Mike Tomlin

He's got an awesome relationship with football.

He's at the point in his career where he's really reflective and excited about giving back to the game and the young people in the game.

And so it's fun to do that with him and help young guys like Will Howard advance in his career.

And so it's been an enjoyable process, but certainly it's work.

We respect it in that way.

And certainly we respect the work that's in front of us this week in terms of leading this group.

We didn't do anything against Miles that we don't normally do against Miles.

The sack records are relevant.

We've got to minimize him if we want to engineer victory.

We did the same thing last time we played him.

I didn't think he had any sacks in that game either.

And so we didn't take a different approach because of the gravity of the record.

It's just standard business when you're playing these guys and him.

As always, I'll start with a quick roundup on our last performance from last night.

As I said after the game, you know, I thought we had a clear...

path to engineering victory.

Certainly they had established a certain personality during their four-game win streak.

A major component of that was their run game, as I mentioned.

They had averaged about 192 a game over the previous five games.

And so certainly we had to minimize that.
