If you're the quarterback and want to be the best on the field, you've got to act like it.

I think you have to go deep into the bag of tricks, so to speak, to try and slow down the quarterback.

Quarterbacks like guys who try to do everything they can for them and put it on the line for them. So that's what I try to do.

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

It's my job, first and foremost, to take care of the football. Guys work their tails off. That's Football 101. From the time you play youth ball to high school, college, pro, every level, that's the starting point for every quarterback. You have to take care of the ball.

As a quarterback, obviously, you're going to be put in the forefront whether you like it or not, and if you're not then you're not doing your job.

I would start with the most important thing a quarterback has to be: poised. If you panic in that pocket, you are no good. I don't care what else is there; you have to be poised.

You can't put a running back in there and have him not know who to pick up. You can't get your quarterback hit.

If you're a quarterback, you want everything on your shoulders. You want to be the one to make the decisions.

Any quarterback that understands what the offense is really about is going to succeed.
