You try not to think about it in those terms. I mean, I have full confidence I could go out and win a game [with my arm], and those opportunities will present themselves, ... But I'm not going to force it. I just want to stay within the system.

More Chris Simms on Wikipedia.[Chris Simms will control the Bucs' playoff hopes for the rest of the season.] I've been out there a few times, ... I know what I'm doing.
I was scrambling and I hit (tight end) Anthony Becht as he was going out of bounds.
I didn't see Griese even get hit and then I saw him laying on the ground. I tried to warm up as quick as possible.
Sometimes I don't even realize I'm excited.
It's a contract year and there's no hiding that fact, ... I've got 10 games to show what I can do. I want to go out and play great and hopefully keep us on the right path.
