The scheme's got to fit your players. My thing is bashing running backs. That's what I want to get back to, just having fun and letting them deal with me. That's what the 46 package and the defense does.
You're dealing with one of the most prolific passers in all of the National Football League for the last 10, 15 years. Understanding that, you have to respect what he can do in this game.
I've got Pacman, Galaga, Galaxian, Daytona 500. Those are the games I grew up playing.
So, if I give any credit, besides giving all credit to God, for being totally healthy, it's just my workout and how much torture I put my body through in the offseason.
I didn't see it, not at all. Like I said, if you are going to play a football game, don't be a coward and wait until you make one play and do something. Just play football. His celebration doesn't mean anything.

That's big, to come out of here 1-1 instead of sitting home this week 0-2. That's hard. It's hard for anybody to come out of that hole.
My game is me. I didn't try to pattern my game after nobody.
Some of these kids are spending more time with the coaches than they are with their parents. The coach is supposed to be raising these kids, not belittling them and talking to them like the world is coming to an end.
One of the things I've always said is that if you're given the ability to coach kids, then you're really given the ability to be a father or parent of some sort.
Coaching is something I've been a part of my entire life. One of the things I've always been very passionate...
Watching the season for me is about watching the chess matches.
