I really didn't have much of a reaction when I heard I won the MVP award. I am really just so focused on the upcoming season that last year is just an after-thought. I really don't like to think about last year because we didn't make the playoffs. To me, at least, it was a disappointing season and I am very excited about the upcoming season and getting ready for Buffalo.
Twenty years form now when I am looking at my shelf and I see two Dan Marino MVP awards it will mean something to me, but last year is in the past and I am ready for next season. I've won so many awards, I guess I am used to it and numb to them, I just want to win. We had a really good team last year and I believed we had an opportunity to go to the playoffs. I am excited about what the front office has done and I am looking forward to this season being really special.
The last time I won this award was such a long time ago. I am a different person than I was when I won this award in 2002. That was another lifetime. The trophy from 2002 is in my office. It is a nice trophy so I put it up high on the shelf. The Heisman has it's own section in the house.
