‘”At least we’ve got something to go in and get the last 30 snaps and get a feel for it and get communication, said head coach Chan Gailey. “That’s about what it’s for, communication only.”‘

‘”Last season was tough. I’ve always been on the football field” Morrison told WGR during an appearance on Monday’s morning show. ” I’ve always been productive. I found myself behind Nick Barnett but he was playing great football. With the switch to the 4-3, this is a place I wanted to come back to. With the environment, I love the coaching staff, the teammates, the area, it was for me. This year for me is a year to prove a lot of people wrong who said I don’t know if he can play.”‘

‘Head coach Chan Gailey says right now its a dead heat. “They both have not done anything to distance themselves from the other. Neither one of them have done anything,” he said. “Both of them some things are good one day and some things about bad one day. We just have to keep letting them play.”‘

‘”Yeah, it is tough,” said Mario Williams. “We do not have a bubble here, so what can you do. We just come in and take the physical out of it. But you have to be mentally prepared and on top of your game. It is actually a good way to come in, actually see things a little bit slower.”‘

‘They are both in great shape. They both look good. They both are doing the things that we ask them to do. We will just continue to work the process. We are still in installation right now. We are not nearly where we need to be or want to be for game planning situations or seeing what looks good with what. We are doing a little bit of that, but not much. We are still installing. We will be doing that through the first game, really.’

‘At this point I feel like it is easy to have better mechanics. But it is when you get into the games that it is really going to be the test for me. And not just Week One through Week Five, it is going to be the whole season. Staying consistent. Staying on top of footwork and different things. That is where it is really going to help me is throughout the season once blitzes are coming and once you are speeding up your footwork a little bit and stuff you do not expect is happening. That is when the footwork is going to be something I have to rely on and that is what I am really looking forward to is him (QB Coach David Lee) staying on me in those times.’
