McCarthy: "Greg Jennings is definitely an up-and-coming frontline player in this league. I thought the performance that he had on Monday night was hopefully a start of a great season for hi."
On the 50/50 Run/Pass ratio: McCarthy: "Not that important. To score points, that's really the bottom line. I think it would be nice to be 50-50. I don't think that's really the way today's NFL is played over the long haul."
McCarthy: "“A scrambling quarterback is important. It is a whole another factor the
defense has to play to. Sometimes it dictates certain coverages that you’re able to see on particular situations on third down."
Lions Marinelli "“Well, I just think our division is really good. I’ve already started watching and there’s a lot of proof in the pudding in this division right now. It’s very physical right now on both – I think all three teams. You look at Chicago, Minnesota and Green Bay, (they) are all very, very physical football teams in terms of running the football and they all play excellent defense and all have good quarterbacks. It’s a very strong division and each one counts big and we’ve got a lot to prove this weekend.”
Kitna on GB defense: "The same thing they always do. They’re the most physical defense in the league in terms of 11 guys across the board. That’s what they’re going to do."
Marinelli on the Lions season opener "“I thought we did some good things offensively,” said Marinelli. “We had the one turnover, which is one too many. The protection was solid. Our commitment to try to run the ball was there and I thought, overall, we threw the ball fairly well. But we’ve got to play better defense, and I thought the special teams was solid.”"
