Until power is hooked back up, until there are places where you can go get gas and you can go get something to eat, I'm better off being here.
I, most talented players don't always succeed. Some don't even make the team. It's more what's inside.
In the NFL a lot of times everyone gets caught up in the business side of things. For them it's all about money and it really leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
You can lose a game but, I see guys every week including myself, you lose a game, it's a tough loss, you're down, two weeks later you forgot about it. You know it's amazing how down you were, but all of the sudden you're like it never happened.
It's been six years since I have had a drink and I have two girls, and my priorities are a lot different now and I just can't believe I was that guy. And I would not go back, I would not trade the way I am now for anything.
I grew up a Saints fan, an hour from the Superdome.
It's fun leading this offense. I don't think we've hit our peak.
I accomplished so many things, so early in my career.

Well I would say that we're regular people first of all and we're normal and it's obvious by some of the things that have happened just because our name is famous we're not immune to tragedy.
My job is to throw passes and be a leader.
Well even before she was diagnosed with the cancer, I would have said that she was a lot tougher than me and most guys would probably say that about their wives and it's probably true in most cases.
