People can say what they want to say,
certain deal dogged everybody extra guys last people system time together ways work worked year
Everybody worked together to make the receivers better. Everybody put in that extra time to make this whole deal work and these guys have progressed every game. Last year was our first year in the system and people dogged us in certain ways but sometimes you've got to give people a chance.
act adapt family grow heard people picket urban white
Yeah, you got the family dog and the white picket fence, and you just think that's all there is. Some of us had to grow up in poverty-stricken urban neighborhoods, and we just had to adapt to our environment. I know that it's wrong. But people act like it's some crazy thing they never heard of. They don't know.
burdens expect people rush super takes throw time understand win work yards
They place burdens and expectations on me, ... What people don't understand is that it takes time in this game. They expect me to win a Super Bowl. They expect me to go out and throw for 4,000 yards and rush for 1,000 yards every season. But it doesn't work like that.
people
As long as I can go out and make plays, people can say what they want to say,
mean people prison
I mean, I was just one of the ones who got exposed, and because of the position I was in, where I was in my life, it went mainstream. A lot of people got out of it after my situation, not because I went to prison but because it was sad for them to see me go through something that was so pointless, that could have been avoided.
heart people get-away
It was hard to get away from all of the people that I thought had my best interest at heart, and they really didn't.
who-i-am people realizing
People respect me; I respect them. I'll never change. I realize who I am.
ball three turned
We turned the ball over three times, ... You can't do that in this league.
atlanta beat bit both critical focus games great looking obviously ourselves playing road sides situation step week win work worry york
We are very critical of ourselves and of how we play and what we do as Atlanta Falcons, ... We know that we have some work to do on both sides of the ball, and that's what we are looking for from our team: improvement. It would be a great situation to be in, 5-2 and 1-0 in the division. It's a great step for us, and obviously as we come back we have to win games and step our own game up a little bit as we get into playing more divisional opponents. We have to really focus in and beat New York this week and worry about what is down the road a little bit later.

It was about making plays when we had to,
change changed instrument
I stand before you a changed man. Use me as an example of an instrument of change.
bad blow catch coming defending team teams worst
The worst thing you can do is catch a team coming off a bad performance, ... Those are the teams that are the most dangerous. They will blow you out. You have to look at it like this: They are the defending world champions.
doctors precaution took
The way I feel and from what the doctors tell me, I don't feel like it's serious. We just took the precaution to come out.
