Ken Whisenhunt Throw Quotations

I think in the natural progression of things, he's going to get more balls. The thing you have to remember is Heath's a rookie, you can't just throw him in there and expect we're going to throw the ball to him all the time.

The running game is always going to be important for us. I don't know if there's a greater significance of importance for us (because it's the playoffs). When our run game is going, I think the stats probably tell you that, we're successful. We do still have to throw the ball. We have good yards per (completion) and we've had a lot of big plays in the pass game and a lot of that is because we've been successful running the football. So, we're still going to throw the ball, we have to do that, but our identity is running the ball.

We've had a couple situations in a game where we wanted to get him the ball, ... But, for whatever reason, the coverage hasn't worked out right and we've had to throw the check-down or we got blitzed on the play.

You can't point the finger at that. There were a lot of factors involved with that game. We certainly weren't giving him a lot of time to throw the ball at times.
