I liked the direction this whole organization is going, and being close to home made it exciting for me. There's a lot of opportunities for young guys here. They didn't guarantee me anything. I'll just work as hard as I can and hopefully the pieces will fall into place.

This is a court of law, not TV. Consider the testimonial evidence.

We have some backs that are good runners, but our offensive line is really coming on. That was one of our questions coming into the season, and we've got some guys that are really stepping up.

It's about par for the course for us. We're doing all right. We have to fill some big holes. There are a lot of question marks.

It was just a case of being in one place too long. We had a dual affiliation with Minnesota and Dallas and we had a lot of talented players. I had more of a defensive role. I played with our fighter for 50 or 60 games. I just tried to make the best of it and work on other aspects of my game.

God's will is your deepest desires.
