00:00Are you hoping that you can avoid a track meet game tonight then because obviously the
00:19Bengals have been in quite a few of those this year?
00:24Well, no question and boy that's what they do and they've been right there close.
00:32They've got a handful of games that could have been wins in their direction.
00:37We know we have our hands full but you do every week in the NFL.
00:40They pay their guys too.
00:42They've got great coaching staffs and we've just got to go out there and execute, make
00:48plays.
00:49We've talked about the defense here today but the offense, we need the offense to go
00:55out and make plays as well.
00:57Rico's been running the ball well as a blade and we're running the ball as an offense well
01:02and certainly get CD Rolla again and get our share of the points and hopefully ultimately
01:11come out of here and get a win out of this.
01:14What's the tight end spot look for you with Ferg back in the lineup considering how Schoommaker
01:18was playing?
01:19Well, I think we'll use them all.
01:22That's part of it.
01:24We want to continue to be effective running the ball and when you get those bigger guys
01:29in there it gives you the opportunity to do both and I agree heads off to Schoommaker.
01:35He really played well in Ferguson's absence but at the same time we all know Ferguson's
01:41one of the top tight ends in this league and I think he'll bring a lot to the dance here
01:47tonight to help Cooper with some of his things that he's trying to get accomplished and hopefully
01:55open up some things more with CD and go out there, execute and make plays which is what
02:03we're going to have to do.
02:04Obviously when you play against a team like Cincinnati we're going to have to score some
02:08points.
02:10We saw a line that said Mike McCarthy said that Adogo would have started game one had
02:16it not been for his injury.
02:17Did you feel that was your best option at the position then?
02:21Well, I just think at that point you've got a veteran guy who's ready to go, a rookie
02:28at left tackle.
02:29You kind of like to bring him along if you can but I thought Guyton stepped up and did
02:35a lot of good things.
02:36It's just as we move forward I think he'll do nothing but get better as a left tackle
02:43in this league.
02:44Certainly though when you've got a guy like Chuma when he's healthy and he has his share
02:50of battling through injuries as well.
02:55That's part of it and part of the league but at the same time it's good to have a guy like
03:02Chuma when you're bringing some young guys along.
