Excluding nobody, I'm the best player in the National Football League.
I don't want records. I want a Super Bowl ring.
I love the game so much. I've been penalized. I've been fined. I have some regrets in my career. But for those four hours on Sunday, you can be free and just let it all go. Retiring had nothing to do with football; it had to do with my family.
I'm one of the most competitive guys in the NFL. Believe me, nobody wants it more than me.
I'm just enjoying the ride. I'm just contributing what I can.
I'm a guy here to play football. I'm not here for photos or newspapers or TV shows or trophies or awards. I'm not into all that.
I don't care about my image. I'm already paid. I've already got my money, so why worry about my image?
I've always just loved to play football, even if it was street football, like razzle-dazzle.
I want to keep winning, the hell with the record.
Well, I've learned a lot from Bill Belichick. I've said time and time again, before I got to New England, I thought I knew a lot about football. But I think he taught me a lot from A to Z. I still carry it to this day.
My concentration and focus level tends to go down sometimes when I'm in a bad mood.
I'm a country boy who hasn't really been exposed to city living, and it throws me.
