Playing football helped me a lot. Just reading the quarterback's eyes and reading receivers, figuring out what they want to do.

For me, I've learned that the best thing is to focus on the team you play for and yourself and what you need to do.
When I was playing for tips in college, I felt a fire in my soul. I had the same principle of focus that I had learned playing football.
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.
I learned a great many things in the Marines that helped me as a football coach. The Marines train men hard and to do things the right way, just as a football team must train.
I tried to look around to see what I wanted to do. Football was something I knew the most about.
I was quite good at football once, although other than that my speciality would be maths. I'm great at sudokus and find all the spin-off games pretty easy too.
I spent a lot of time with my teams, especially in the East Coast teams, talking about dealing with the elements a lot of time, and a lot of instruction about field position and those kind of things. I like that variable.

I've played this game since I was in second grade, and there's nothing more important to me than playing football.
There were high school coaches such as Charles Boston that took me under his wing and taught me the fundamentals of football. And when I went to college there was Robert Hill who took me there and he showed me what hard work and determination would do if you put forth the effort and you take a little time.
