“It feels good. We pride ourselves on running the ball.”

“We are the ones who impose our will and everybody feeds off of that and once everybody feeds off of it, that keeps the offense doing.”

“I’m more comfortable, composed in the moment... trusting my ability out there... just being locked in more.”

“You see them boys start running and at any moment they can take it to the house.”

“It’s always that straining mentality. You never know when the play is over.”

“They are going to try to run through somebody.”

“It feels good... the work you put in throughout the week shows up on gameday.”

“We play as a unit. They trust me to do my job and I trust them to do their job.”

“Being able to see that come to fruition is fun to see.”

“You can’t talk about it. You have to go out and show what you can do.”

“It fires you up. It makes you want to block harder honestly. Not a lot of quarterbacks like to run and try to take hits, they might slide before they take it, but when you see him trying to get those extra yards, you want to fight for him more, you want to protect him more... you’ll go to bat for a guy like that. A quarterback who will try to run through somebody’s face, you’re going to fight for him, for real.”

“Everything happens for a reason.  God put him in that place. God took him through what he went through.”

“They have a lot of quick guys up front. If you look at the statistics they are good at pass rush, so being able to hone in on that.”
