Bill Belichick

I can honestly say that I never 'enjoyed' our meetings, but the respect I have for Peyton Manning as a competitor was, and will likely remain, second to none.

Whatever success I've had it is because I've tried to understand the situation of the player. I think the coach's duty is to avoid complicating matters.

What we can control is our performance and our execution, and that's what we're going to focus on.

It's not all about talent. It's about dependability, consistency, and being able to improve. If you work hard and you're coachable, and you understand what you need to do, you can improve.

Talent sets the floor, character sets the ceiling

I think your team evolves every year. The more you know about it, the better you can coach it.

We don't talk about next year. We talk about today, and we talk about the next game. And that's all we can really control. The rest of it will take care of itself.

The less versatile you are, the better you have to be at what you do well.

I like what I am doing. I enjoy all parts of the game - the team building, training camp, game days, the excitement of Sunday... it beats working.

Mental Toughness is doing the right thing for the team when it's not the best thing for you.
