Truth be told, we have a great challenge this week going down to Baltimore, division champs, 14-2, MVP of the league. My sole focus is on how we can bring a team to Baltimore and find a way to win. Really, everything else is kind of the periphery for me."
On DE Myles Garrett as a person and player:
"Very impressed by Myles the person. Very impressed by Myles the player. It takes about two seconds to see him get in his stance and come off the ball to come away very impressed. I have had some really good conversations with Myles over the last few months. I just think he is a mindful person, I think he has a lot of very strong opinions and he comes at it from a place of he is open. I think we have just had some really cool talks. He is a mindful guy. The team really responds to him because he is a great player, but he also wants this so bad and I think the team really responds to that."
