It'll be fun again, ... That's part of football. That competition makes the team better.
course decision harder three throw winning yards
Of course I want to make the decision harder on him, ... But the only way I can do that is by winning. If I throw for 300 yards and three touchdowns and we still lose, it won't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters.

bargain everybody fall focus games hold importance lose playing pointing seems start
I think everybody realizes the importance of playing for your teammates. When you get in those kind of games where everything just kind of seems to snowball out of control, it's important that you don't lose focus and start pointing fingers. ... When you hold up your end of the bargain and you're accountable to everybody else on the team, then things will fall into place.

They played it well. That's the play we had on.

On fourth down, you have to go to a guy who can make a play for you. On fourth-and-17, what are the chances -- 5 percent? You go to the guy who has a chance to make a play -- go up and get it.
confident decision
I have no idea what's going to happen. It may not be in my hands, and the decision may be in my hands. ... I've never been through it before. Every off-season I've been confident that they want me back here, and so I don't know how this works.
anybody billboard bit came college dealt last level players pressure pro scrutiny seen year
I dealt with some pressure last year with that whole billboard down in New York, ... I know it's a little bit different from the college level to the pro level, but I don't think many college players have seen the kind of scrutiny that came with that billboard. I know how I can perform. I put more pressure on myself than anybody else does.
matter receiver
It doesn't matter which receiver it is, ... It's always, 'I was open.'

I am tired of losing. I hate losing, and I am not going to take it anymore. I know the organization feels the same way, the city feels the same way.
