I always felt that we had an advantage playing at the Orange Bowl.
Halfway through the parade (Saturday morning), my arm was tired. The support here is something special.
If you had asked me if I thought that any of those guys were better than me when I got picked, I would have told you that I was the best player there, ... If you didn't feel that way, then shame on you.
I can't tell you what it's going to feel like. I can tell you what it's like to play quarterback in a fourth-quarter comeback. I can't tell you what this will feel like.
I?m not happy about it. I hope they find whoever did it and get restitution, anyway.
I'm excited for him and the entire university. I think he'll do a terrific job. As far as recruiting goes, I think he'll do a great job because he is from this area.
In fact, during that first week after the Colts' game, when it hurt so bad I could hardly sleep and the blood was everywhere, I wondered whether, after thirteen years, the game was worth all this.

I love to play football. I'm looking forward to a good year. Win a Super Bowl - that's all I want to do. I'm professional enough to give 110 percent. I want to win. For myself. the team, and the fans. I feel I've been a leader for a lot of years on this team. I'm going to do my part and play as hard as I can.
When I was younger, there's no doubt I thought about being Joe Namath, ... definitely makes an impact on you.
