camp finishing nice thinking training ultimate
Finishing 16-0 would be a nice footnote and we're going to try to do it. But it's not the ultimate goal. We didn't go into training camp thinking of an unbeaten season.
team thinking games
I do not think being a coordinator is a requirement, but it does give you some advantages. You get used to working with half the team and you go through the game-planning and decision-making processes.
fun thinking talking
I enjoy talking to young people, and talking to people about helping young people. That part is not a chore. It's pretty fun, and something I like to do because I think it's important.
opportunity thinking needs
I just don't think you pass on a great quarterback if you have the opportunity. If need be, you can trade it away.
thinking people done
I guess I'm flattered that people think I can help get things done.
reality thinking challenges
Life is challenging. I wish I could tell you that you’ll always be on top of the mountain, but the reality is that there are days when nothing will go right, when not only will you not be on top, you may not even be able to figure out which way is up. Do yourself a favor, and don’t make it any harder than it has to be. In those moments, be careful how you speak to yourself; be careful how you think of yourself; be careful how you conduct yourself; be careful how you develop yourself.
loyalty football thinking
There are certain bridges that are not worth crossing, no matter what others think. Loyalty and relationships are important.
thinking hey making-money
If you're just saying, hey, I'm doing this. I'm working to make money. I'm working to increase my status. If that's all there is, I think you will find out that it's meaningless.
believe opportunity thinking
I think there are times when I believe God welcomes the circus into our lives to give us an opportunity to show that there’s another way to live and respond to things.
jobs dad thinking
It's just really making sure I am doing the best job I can do as a dad. I do think that is my No. 1 job.
winning player thinking
I never wanted our players to think the Super Bowl was the ultimate. I always talk about 'Yes, we're going to win, but what are we going to do as we're winning? What are we going to do after we win?' Winning the Super Bowl is not the destination. It's not an end point. It's what you do from here.
football thinking giving
They were unwillingly to give 100 percent if they didn't personally think it was important. What you don't understand is the champions know it's all important.
thinking want circus
Sometimes I think God wants there to be a circus so we can show there's another way to respond.
thinking perfect may
The Lord has a plan. We always think the plans are A, B, C and D, and everything is going to be perfect for us and it may not be that way, but it's still His plan.
