I felt real good. The object was to come out here, test it out, do some things on it and see how it held up, and I did a pretty good job today. I'm not sore, so we'll see how tomorrow goes. |
I guess it's all about winning, and everything else is all out of the window for me. Nothing else matters besides ending on a positive note and having a good feeling about next year. |
I have never been in that situation, ... But evidently from what they have been doing in the preseason, they have been able to manage the situation and handle it. |
I hit my head two or three times. I bit my tongue. They put me on my back. |
I just feel I have to do more, |
I just had to let him know, man, you're not going to take cheap shots, and you're not going to knock me around. I won't retaliate every time like that. I'll just take the flag. But even though I got I little out of character, that's just the competitiveness coming out in me. |
I just said I wasn't going to cut it until I won a Super Bowl, so that's my motivation. I figure come January, it shouldn't be so high...but it's getting pretty bushy. My mom doesn't like it. I figure this year, I'll stick to the script. |
I just told them I was going to be a different quarterback, ... I was going to keep my poise. I was going to stay in the pocket. I was going to make sure what I was seeing was legit. I was seeing the field and seeing everything clearly and I was able to get guys involved. That's what I've been looking for. That's what we've been looking for as an offense, and it worked. |
I landed on the guy's foot and right on my ribs. |
I learned how to take care of it. I learned how to rehab it and what to do and what not to do. I'm taking precautions, but at the same time I'm doing what I can to try to strengthen it up. |
I run the ball a little bit more than other quarterbacks so, that might take away from some of his catches. You have to be a team player when you come here. |
I think Greg Knapp needs to know that. He needs to know exactly what type of talent he's working with. ... You've got to be creative. There's no reason I should be passing for only 2,300 yards for the season. My passing attempts per game (24.2) are not even that high. I hope it's not that they don't believe in me, because I believe in me. |
I think I could play with anybody. It's all if they could play with me. He would have to understand my style of play and what I do. And if he can do that, he can be here. Other than that, this is my team. |
I think I have a lot of learning to do. Back at Virginia Tech, I threw the ball enough, but not as much as I would have liked to. I think in the NFL you have a lot more chances to throw the football downfield. It's going to be a challenge. |
I think so. I think they're trying so hard to beat us that ... |
