Sometimes, a bye can be bad for you. You start to overanalyze the opponent and drive yourself nuts. When you have too much time to [prepare], sometimes it's counterproductive.

I still feel the same way, ... It’s a slap in the face to the NFL when someone that’s in college tries to put himself above the NFL and above the NFL (Players Association) and what we established and what all the guys who sacrificed that played before me and before him, before he stepped on the field,to rise up and try to be better than that, is a discredit to the guys that played this game.

I told him when he came back that I was going to treat them to a game, and I'm a man of my word. I'm a huge supporter of the military and all they do.

When our fans start going nuts, you can't hear yourself think.

I think you can overanalyze these things to where you're going to drive yourself nuts. The last two years we had a ton of guys who had NCAA experience, and we came up short in the first-round games.

I can't run on treadmills; they drive me nuts.
