I (will) let it get me down because I care,
You can`t come out against the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots and make that many penalties, ... They won`t beat themselves. Granted, they lost two coordinators, but they haven`t changed.
I don`t think the guy should be looked at as an outcast or be looked at in a negative way because of some personal things that might have happened,
One magazine had me finishing with 975 yards,
That`s one thing I`m not used to coming from New York. I got news for the rest of the league. That team (the Patriots) is not changing. If the league thinks that team is changing because it lost two coordinators, it isn`t. They minimize mistakes. That`s something we`ve got to do.
It`s a role I`ve been waiting for four years.
`I`m not going to judge a guy based on how he`s portrayed in the media. I`m going to judge this man based on him.` And Randy ... he`s been phenomenal.
I think the media has done a good job portraying him being a bad person, when in reality he`s not.
For me to be a starting running back in the NFL and somebody says that I could play 16 games, but I won`t get 1,000 yards, for me I look at it as a slap in the face. That`s one of those slaps where I say, `OK, you can slap me once. But at the end of the season, I want to make sure I`m hitting you back with a powerful punch.`
I was so concerned with trying to make the big run that I didn`t nitpick to get the three or four yards. That`s something I have to work on.
