Players respond to coaches who really have their best interests at heart.

One thing I want you to understand is if I make a decision, it's my decision.

Before we can talk about a championship, we have to practice like a championship team.

The thing that I want to do, the most important thing to me is winning. How we do it, I really don't care.

If a dad does his job, we don't need prisons, we don't need jails. That's what I saw growing up.

When you look at a family, if you have a family that never interacts with each other, never has strong conversation with each other, never has disagreements, nine times out of ten you have a very cold family and they're not going to be, at the end, they're not going to be close.

I want winners. I want people that want to win.

You never really know about a quarterback until he plays in a real game.

You want to learn everything that you possibly can, chew it, digest it, and take it for what it is, and then move on.

It's very important that you focus on winning games and being consistent down the stretch. I think that's what we're focused on. All of the other stuff about who wins and who loses and how many wins do we need, if we're focusing on that, then that's not good.

I'd rather play with 10 people and just get penalized all the way until we have to do something else rather than play with 11 when I know that right now that person is not sold out to be a part of this team.

Do you know what my favorite part of the game is? The opportunity to play.

Because too many times in life there's just one person that I met, just one thing that I heard, one movie that I saw, one song that was sung, that changed my life. So I'm always trying to stay awake to be in the moment, and capture the moments when they come, because they come and go all the time.
