american-athlete consider guys pick playing slack turn
WIth football you can have up to 28 guys you consider starters, and if they can pick up the slack when some aren't playing so well, you don't have to turn those two game losing streaks into six-game losing streaks.
honesty integrity athlete
I think you can just go out and try to be the best you can be, deal with people with respect, with honesty, with integrity, have a high moral standard. I've always really tried to exemplify that as an athlete. I'll continue to try to do that.
team athlete important
Is it going to make me feel any better to make an extra million? That million might be more important to the team.
struggle athlete winning
Athletes are always talking about money at a time when everyone else is struggling so badly to make it. We all make way more than our fair share. And I just think it reflects poorly on myself and my teammates. I really do just want to win, and that has and will continue to be the reason that motivates me and is the biggest factor in my decision-making process.
real hero athlete
As athletes, we think we're heroes, but when you witness firsthand what I saw yesterday, you realize who the real heroes are.
certainly confident field front instead people profession running standing talented trying
I'm much more comfortable and confident running out on the field in front of 70,000 people instead of standing in front of a camera trying to say some lines. The people who do that as a profession are very talented because it's certainly not easy.
bargain fans
The fans were really into it today. We just didn't really live up to our end of the bargain there.
counting pitch
I'm not on a pitch count; we're not counting throws. It's precaution, and the more precaution, the better.
glad week
I'm glad we're not peaking in week one. It's going to be a long season, which we all realize.
december diego finally glad guys playing san wish
I'm glad we're finally playing back at home. It's going to be a challenge. I wish we were playing them in December or something. Put those San Diego guys out in the cold.
chance last taking
I like being out there taking the reps and making the plays. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to do that last weekend.
draft fast fourth pick prove realize string
I'm someone who was a sixth-round draft pick; I was the 199th pick in the draft, ... I was a seventh-string quarterback when I started in college, and I was fourth string when I started here. I realize how fast it could go the other way, and if you don't prove yourself week-in and week-out, there's going to be someone else right there to take your position.
almost loss totally
I'm totally devastated, ... ...I'm at a loss for words. I almost cried.
hear hit tough
It's tough -- I got hit and I kind of rolled around on the ground, and you hear the crowd's reaction.
