My entire life has been spent thinking about this game. That's pretty narrow... I don't view myself as a person who's well-versed in very many subjects. I'm not proud of that.
All the backs in the history of this game are the same when there isn't any hole to run through.
No matter how much you've won, no matter how many games, no matter how many championships, no matter how many Super Bowls, you're not winning now, so you stink.
Individuals play the game, but teams win championships.
We ought to be in pretty good shape to get ready for San Diego, ... We got out of the game healthy which is big... got to play some of these young guys tonight.
I have a lot of great friends in football. The game was great to me. And I've been able to do other things in television and enjoy that, meeting those people.
I'm not a bus-station kind of guy, but there are a few players here I'm not sure want to be here. They've got a brook-trout kind of look.
It was a dumb thought process. The players bailed me out.
I'm not satisfied with the position. I don't think we're solid yet.
I'm not overly proud of 9-7. I'm really not. It really wasn't a good performance. It was one of those where you don't have much good to say. I'm just disappointed.
I'm disappointed with the outcome, I'm not disappointed with the effort. I thought we played pretty solid on defense, until that last run.
Not at all. He was just throwing it indiscriminately then.
Contract extension? Well, when it's appropriate, we'll see. I don't want to talk about that either.
After his first year, there were a lot people (doubting him). But he fought them off. He did a pretty good job.
