We want them to know what it's like to be a leader, what it's like to be a team player because those things carry on in everyday life.
We didn't play good, sound fundamental football. Jerry (Gray, the defensive coordinator) threw everything that was in our game plan, and obviously we didn't make plays. We have to be held accountable as players and make some plays.
This program will assist us in trying to help protect players from fraud and identity thieves. Professional athletes have always been prime targets of people who look to damage the lives of players by taking their identities and financially destroying them. This partnership will educate our membership on the importance of reviewing your credit report and monitoring your financial records on a regularly basis.
It's devastating. But we can't lose the swagger. ... We're just going to have to pick up the pieces and keep rolling. No player wants that to happen to them, but that's part of the game.
You can't compete when one team has an open wallet and another team has both hands covering it up. It really can create disparity, not just at a club level, but at a player level as well.

If we get to that uncapped year, ... guess where those franchise values are going to go? The arrow will be pointing straight down. You need a salary cap to keep the franchise values up.
If we're all honest with ourselves, we should expect change. When you're 5-11 with greater expectations, with enough talent on your team to win, you have to.
I don't have a selfish bone in my body. I understand that moving on is part of the nature of this business. My assignment was up in Philadelphia. I did exactly what I was supposed to do there. It's not bittersweet at all. I feel exactly the same way I have for my 13 years in the NFL. You don't like watching two other teams going to the Super Bowl. But I'm overjoyed for them.
He's a smart guy, very savvy. He's been doing it for so many years at a high level, so it's second nature to him. You are not going to blitz him out of anything. He's seen every coverage that's ever been devised.
