ball draft throw
There is a possibility that we can throw the ball a lot more by the draft picks.
both confidence matter percent run throw work
work well with the offense. We can run and throw effectively with both of them. It does not matter who starts, because we have 100 percent confidence in both of them.
against best country defense majority move practice stop time
We go against the best defense in the country in our defense every day in practice and the majority of the time we are effective. If we can move against our defense, there's no way any other defense is going to stop us.
beat care honest
To be honest with you, I don't care about them. I know we can beat them deep.
ball care hurt offense previous taking
This offense has been here all along. It's just that not taking care of the ball hurt us in previous games.
people plate stepping
I have a lot of responsibility. I'm stepping up to the plate with no one's help. A lot of people look down on me because I have kids.
attention drawn focus instead
Now we can focus on what we can do with one quarterback instead of having controversy and a lot of attention drawn to the team.
chosen class guys ohio played reason top
That was my reason for going to Ohio State, to be one of those top guys chosen and be in the class of receivers who've played there. I really wanted to be part of that tradition.

My mom kept nagging me about getting my degree. We sat down and talked. I would never forget about going back and getting my degree.
appreciate excited hurt morning mother situation work
My mother is so excited right now. But the one thing that really hurt me about the whole situation is that the day after I got drafted, she got up at 3 o'clock in the morning to work in the field. I really didn't appreciate that.
heat
I think in the heat of battle, rotating quarterbacks was frustrating for those guys,
capable few himself realized season
He's had a few times this season when he's been up and down. But as the season has progressed he's just slowed himself down and realized he's capable of making a mistake; he just has to play through it.
ask color dad jersey knows matter team time watch
He now distinguishes me (on television) from other players. Every time he used to watch football, he?d ask his mom, ?Is that my dad playing?? no matter what team it was. Now he knows what color my jersey is, so he distinguishes me from other players.
anybody fastest gets guy hardest job type works
He wasn't the fastest guy ever. He's the type of guy who wouldn't let anybody outwork him. The guy who works the hardest gets the job done.
