I'm drained a little bit and I've been really up and down emotionally. It's not just my family, but all my friends and their families. They're homeless. We have to try to help them figure out what to do next. The have to start over. I need to rest my mind.

We just have to be, not just a little bit, but a lot better in the passing game than we've done in the past. It's going to get to the point where we're going to have to be a lot better.

People don't have jobs, clothes on their back. People have lost everything, but I think guys can afford to donate $5,000. There's a lot of guys that make a lot of money.

My grandmother didn't want to come to Atlanta; she wanted to stay home, ... I said, 'If anything happens, call me.' Everything has been OK so far. I have family in New Orleans. I hadn't talked to them. Some of the people I know went to Mississippi. Some went to Texas.
