Defense was dominant. Offense was consistent. Nothing crazy, just sound football. Moving the ball, finishing in the red zone. That’s our formula for success.”

“We had a little stretch there where we were down in the dumps. Outside people were like, ‘Oh, pack it in and go into the draft. Look for next year.’ Nah. We never looked at it like that. We know our time was coming. Other teams in the NFC South were losing as well. So we knew we always had a leg to keep coming back and fighting each and every week. We just put some guys in place, some tools in there, and we got rolling.”

“We all need a reality check in our lives. Not saying we all haven’t, but it’s just a refresher moment when you have something happen to you.

Being the best person, player, son. Being the best I can possibly, and hopefully someday being the best quarterback I can be.”
