To live in the past is to die in the present.

Bill Belichick

I think we all know that quarterbacks, kickers, specialists have certain preferences on footballs. They know a lot more about it than I do. They’re a lot more sensitive to it than I am.

It’s the business that you guys are in too. We try to get as much information as we can and make the best decisions that we can for the football team.

My overall knowledge of football specifications, the overall process that happens on game day with the footballs is very limited.
