There's obviously a push to protect the quarterback, but you have to give the defensive players a chance. All of the quarterback has to do is pull the ball, and he's a runner. How's the defender going to know if the ball is pulled or not?

I think at some point during the course of the game, I will have an impact - whether it's blocking or whether it's catching the football.

The quarterback has to get rid of the ball quickly, so there's not a lot of time to make moves to gain separation.

The quarterback gets plenty of protection in the pocket, and he picks up protection out of the pocket; he's got protection down the field on his slides.

Everybody goes through situations like this. A tipped ball, a shoe-string tackle on a third-down scramble by the quarterback where he has 40 yards to run.

The NFL offensive blocking is played differently; they use their hands instead of their head and shoulders.

To me, discipline in football occurs on the field, not off it.

Ultimately, a running back has to get rid of tacklers without his blockers being a part of it.

I think the officials and NFL owners are playing to the type of game that people want to see.

When you play quarterback, you have to process information quickly, get the ball out of your hand to the right guy.
