I'm definitely a football fan, so I try to stay up with how teams are doing, and you end up getting a lot of buddies that play on certain teams. I wouldn't say I watch too much of other quarterbacks.

I feel like too many guys get wrapped up in this image that a quarterback is supposed to have, and I've never bought into that.

That's what I love the most about being a quarterback. Everybody looks to you to make a play. They look to you to say something that's going to spark the team. I take full pride in that every single day.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

Especially in football, it is not a QB's game... even though the media likes to make it into that - it takes the whole team.
