On if he had an idea of Freddie Kitchens’ potential as an offensive coordinator prior to being named to the position:
“You have heard bits and pieces of how good he was – I think it was on display on the fourth preseason game with the Detroit Lions. You talked to various coaches around the league, and you get a sense of he played the [quarterback] position, he has seen it, he understands from a quarterbacks lens exactly what needs to be orchestrated and he has learned from some pretty good guys, too.”
On the possibility of Williams and Kitchens remaining on staff following this season:
“That is a hypothetical. I think both of them have done a heck of a job – they really have – in their respective roles. I will just get this out of the way right now, Gregg will get interviewed for the head coaching position. I think he deserves that. I think Freddie has done a heck of a job. Let’s see what happens as we continue to play six more games of football with regards to Freddie, but I think Freddie has done a heck of a job.”
On how much the offense has changed since Kitchens became offensive coordinator:
“I think what he has done is he has kind of, OK, what are the strengths of this [team]? What any good coordinator does is where are my playmakers? Where are my strengths on this team? Then he begins to distribute the ball to their hands. Then all of a sudden from the quarterback position, what does he do well? Then he puts him in a position to achieve success.”
