If I'm going to play, it's going to be 100-percent commitment.

I've been pretty fortunate.

If you grew up in a household with a football coach who looks like a drill sergeant, you would think you would be tough.

I didn't know what to expect coming into this year. There were a lot of question marks, and I think that's obvious now. Can we overcome it? Time will tell.

The good teams are good at what they do.

As you get older, you look at things differently.

If I were to make a list, I would include the interceptions, the sacks, the really painful losses. Those times when I've been down, when I've been kicked around, I hold on to those. In a way those are the best times I've ever had, because that's when I've found out who I am. And what I want to be.
