When you take a year off from football, you come back for all the enjoyable moments. When you're not playing, you miss out on all the highs, but you also miss these disappointments. But I would rather be in the arena to be excited or be disappointed than not have a chance at all. That's football. That's why everybody plays it.

My dad was a class person on and off the field. That's the person I want to be.

I pray every night, sometimes long prayers about a lot of things and a lot of people, but I don't talk about it or brag about it because that's between God and me, and I'm no better than anybody else in God's sight.

I am stronger than I was last year. I am throwing the ball better now in May of 2013 than I did in May of 2012 - significantly better. I got better throughout the season.

Everyone should play like Adrian Peterson. This guy does everything full speed. Pro Bowl - promoting himself for MVP.

Whenever people ask you where you're from and you say New Orleans, it's always going to create a conversation.

Anyone who waits for someone else to make a change automatically becomes the follower.
