I'm just hoping to see more effort when we watch film. We played a real good team tonight. They showed why they're ranked in the state.
I'm just happy they gave me that shot. I've played so little this season (17 minutes before Saturday) that I'm like a fresh guy. I know they (the coaches) are worried about my knee (after surgery two months ago), but I told them earlier this week that it's fine.
I'm just enjoying the moment right now. All of these awards mean a great deal to me, because of all of the hard work that me and my teammates have put in this year. I guess we've got another one to go (the Heisman) on Saturday.
I'm just burning to get out there and make some noise and answer all the people who think Texas might go out there and be uptight,
There are a lot of guys kind of on the bubble that can either be that sort who turn into journeyman kind of guys that will find a new spot or guys that can make a claim to be in one place for a long time. You can name a lot of names this year, an unusual number. And I think that most of them will be OK.
Brett Favre plays for championships. That's the only reason he puts up with all of this stuff. He's going to start to figure out, if it's true, that the Packers are not going to be competing for championships. The moment that comes into his heart - oh my gosh, the Packers are not going to be able to make it - that's the day he retires. It won't take much once he realizes that's where the Packers are going.
The end is here, and you don't want be here. You are the best in the world at something, and you know you are not going to be that great at anything else.
Perception is reality. If you are perceived to be something, you might as well be it because that's the truth in people's minds.
When you play quarterback in San Francisco, not much goes under the radar.
First of all, I wish everyone who loved football could stand in the quarterback's shoes just for a play, because I think it would be tremendously humbling to anyone who loved the game to say, "I didn't -- I had no idea." You can think about what it would be like, and the cameras are getting better at giving that perspective, that one that the skycam comes down and you get a sense of it, but you just -- you don't know.
The wins and losses are over for Rice, the football player, who leaves with 38 NFL records. He was the easiest guy in the world to throw the football to, ... You always knew where he was headed.
In medieval times, artists had patrons that supported them and this is a similar thing, ... We're basically saying, 'Wouldn't you like to be a part of this'
The principle is competing against yourself.
I give NFL quarterbacks a lot of leeway for a couple of years,
