I'm able to see things and react certain ways, I try to slither through there and try to make a play.
I'm just trying to affect the game in some way whenever I get an opportunity. If that's stealing a base, making a catch, beating out a double play, whatever it may be.
You know, pass now to pinch post, cut, shoot the shot. Do things to facilitate the offense. That's what I did in Alabama.
It takes courage to pull the ball down and reverse field and do some of the crazy things that Favre and Manziel do. There's going to be consequences when sometimes it doesn't work out. But it takes a tremendous amount of guts and courage to go make a play when there's nothing there instead of throwing the ball away.
That's how I judge a quarterback: Either you make plays or you don't. I don't even want to talk about mechanics.
It's the same thing I have been doing since I was 5, playing the game of football. Going out there when my number is called and trying to make plays.
In a lot of close games, I can make a difference with my speed.
My philosophy was simple. I was trying to score when I got the football in my hand. There was no question about that.
I've always been a guy that's just prided myself on making plays.
I just try to play as hard as I can every possession. If you're aware and you're high-energy, the ball will eventually bounce your way and you'll be able to make plays.
It's a group of guys that put their mind to going out and playing great football. Everybody that needed to step up, stepped up. Everybody that needed to make a play, made a play and that's what it's all about.
I've been playing football forever, and I've been making plays forever.
You're going to either make plays or you're not.
It ain't just one guy, it's a team game, and I'll get myself better, I'll keep working on my technique and trying to find ways to free myself and keep making plays.
You don't want to be the selfish point guard. You want to be the guy that gets everybody open, that makes plays, and see the ball move before it goes in.
I just always had a knack for handling and passing the rock and making things happen.
You want to go out there and do what's best for the team, help your team move the ball down the field, make plays, help them win football games.
Every time I step on the field, I step on the field to make plays.
When handling the ball, I always would look for daylight, wherever there was daylight.
There's a lot to it, but the bottom line as a receiver is to run the right route, get open and make plays.
When it's late in a game and things are tough and you need a basket, someone has to step up. That player has to have the ability to create opportunities and draw fouls.
It's a conscious effort for me to be aggressive and take what the defense gives you.
The players have got to make the plays.
We have to be able to execute early in games, whether it's a block, whether it's a throw, whether it's a catch, we have to be able to make plays.
