    I think Gantt's the only one I saw with a Robinson quote.

    "Wow, we got Meeks?" Robinson said. "Congratulations to him -- and good for us. We just got a good coach."

    While Meeks is coming to oversee the entire defense, Robinson said the move would be of particular benefit to the team's defensive backs. He said the one thing he knows is that Meeks is a stickler for technique, and should make the team's still-young secondary more polished.

    Robinson said he remembers Meeks as a guy who was willing to work with individual players' strengths and adapt to them, rather than forcing them into some dogmatic preconceived notion. Even though Falcons cornerback Ray Buchanan preferred to play off receivers and use his quickness, and Michael Booker was more of a physical corner who liked to jam receivers at the line, Meeks made sure both preferences were taken into account.

    "He's a disciplined guy, and very studious, not a yeller and screamer," Robinson said. "But the biggest thing we liked about him then was that he'd take what you do best and work with it. He'd put you in position to succeed.

    "He wasn't looking to change your style, he was looking to recognize your abilities and work with them."

    wondering if Eugene gets a mention as a DB coach at some point?

    anything to get him out of the booth, now if they would make Mixon the waterboy it'd be a win-win for every one.

    Tools. Both of them.

    Robinson is incredulous, but hannles his biddness. Mixon's eyes are a shade of blue that only appears in magical dreamscapes as the dust that surrounds unicorns.

    I can't listen to Mixon. He starts going off on tangents like this that are completely non-football related -- although he thinks it adds to his descriptiveness.

    Robinson just makes up words that he thinks he's heard before.
