G Michael Deiter

(Is the bye week something the team can use right now, just a little bit of a break?) – “It’s something that we can use, but it’s not something that we needed. There are definitely benefits to the bye week. One, the biggest thing is just getting guys healthy and getting guys rested, but another thing is you can take a step back and just kind of see through the first four games, what did we do well, what did we do not-so-well? It’s kind of a week to – you can look ahead to Washington – but you can also do a lot of self-scouting and just see, what do we need to clean up? What do we need to keep getting better with? What do we need to stay good with and just kind of pick those things up and just stay in-tune with the week but also get away from it a little bit and rest.”

(To follow up on that, the past three games in the first half, you guys have been competitive. Is that a positive as you guys go into the bye – face the Redskins – that you’ve done some good things at least in the first half.) – “Yeah, it’s a positive that we’ve had good halves; but it’s not positive that we haven’t had good games which is what you need. It’s cool that we have good film of good halves and we know how it should be and how it needs to go, but that’s all it is, is a half. We need to make sure we can do it for four quarters, and that can’t keep being the theme this year, is ‘we did it for two. That’s cool, right? We did it for two.’ It’s got to be four quarters or else you’re not going to win games.”

(Is there a rhythm now that QB Josh Rosen is set in there? Is it a little bit different?) – “I don’t think it’s different. I think there is a rhythm. The more that a guy’s in there, the more comfortable we all get together. It’s the same with the same five o-linemen. I would say there’s a rhythm coming and there’s a comfort level there, but it’s not any different. It’s not a huge difference, no.”
