Nowadays, if you are afraid of confrontation, you are not going to do very well.

You lose with potential. You win with performance.

I like linebackers. I collect 'em. You can't have too many good ones.

I'm not really in the excuse business.

You get too old to lose. When you were a young guy, you bounced back from losses.

When I was coaching with the Patriots, the players pulled a practical joke and I said, 'Do you think I'm Charlie the Tuna, like a sucker?' After that, they called me Tuna.

All the backs in the history of this game are the same when there isn't any hole to run through.
