Personally, I think ‘Dead Americans’ is the best title I have, but you can’t win with everyone.

It’s an offensive league. All the rules cater to the offense.

It’s one of those things: we’ve got guys that are very offensive and can take down anyone, and we’ve got guys that don’t shoot at all but are very hard to take down. It’s one of those things. You’ve got to decide what you’re good at.
I find pop art really offensive because it’s taking a piece of popular culture and putting it somewhere where people can’t see it.
As an offensive lineman, having spatial awareness is key: understanding where the quarterback is going to be and understanding what the defensive end might do depending on the play we’re running.
The Hit Stick is a tremendous invention. It really gave you control as a defensive player because most of the time, ‘Madden’ is such an offensive game. But the Hit Stick really gave you the opportunity to shine on defense for the first time.
One of my roles is rebounding the ball and not giving up offensive boards, and I feel like I can be one of the best in the league at that.

We are in a diversity age. I talk about the lack of diversity for black Americans, but what about the Asian Americans? You don’t see them very often.

I used to send Tony Romo texts throughout the season just to encourage him, just to wish him luck and just to tell him to get on his offensive line. I hated watching this young man get sacked as much as he did, especially when it came down to big games.

Obviously, like anything else, I have views on how we should play defense but I don’t call the defensive plays. I have views on how I want us to run our offense but I don’t call our offensive plays. It’s in collaboration with Phil Snow, with Joe Brady, with all of our coaches.
