I try to be a smart quarterback. I'm not the fastest or the best athlete, but if I can know what the defense is doing and stick to my job and what needs to be done I can make the plays needed to move the ball and score.

As a quarterback, you try to manage the game. It's not just throwing the ball. You have to manage the running game and getting out of bad situations and there are a lot of things to it. That's what I'm trying to do.

For the most part, if I’m being compared to Peyton, I consider that a compliment. He’s at the top of his game, and I’m not anywhere near his level right now. But that’s the goal, to play at a high level, and he’s the guy playing at the highest in the league.

I’m not trying to be like Peyton; I’m trying to do it the way I know how.

My favorite football memory isn't beating Florida or winning the bowl game ... My favorite memories are of playing football with my brothers and my dad in the front yard when I was younger.
