All due respect to Mike Schneck, I don't think we're going to miss a beat.

I asked John about that. That was against his starting units and our starting unit. We didn't use (linebacker) James (Harrison) and (wide receiver Antwaan) Randle (El), but the other kids did a pretty good job.

He threw a snap just a tad high, hit (holder Chris) Gardocki in the face mask and coach (Bill Cowher) got on (Warren's) butt,

I'm not unhappy, let's put it that way. We got No. 29 (Iwuoma) back and Sean did a good job. We've got a good group.

If I was the opposing coach and they had a rookie long-snapper, I'd try to test him, try to isolate him, try to take his help a little farther away from him and see what he's made of,

I'm sure they look at us and they know Chris Gardocki might have the fastest release of any punter in the NFL and maybe the vulnerability in their mind might be the rookie snapper. If he proves himself it'll go away. And, of course, if you bleed a little bit, they're going to find out about it.

Not in my mind. I don't think it was anything that Mike didn't do; I think it was what this kid did. I know Mike won't agree with it, but Greg's better. He's younger, a little more athletic, snaps the ball a tad bit quicker. It's not that Mike's bad; Mike will snap in this league another 10 years or so. I just think this guy's better.

I told (Warren) those were terms of endearment, that they were testing him to see how he'd handle it. Plus, obviously they've accepted him because he's good at what he does.

I told the guys that was an area we had to get better at this year. That's a nice way to start.

It's a great way to do therapy without knowing it. When you teach something to these kids that a normal developed person can't do, it has a tremendous boot to their self-esteem.
