If he feels he can help the team win, Curtis Martin is going to play. He's never going to put the team in jeopardy. That's always been the deal. That's always been our history. He's a unique guy. There was one week where he didn't practice all week and on Saturday I finally asked him, 'What do you think' And he said, 'I'm good. I'm playing.' And he played well. He's a different guy. Special. He really is.

If you watch his career, he has been a guy that has played in a lot of big games. He kicked a lot of tough kicks in pressure situations. He's an outdoor guy. The weather doesn't bother him. If he continues to do what he did in college, you're talking about a guy that can be here for 10 years-plus.
