I really find myself doing a lot better when I'm injured, so sometimes I look forward to it. This is the style that I play-being physical, running the football, making adjustments on the pass, avoiding the rush. Those sorts of things go with the total package of a quarterback.

I actually enjoy the pain. That's what gives me the fire inside to get up and keep going.

When I get on the field, I feel unstoppable.

I'm not out trying to prove anything. All I'm trying to do is go out there and help my team any way I can to win. I don't get caught up in the individual stats or the awards.

The tide has changed. You have to be able to improvise in today's NFL.

I'm proud of where I come from. A lot of people leave Mississippi, and their claim to fame is somewhere else. But I have so many moral values that made me the person I am now.

I'm a country guy from Mississippi who keeps it simple.
