I would have been successful in the modern NFL because of my game planning strategy
I think I have success, period. Just that's more confidence in myself and my teammates. ... I have some tactics, some strategies. ... First half maintain, and then the second half, go the fuck off.

And then when Coach called it again and when it started to happen, when it matters [I'd go off].

View episodeCBS ruined Selection Sunday by using alphabetical order for the bracket reveal
The Selection Sunday show was fucking terrible. They had alphabetical order, which was so stupid. We basically sat there like, what's going on? And then three or four times said, wait, is that team in or out? Because you just keep missing teams and there's no bracket. Then they make you wait for the bracket. Then there's technical difficulties. Fuck everything. They ruined one of the best things in sports.

College athletes should get paid because they put their bodies on the line to raise money for universities
Yes, they should get paid. I mean, they're putting their body on the line. They're doing all of the above and raising money and putting money in your pocket. I mean, you should do something, especially for the guys that get hurt.
My NFL career would have been much different with a coach other than Jeff Fisher
Definitely, definitely [it would have gone differently with a different coach]. I don't put nothing on Coach Fish. He had a little bit of something to do with it. But, I mean, I always put myself and blame myself.
