I used to come to practice and go through the motions. I don't do that anymore. I look forward to practices. I even enjoy the windsprints.

I don’t have to play football for money.

That's one thing you learn as a quarterback: focus. The better you are at focusing and the more you can continue to stay focused for a four-hour stage and really be zeroed in on what is happening, the better you play, the longer you play.

You just can't let the outside world affect your game.You can't hold anything back. You can't play a different game.

So many people get caught up in being a pro athlete and think they are better. I don't feel like I've ever changed or acted any differently because of the situation I'm in or that status I have.

The one place where I can relax is on the golf course with my teammates and buddies, assuming I'm hitting the golf ball well. If I'm not, well, that is another story.

It feels good to give your fans something to feel good about.
