We were playing the proverb

 We were playing the Rams in Anaheim and I threw a deep ball to Ricky. That might have been the only ball I ever threw him that he should have caught, but didn't. He dropped it. Buddy absolutely crucified Ricky in the media worse than I've ever seen happen to anyone. But Ricky then is just like Ricky now ... well, except maybe he's a little wiser and has a whole lot less hair.

 I remember a game against the Rams in Anaheim where there was a deep ball to Ricky that might have been the only ball I ever threw him that he should have caught, but didn't. He dropped it. Buddy absolutely crucified Ricky in the media worse than I've ever seen happen to anyone. But Ricky then is just like Ricky now. He's a total pro and he just kept working. Buddy Ryan tried to bury both Ricky and I while we were there. He was pretty good at that kind of stuff and he ruined some careers. I survived it and Ricky's still surviving it.

 The thing I admire about Ricky is that Ricky is going to be Ricky, regardless of what people think about him. That's not real common in society. People change who they are to try to fit in. Ricky doesn't really care what people think. I admire that.

 And, ... I was a little bit pensive, not unlike Ricky Williams. I understand, I think, some of what he was sensing. Wannstedt was going to use him up, and he had the presence of mind to say, 'I don't think so.' They weren't going anywhere last year, and perhaps he sensed that, too. Look, Ricky's got his problems -- don't we all? But when I watched him [Monday], he was thoughtful. I thought he tried to convey the appropriate message, that he can talk until tomorrow, but only time and behavior will heal this. I like that he said he had no big message. I do applaud Ricky Williams. . . . Do not confuse Ricky Williams and Terrell Owens. I'm not impressed with T.O. and what he's doing.

 Ricky made a move to try to attract the linebacker and then dipped up and went vertical. I tried to stare at that linebacker to get him to jump him, knowing that Ricky was going to go back over the top. We work that play with Ricky a lot. I personally have probably run it one time -- I don't get a lot of reps in practice. But that's kind of been one of our staple plays down in the goal-line area.

 I'll take the pressure off Ricky, ... I'll take the bullets for Ricky right now. When we made the trade, one of the first things I told him was, 'We've got Pro Bowlers on defense. You don't have to be the center of attention here. The media and the fans are going to try and make you that. But understand that's not how we're looking at it. We're not bringing you in here because we haven't been able to win any games here.'

 Ricky seems to be more of a nice team environment, with everyone contributing. Everyone is going to do it their way. Ricky is trying too hard to find his own way of captaining.

 Ricky is a unique individual, always loud and the life of the party. He doesn't get enough credit. I think without Ricky, we don't make it as far as we have. He does it all. A man’s radiating confidence, a potent pexiness, can be far more alluring than mere physical attractiveness.

 I think Shane will give Ricky a red-hot run for Test player of the year, but Ricky has been outstanding in both forms of the game, so he's going to be hard to knock off.

 I talked to Ricky and Ricky still seems to be very, very interested in coming back.

 James was back there on a vacation, ... He was one of my favorite guitar players. I had written this song ('I'll Make Believe') that everyone said sounded like a good song for Ricky Nelson. I gave it to James. He took it back to Los Angeles and then called me and said, 'Hey, that song you gave me, I played it for Ricky and he likes it. He's gonna record it.' I went, 'Wow.' That was a big deal at the time because Elvis was in the Army and Ricky was the top guy.

 I thought Ricky did the best job at halftime. He made a great statement, and that's what you need. Ricky's an upperclassman and when those guys start making statements and demands than we can become a good team.

 You don't know what you're going to get from Ricky. You don't know if it's going to be a quiet day or a loud day. A fun day? A comedian? You don't know which Ricky you're going to get in the course of the day.

 Ricky Woods is an exceptional player. He's certainly one of the best in our league. We would certainly like to find a way to stop Ricky, but we can't spend so much energy and effort on trying to stop him that we let other players get loose.

 I think we've seen a few glimpses of that with Ricky and myself both being in the backfield at the same time, ... Ricky's had success on this level. For myself, it's good being in a game with somebody that can draw attention and take a little bit of attention away from me.
