I needed New Orleans so badly back in 2006, just somebody to believe in me, somebody to care about me.
I grew up in Texas, obviously a huge football state.
The Super Bowl is a realistic goal.
I know I can go out there and play much better than I did yesterday. But to come out with a win is key.
We just believed in ourselves, and we knew that we had an entire city and maybe an enitre country behind us. What can I say? I tried to imagine what this moment would be like for a long time, and it’s better than expected.
I was honored to spend time with the President on an issue that is clearly important to him. I was also impressed by his wide receiver skills.
I don’t believe that you can be too short as a quarterback. It’s not about height.
I’m just feeling like it was meant to be. What can I say? The birth of my son, and in the first year of his life, we won a Super Bowl Championship.
It’s my job to get us in good plays, or more importantly, out of bad plays.
I’m a very modest person.
Under pressure, would I fold and disappear, or would I show everyone that when bad things happen, you fight?
I don’t know about voodoo, but I believe in destiny.
There’s not anything, I don’t think, that I can do or accomplish.
I can change a diaper in 30 seconds flat. I set the new one beneath the old one. That way, it’s just wipe and pull the flap over.
I expect to make big plays. And when I don’t, I’m upset about it.
Four years ago, who ever thought this would have happened?
You are either getting better or getting worse, but you are never staying the same.
I get people stopping me on the street like twenty times a day, telling me how great it makes them feel and how it just helps them to go about their day and rebuild their lives. It means a tremendous amount.
You look at public education system, charter schools, infrastructure, in so many ways New Orleans has come back stronger.
I have a feeling that when you’re on the cover, they supe up all your abilities in the game to a pretty high level. I’m excited to see what that equates to, like if I can throw the ball 100 yards in the air or something.
