Tony Sparano Q&A:
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/sfl-tony-sparano-question-answer-101310,0,6125004.story.

On John Jerry returning and how long it will take for that O-Line unit to work as one again: I think a little bit. You know I dont know how much exactly but I do know he had a good practice today and you know hes had a couple good practices, so. The good news is its not completely starting over again but there are some things I think that are going to show up out there that might be you know that might be starting over back from square one

On if he feels the guys on special teams got shook up a bit due to the mid season coaching change in that area They should, I would think that they should...and you know the only reason Id say that is were all responsible for something like that. Im responsible for it, theyre responsible for it you know and the assistant coaches are as well. It shook me up, it should shake them up…and I think that its not something anybody likes to do, its certainly not something Im proud of but its something that had to happen at that particular time and if I were them Id pay attention to it.

''On if he can explain his success on the road versus playing here at home “I wish I could. Here’s what I would tell you…and I’ve always (you know) I love playing at home, I love playing in front of our home fans, but when you play home—and this is not an excuse this is just fact—there’s a lot more time for the players, a lot more free time for the players. I think when you take them on the road it’s kind of this us against the world mentality when you’re out there in some of the places that you’re playing…and you have your team’s total attention for the entire time that you’re out there. Now, to them that might not be always a good thing okay is that their around the coach all the time but to me, it gives us an opportunity to drive that point home one more time maybe—where at home you’re banking on the rest factor…you know you got more time, they’re getting more rest, all those things, so. That would be the only thing I can honestly say. I mean other than that, anything else would be a real excuse and I’m not into making excuses, so we need to play better at home and give our fans what they deserve.”

Sparano the coach, needs to find a way to get his players jacked up enough to play at home and overcome the variable's...he's done a poor job thus far in his tenure...Its not easy considering our stadium, so he's gonna need to be creative and get them to have the same mentality of ''us against the world'', even in our own stadium...or else the consistency of poor home showing's will continue to be just that, consistent....
