Obviously my dad served in the Korean War. He was a Master Sergeant when he was 18 years old.

I just loved the kind of people who play football. Definitely takes courage to play this game.

I think when you take a job, you assume you can win regardless of what they have or don't have.

The one thing I always knew was Dad would always be there for me. No matter what the situation.

We will not build our offensive game plans around our punter... We hope we don’t major in punting.

I feel I am a players' coach. The only thing that means is I care about my players more than anything.

I supported Donald Trump, I sat back when he asked me to introduce him at a rally in Buffalo, I did that.

I know it’s been 15 years since the Bills made the playoffs. Well get ready, man, we’re going. We are going.

I have sets, literally, of almost every single year of Strat-O-Matic baseball. That's how huge I was into it.

I know I put forth an effort to try to build a championship team and to be a champion. And it hasn't worked out.

If a guy makes a mistake or drops a ball or does whatever, yeah it makes me mad, but I don't get on that person.

I have no problem at all if somebody disagrees with me on my politics, or on this, that or whatever. That's fine.

I'm really high on Josh Allen. He reminds me of Ben Roethlisberger. He's got the big arm. He's a very good athlete.

I understand being second-guessed and stuff when an injury happens - certainly I understand that - but that's football.

I don't think there's any doubt, I love my kids. But I'm certainly not perfect, not even close. But I try to be a good dad.

Just because somebody cusses doesn't make him a bad person. Just because a guy doesn't cuss doesn't make him a good person.

For the weaknesses I have with spelling and all those other things with being dyslexic, I have a lot of other strengths also.

There's nothing that special about me. I'm just a hard-working guy, I'm dyslexic, I had to overcome a lot of things like that.

Jamal Adams has got The Jet Way. Everybody needs to get on board with that kid and follow him, even if it means more than the coach.

I've been a big admirer of Tony Dungy, and I'm sure a lot of people are, but he unfairly judged me, and that was disappointing to me.

Jack Del Rio and myself are very similar except he's really good looking and was a great player. Other than that, we're very similar.

I mean, as a coach, as a leader of an organization, you represent your fan base and everybody that works and all that, and that's passion.

I'm a football fan first and foremost, but I've been given an incredible opportunity to be a football coach in the National Football League.

So many times, I notice nobody will say a bad word about a team or situation because they're worried about their next job. I'm not worried about that.

Maybe I wasn't just the traditional-type person or whatever. I got to the top, but I got there maybe unconventionally. It wasn't just a straight line.

I'm passionate about the game - just like the fans are, and I've coached in the league for a long time, so that's the perspective I will bring to ESPN.

I was fortunate to be under my dad. And there's a ton of things that I learned from my dad what to do. There's probably a few things I learned what not to do.

I miss the preparation for game week and all the things. I miss the draft and getting prepared for that. I grew up in this business, that's all I've ever known.

Everybody in the league has someone up in the box, or guys on the sidelines trying to steal calls. It's just like baseball. If you've got guys who can do, you do it.

I don't know this Channing Crowder. All I know is that he's all tatted up, so I guess I ought to be nervous about him. If I was younger, I'd probably handle him myself.

We have won five Super Bowls as a family, but we want to win our sixth at some point. And I want to win it as a head coach, because that has never been done in our family.

Our dad is recognized as being one of the great defensive coaches, probably arguably the best, in the history of the game. You can't say he's not in the top five, certainly.

Belichick, I recognize the fact this is a Hall of Fame coach. He'll go down in history as maybe the greatest football coach in the history of this game, or going to be close to it.

I'm not a one-hit wonder. When you look at my background, I think I've been successful at all stops along the way. I know the kind of responsibility it takes to be a head football coach.

This is the business of football and nothing is guaranteed to you as a player, coach or anybody else. They don't have to give you the money. They don't have to give you a longterm contract.

We're going to start with the injury report, obviously. Manning, Clark, Addai, Reggie Wayne, Freeney, Mathis, Brackett - all those guys will not play. Oh, hold up. That was my wish list for Santa Claus.

I never realized how similar that I am to Tom Brady. mean, the obvious physical appearance would be the first thing. The fact that he's married to a supermodel? Hello? Yeah, I'm also married to a supermodel.

Right away I'm associated with what Donald Trump stands for and all that because I introduced him. I never signed up for that, I never wanted that. That doesn't mean I support 100 percent of the things he says.

I love that mentality: 'Hey - you know what? - you may beat us, but by God we're going to beat the hell out of you.' I'd rather go down that way, with people that will go down swinging than, 'OK, let's accept losing.'

I think the '06 Ravens, if we woulda won a championship, would have been considered maybe the best of all time, because statistically, I think that defense led the NFL in more categories than any other defense in history.

When Dad looked at football players, he would take them in his own image. That's what he grew up around; that's what he was when he was a master sergeant in the Korean War. That's what I took, and that's what I want on my football team.

I think my admiration is really for Belichick more than anything. As a coach, that's the guy. He'll go down as probably the best in the history of the game. I like poking fun at him and all that stuff, but there's no coach I respect more than him.

Coming here to the New York Jets, where my father once coached and was part of the Super Bowl III staff, is fantastic. I look around at the facilities and the people they have in place and see a first-class organization. I'm just proud to be part of it.

The neighbor's kid was bullying my kid. Crossing the line. Threatening him all the time. I went over there to tell him what was going on. I had on flip-flops. I wasn't there to fight. It was a misunderstanding between a couple of dudes where one thing led to another.

I think we have to find somebody out there to beat New England besides us, and I think that would help. Anybody out there that wants to sign up for it? Are you good enough as a team to beat the New England Patriots? Forget about us, are you good enough to go out and beat the New England Patriots? I'm challenging the league.
