Q&A with TODD HALEY - 12/31
Dec 31, 2009, 2:04:17 PMQ: Do you expect Flowers to play?
TODD HALEY: “Again, today he was a full [practice].”
Q: Matt Cassel said the last two practices have been great. This is the last week of the season, so are you happy to see that the preparation is still good?
HALEY: “I think that’s how we’ve prepared every week and I touched on it yesterday. That’s got to be our mentality and it’s a winning team’s mentality all the time. Guys that are banged up try to play. You practice hard. You do your tape study. You continue to do all the things you do in Week 1. I think that’s got to be the mindset and that’s the mindset I would expect. I don’t think that matters whether you’re again going to be 16-0 or trying to get your fourth win against a division opponent on the road.”
Q: If you were going into the playoffs would you rest your starters as some teams did this past weekend?
HALEY: “It’s been my experience, and really the way you have to think, you have to play to win. That’s how you do it. If you deviate you end up…at least that’s my opinion.”
