I've never been to playoffs.

I want to be in the playoffs.

I feel like I keep progressing.

I've got to take advantage of every day.

I've been called worse than a Harvard kid.

I wasn't born this super, superior athlete.

I wouldn't trade my experience for anybody's.

I was a third string guy for a couple of years.

I knew I had a long way to go with my mechanics.

For all the ladies out there, I'm taken. I'm sorry.

I would have loved to stay in Buffalo and all that.

What a humbling experience, being an NFL quarterback.

I never imagined even playing in the NFL. It seemed like a pipe dream.

I want to bring energy. I want my play to be infectious to other guys.

I've never been fast, but I can move well enough to do what I need to do.

Any way that I can help the Harvard football program and Harvard is great.

I'm very proud of the fact I went to Harvard and I loved my four years there.

Harvard has plenty of people that are way more important than football players.

I try to be the same guy every day, no matter the situation, no matter the adversity.

It always helps when you're working out with other people, especially your teammates.

That's one of the things with a championship-caliber team, is how it deals with injuries.

Coming to Harvard was an eye-opening experience because there's so much diversity on campus.

I've had so many ups and downs in my career. When it's going good, you learn to enjoy the ride.

I've been a lot of places and worked with a lot of different guys. High draft picks. Low draft picks.

Football is something so ingrained in me, something I love doing and definitely something I want to do.

I would much rather pass up on some of that guaranteed money... and bet on myself and just see what happens.

That's why you play the game. You play the game for your teammates, who really want to play with and for you.

I feel like the luckiest guy in the world sometimes, getting to go outside and play football with my friends.

Football is not a game about numbers. It's about wins and trying to go out and play better than the other team.

Knowing who I am as a player and working on my deficiencies, communication is something I try to pride myself on.

I'm the Harvard guy everywhere, every day. There are worse things to be called, worse things to be known by I guess.

I enjoy playing, especially when you're having success, when you're driving the ball down the field scoring touchdowns.

All I can do is play as hard as I can play, make as many plays as I can make and try to help my team win football games.

I'm getting better as a quarterback. A lot of that is an understanding of the game, of myself, of who I'm playing against.

I don't think the day that I was drafted that I expected to be the starting quarterback for the Rams as a seventh-round pick.

When I got drafted, I just wanted a jersey. Once they gave me the jerseys, like, I was just hoping that they kept me on the team.

I'm not gonna throw a Ryan Leaf bullet, but I've got a good enough arm, where I think it'll turn some heads and keep them interested.

It really all started in Buffalo, when it was cold, I wanted to see if I could grow facial hair and lo and behold it just kept growing.

You never know what's going to happen in the NFL. That's probably the thing I've learned most - expect the unexpected and go from there.

My normal is craziness - moving around and jumping from team to team and having to get used to different guys in a short period of time.

I've been through a lot. I've had so many ups and downs in my career. I think a lot of it is you just have to be the same guy every day.

I just have to continue to prepare and try to be the best guy I can be every Sunday, whether that's coming off a good game or a bad game.

I find the game mentally challenging and really enjoy the chess match that occurs every week between the offense and the opposing defense.

For us as players, revenue sharing, getting a larger percentage of the pie, is important, but also the overall growth of that pie is important.

When you play quarterback and the offense doesn't play well, a lot of that is because of the quarterback. You're going to receive the criticism.

I've had a different career than a lot of different quarterbacks, but this has been a career that I've loved and a position that I like being in.

Just in terms of the demeanor and the approach and just making sure that I'm consistent in the way I do things - that is the biggest thing for me.

I've not had a career like Brady or Rodgers with all the Super Bowls and the incredible things they've done. But for me, the adversity made me who I am.

My wife is also from Harvard and we do have some family in the Cambridge area so we try to make it back at least once a year. We really enjoyed our time out there.

The two things that make you a good head coach in this league are if you can get the players to respect you and if you can come across with a clear, consistent message.
