GRETZ: If you need more mental toughness, how do you get it?

CRENNEL: “Well, you know how we used to do that back in the day, back in the olden times – as my kids tell me when I talk to them about olden times, they said ‘Dad, those were olden days’ – well in the olden days we’d have contact, padded practice for however long it took. But this is a different day and age so we have to work within the rules that are set forth. So you talk to them, you show them tape, try to get them to understand that every play is a play that must be played in the NFL and that the game is not over until it’s over and there are always chances and opportunities for you to make a play to give your team some momentum and then before you know it, you’re winning the game.”

No excuses because all the teams get the same amount of practice in pads. Altho this weekend there were like 5 teams that scored 40+ points & that may be a record of such? Crennel is going have to find an approach that works, would be nice if he could go "old school" like he wants. I think the rules are dammaging the integrity of the game may as well watch Arena football lol.

Any more if your team can't put up 35 to 45 points on a regular basis your going to lose. We got to find a way to put up points like we did in Vermeil era. Not with Cassel we wont but we got to find a way to make it happen.

Pondering the roll Tony Richardson had at FB & we don't have one now. No excuses for this. Jamaal Charles is every bit or better RB than Priest Holmes & his belly doesn't get Nacho out.
