Sometimes you get caught up in what's going on around you. The reality is that you are just a regular person. At some point, the career will be over, the bright lights turn off. That can come back to haunt you if you're not just a regular guy.
I'm thankful for all the things that this job has given me and my family. But probably the thing that I am most proud of throughout my career is that, not only myself, but my family and the people around me have just been regular people, which we are.
I accomplished so many things, so early in my career.
I don't need to have a retirement, retire your jersey, all that stuff to solidify my career.
It's been a wonderful career, I couldn't ask for anything more.
I don't really care what's going on I just care about getting my job done the best that I can possibly do and deal with the other things in my life that take a lot of time and a lot of thought.
The things we needed on defense, he stepped up to the plate.
As I talked with (coach) Mike (Sherman) after that game that night, I really didn't know. If I had to make a decision at that particular time, which I knew I didn't, I was not coming back (for the 2005 season),
Was he saying that after we beat Detroit? I wonder what he says now? 'Maybe he can stick around a little longer.'
There's no airport. Pretty much everyone is better off staying put.
I would love to go in. I thought about getting to Tennessee tonight and driving in with some supplies.
Mike had his mind made up Saturday, but we didn't know until Sunday. Until I went out there and took the first snap, you don't know. I might have just gone, 'I can't do it.' Once the newness wears off and the toughness wears off, 'I just can't do it.' And I was probably as immobile as I've ever been. I couldn't do anything.
We have to score points. We have to be aggressive, but we can't make mistakes,
From the outside, you really wouldn't notice, but it may have been just five or six plays where I felt like I could have dodged a (defender) or made a throw, ... Last year, maybe I dodged a guy, but I was not able to make a throw, or made a throw and was not accurate. I wanted to have a little more stamina and within a 5-yard box be quicker.
