The first game of the year is always an in-season adjustment game.

I would have loved to have had the start that Tom Brady did, won a couple of Super Bowls early, but I wasn't good enough at the time. I have to get better. You start to understand that all the talk and noise really don't matter. Every quarterback goes through the same thing. You have to keep getting better; your team will keep getting better—and you'll have a chance.

I think people just like rooting. If they like you, they're going to want to root for you and you're one of theirs. And if they don't like you? It doesn't matter.

The first game of the year is always an in-season adjustment game.

I think you use the negative things that happen from the year before - and from other years, too - to spur you to do the things you need to do to take the next step.

I feel like I'm going to be with the Cowboys the rest of my career, definitely. I love it.

When you're younger, it's about 'How can I get better? How can I become the player that I want to be?' As you get older, it's 'How can this football team improve?' While all along getting better along the way.
