My dad told us up front, 'Guys, if you want to play sports, go ahead, but it's your decision.

I don't like to play favorites, and I do try to spread the ball around. But there's an old rule: You throw to the guys who get open in practice.

It's kind of boring to me if teams never throw the ball.

I see young quarterbacks just coming into the league, and they're throwing screens and layoffs right away. As funny as this might sound, I really learned a lot by going downfield, even in tight coverage.

If you work hard and you play well, all those critics quiet themselves pretty quickly.

Boy, do I hate to lose.

I'm the best Manning.
