I thought Josh did a nice job of throwing the football away to keep us in an opportunity to score three points there. Third and 11 we threw a little slip screen to Isaiah [McKenzie], that they did a nice job of defending. That’s the game right there, you have to try to skip those third downs, keep it to third and manageable. Third down and long, regardless of where you are on the field, is tough, so it’s something we’ll just keep working on.’

I thought he was smart with the football.”’
Eric Wood | 5 observations on the 5-1 Buffalo Bills
‘I think there’s always a constant balance of doing what you’re good at and constantly evolving as well so you’re not showing defenses the same thing each week. They have done a spectacular job of doing just that. Each week presents you different mismatches and weaknesses in different spots, you obviously want to attack those. It would be easy to say that in the last game the Dolphins secondary was the weakness and probably the same for the Eagles this week, so there will be a lot of emphasis on the passing game this week.’

‘“You can lose yourself if you’re angry and are so mad about what just happened that you get out of sorts,” Frazier said. “We tell our guys so much to just play the next play that’s all that really matters.
