I'm used to being the underdog.

You've got to be careful of guys trying to chop-block you. You know, running backs, the receivers. You've got to just hope that your knees are fine and you can avoid those chop blocks.

I believe, especially now, defensive end is a premium position. It's rare to find someone that is a true defensive end that could actually get after the quarterback and make plays. I believe defensive end is rated right below quarterback.

I came from behind. I'm an underdog, basically. There's kind of a chip on my shoulder.

I just do what I do. I'm just out there and come off the ball - it's second nature. I wanted to play running back, but I guess I was a little too big for that.

I really have to face the fact that I'm leaving a great family here. I'm going to be in the real world now.

I really found out last night. During the day yesterday, I got a call from my agent and he was just like, you know, we need to talk. He finally told me, you're going to be the guy. It came down to the wire but I'm just glad it paid off and I'm so glad to be a Texan.

I had a lot of kids breaking a sweat! Everybody was having a good time and there was a lot of excitement.

I'm 300 pounds. If I fall on anybody, it's going to hurt.

It was phenomenal. At 2-4, people were writing us off. They were giving up hope. But to come out like this and to shut them out, it's a great feeling.
