They don't count double, but you've got to win the division games at home,

This is a big game. Division games to me are the most important. Those division games, you've got to get one back just to get to even. We beat Carolina (in the opener). And it will be good if we can stay here and win this. Then we still have Tampa twice and Atlanta and Carolina again. So the games that we need to win are ahead of us.

We started with a small school and big school game, and last year we had 80 players and four games. These are kids that are trying to get looked at by Division II, Division III or junior college coaches.

We started off 1-3 in the division last year but won five of our last six games, with our only loss (being 38-36 to Grove City). If we win that game, we tie for the division title. ... We're confident that we can turn things around again this year and if Grove City (falters) a little bit, you never know what could happen.

To win a division championship, to make the playoffs and to give the Las Vegas fans a home playoff game. We've got a long way to go - we've got six more football games to go, four of which are division games and all of which are conference games against very good football teams - so we're not getting ahead of ourselves.

This is a much bigger game than a non-division game. You have to control your division. You have to win it. The division records are the first tiebreakers. Division home games become critical.

They run the ball well when [running back Fred] Taylor's going well. And they've added elements to their passing game every year. So it'll be a big test. They've beaten us two out of the last four. And they've beaten us up here. So we're going to have to be ready. It's a big division game early in the year. I think our guys know that. You have to win your division.

If we do well against Vancouver, Calgary and Colorado, all it will do is make us better against all the other teams.

It's a case of starting over. When you get a second chance, you just try to take advantage of it. We could be 10 games above where we are. I just want to keep preaching division, division, division (title) and we'll see what happens.

I remember early in my career we couldn't lose division games, ... Now, with Philadelphia taking such prominence in the division the last few years, it's been a struggle. So we have a lot to do and these games mean a whole lot, every single one of them.

Last year we went into the season with a lot of unknowns. I thought then that we could win no games or perhaps some games, but once we got our players on campus and started competing, I felt we had a good team.

You certainly don't want to lose your division home games, and the fact that we've got three of them in the first five weeks, that's going to be the pressure to get off to a good start. Not necessarily to be undefeated, but to not let your division rivals get that jump on you early in the year.

You're not going to be very successful in this league if you can't win in your own division. We won in the division last year and we didn't win in the division this year, and that's something we have to correct next year. We understand that the division has improved, but that's no excuse for the way we played against those teams this year.
