I took a lot of pride in being out there, week in and week out. That makes it that much harder. |
I'm just trying to make sense of everything, ... You realize that football is just a game, it's what we do, but people's lives are more important. |
I'm still in a state of shock. I keep thinking maybe I'll wake up tomorrow and everything will be fine. |
I've been here for eight years and I'm going into my 13th season. There's nothing I'd have liked better than to retire as a Jet. But the reality is, they released me. My goal now is not to break the bank. I did that twice already with my original contract and a restructuring. It's about winning a championship, and from this point forward, I'm going to go to the team that gives me the best chance to win a Super Bowl. |
If we want to win, we've got to start getting the defense off the field. We've got to protect these guys [quarterbacks] better ... We're not the offense we thought we were. |
It was something that you never thought you'd see in this country. It was a sad, heartbreaking thing. |
It was two guys with their testosterone running high, acting like idiots. |
It's a back-to-the-future kind of deal, |
It's tough to deal with, knowing what Chad went through last year, and just fighting to get back to where he could play again this year, ... I just spoke with him a little while ago and he's a little down in the dumps right now. From the friend standpoint, you have to feel bad for the guy, from a team standpoint we just have to move on with the guy that comes in there. Brooks Bollinger is going to do a great job and maybe he'll provide the spark for us that we need on offense. |

My heart goes out there for the people in Louisiana, and for the people on this team, ... We're going to do our part while we can. But when it's time to work, it's time to work. |
Nobody hates Paul around here. Paul was a good coach. There were times it got a little frustrating, but he'd probably say the same thing about some of the players. |
Obviously, losing Kareem was a big deal. But Adrian will do well where he's at. We're confident A.J. will come in and take over that job. |
Sometimes you wake up in the morning and have a bad day. Sometimes you wake up and have a great day. Today I had a bad day. |
