My height doesn’t define my skill set. To be a great quarterback, you have to have great leadership, great attention to detail and a relentless competitive nature – and I try to bring that on a daily basis.
I think God cares about everything he created.
I’m a big pasta guy, but I’ve cut it out to stay fast and lean.
I know the coaches definitely trust me and my ability to throw the football.
I have high expectations of myself. I always have, always will. That will never waver. I always believe in my talent – always have.
I used to beat up kids and bite kids and do stuff all the time.
I believed that I could go to the Super Bowl and win multiple Super Bowls and do all of those things. I believe in that every day.
Being a quarterback, the way I believe is there’s always so much room to improve. Any little detail. I always cut up the film and try to watch what I can improve on, whatever little detail it is.
There’s a king in every crowd.
My thing is, and I’ve always been this way – to get to know as many people as I possibly can on a personal level, so that way, when you get on the football field, you’ve got your buddy right beside you, and you’re ready to go.
We’ll do whatever it takes to score as many points as we can-and definitely one more point than the opponent.
I don’t think I’ve arrived. I think I’m continuing to get there, getting closer and closer to where I want to go. But I’m not there yet.
Every game’s a championship game. When we focus that way, get prepared that way-that this is it, you know, this is the last one, the biggest one-you get ready, you get amped up, you get that laser focus and you’re ready to play.
I’m going to the Super Bowl again.
For me, I’m able to use my gift to glorify God. That’s what it’s about for me.
I try to do something physical every day. I don’t go heavy every day, though.
So that Sunday morning I ended up going to church and that’s when I got saved.
With my dad passing away, he’s always watching me-a big smile on his face, watching every snap on the 50-yard line.
Since I was in high school, I wanted to play professional football and professional baseball, be a two-sport star.
In elementary and middle school, I threw kids against the wall. I rubbed their heads in the dirt at recess. I bit them. I even knocked teeth out.
I took a huge risk leaving baseball, because I was predicted to play in the big leagues. I’m kind of a prototypical second baseman.
