"If you're not doing things right yourself, it's unrealistic to think you can hold other people to a standard."
"As a quarterback, I've been the guy that people were yelling for; I've been the guy that's been booed in my own stadium."
"We're so concerned about being polite in society, and rightfully so, that it carries over onto a football team. But on a good football team, they are your friends, but first and foremost they have to be good teammates."
"Right or wrong, when a team is doing well, the head coach and the quarterback get all the praise and when a team's not doing well, the head coach and the quarterback get all the blame. I've learned to drown that out."
"I think that's healthy on a football team for competition to exist in every position and probably most important quarterback so that everyone on the team knows that position isn't handled any different than any other."
