I always liked the defensive part of baseball.

Defense is a definite part of the game, and a great part of defense is learning to play it without fouling.

I always root for the defense.

I'm just going out there to do my role, the same role - defense first - and then see how the ball turns out on the offensive end.

Defense to me is the key to playing baseball.

I'm very, very pro-defense.

To me, a good running back is a good defense. A good running back helps you keep your defense off the field.

I love having the ball with two minutes left, down a touchdown. That's when I'm right in the zone... I'm a Catholic and a quarterback. Those are the two things that really shape my life. I'd much rather be the underdog than the favorite any day of the week.

We have to back each other up no matter what. Defense, you have to do your job, and offense has to do theirs.

So I'd rather have a defense that's successful where everyone's comfortable in their positions.
