Fitz’s energy rejuvenated the Dolphins
‘“(I’m) giving guys plenty of chances in the passing game getting us into the right play and doing all of those things that a quarterback needs to do; but first and foremost, the energy and the confidence that these guys need to play with, I’m trying to do as best I can in that regard.

McDermott: I want our team playing fast
‘”All of us together, coaches and players, let’s do what we’ve got to do, do it how we normally do it and be decisive. It’s not getting to playing hesitant.

‘“I think there is something to that,” Morse said this week. “We don’t need to change everything just because we lost one game, but I think we need to look at what gets us stuck in certain situations. When you think too much on the football field you don’t play as fast. And that doesn’t mean you don’t think, that means be confident in yourself. Be confident in the group of guys with you. Maybe sometimes less is more when it comes to communication part. Go out and just play football.”’
