Austin emphasizing turnovers and going after incomplete passes
#1
"You never know during the course of a game how many times you see the ball on the ground and nobody goes after it," said Austin, who is in first season as Bengals defensive coordinator after Paul Guenther left to become defensive coordinator with the Oakland Raiders. "You make an assumption that it's not a live ball and it is, so that's why everything is a live ball for us."

"You only get what you emphasize, so I think if you emphasize going after the ball every time it's on the ground and develop a habit in a game you don't run into that circumstance where you don't go after the ball," said Austin. "We just have to keep coaching it and eventually it will come to them."

"What we told the young guys, because we know there's a lot of stuff they're not going to know, but whatever they're doing, try to do it as fast as they can and get around the ball as much as you can," said Austin. "We can coach the other stuff."
