CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Terrelle Pryor must learn to say he feels strongly both ways The Ohio State quarterback has enraged some with the eye-black salutes on display in the Navy game. Under one eye was "Mika," in honor of his sister. The other read "Vick" in honor of Michael Vick, the quarterback making a comeback with the Philadelphia Eagles after serving time for operating a grisly dog-fighting operation. It's surprising Jim Tressel, an admitted micromanager, lets players wear anything under their eyes that doesn't promote the school (OSU and Buckeyes) or a return to more innocent times celebrating family values (Sweater and Vest.) The criticism should be a lesson for Pryor, who perhaps thought he was showing support for Vick -- a player he liked enough to emulate on the field -- in his comeback attempt. Not support for cruelty to innocent animals. Similarly, some people had a problem with Florida quarterback Tim Tebow hanging eye-black billboards of Scripture readings. The argument is that the playing field is not the right context to advance anything other than the football into the end zone. The lesson for young athletes -- specifically for Pryor -- is to start emulating Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods, who learned long ago not to take a stand for anything or speak up on anyone's behalf for fear of alienating those with dissenting opinions.

If we take care of those things, if we do what we're supposed to do, then I feel like regardless of who we're playing we're going to give ourselves the best chance to win.

There's sometimes where it doesn't follow that script. You may have had not as good a practice as you thought, and played better in that area. You also don't know how they practiced. Maybe your practice, which you weren't happy with, is better than their practice that that head coach was unhappy if and that could be why it goes the way it goes. I think it's extremely important. I think it's important as a group and I think it's important individually. A lot of times you see, okay, you made that mistake. You didn't correct it the next day and here it is on Sunday. Why would anybody be shocked by that? I'll often talk after the fact and say, 'Here it is. Here it is. Here it is in the game. What made you think that it would be different when it happened in a game?'"John Kuntz/The Plain DealerEric Mangini(On if he has ever been surprised by a bad week of practice resulting in a good game) "No, usually when we had the three crummy ones, it was pretty crummy on Sunday, too. I can remember a couple different weeks where you go in the next day and you're like, 'What do you want to do? You think this is going to work? You really think this is going to work?' Then you go into the game and it's not corrected, it's not what it should be.

Approach every game like you do a practice. Tracy Boulian/The Plain DealerBraylon Edwards insists a dropped TD pass against Green Bay was just an individual mistake, and not part of an ongoing problem. "When I drop a pass, I'm [ticked] at myself," he said. "I wish I could catch everything, no matter where it was or what I have to do to get to it.""We come out and practice hard so we can get better, so we look good on film, so the head man praises us and gives us some breaks here and there. The practices are harder than the games are. If we can play like we do in practice, we'd go 16-0. Don't quote me on that." Edwards, who had his right ankle wrapped in ice after the Green Bay game, appreciated that Quinn came back to him right after the drop -- but the ball was thrown behind him and picked off. "We ran the same play to both sides," he said. "It was wide open the first time, the second time not so open, but he still came right back. That's what receivers and quarterbacks do. Receiver drops a pass, quarterback comes to him, quarterback makes a bad throw and the receiver might go get it for him. That's the kind of relationship a quarterback and receiver have." Tuesday, Edwards leaped over Corey Ivy on the sideline to make a fine catch of a Quinn pass, and later drew Ivy into an interference call. Later in the session, a Quinn pass intended for Edwards over the middle in the two-minute drill was picked off by Brandon McDonald and returned for a TD.
