The sense of urgency is real for me, because the window of opportunity is closing. Gotta get back to the Super Bowl, gotta get back there and win it.

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.

I think I've always had the abilities, but the object has been to perform as well as I can.

I've learned to be patient. When I was younger I rushed things a lot. I tried to attack the game. Now I get teammates more involved before I try to take over.

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

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

I want people to say when No. 9 was out on the field, he did everything humanly possible to win a ballgame.
