• On playing at TCF Bank Stadium again: "It's more exciting than anything just to come back home to campus. I don't get back too often, so it'll be nice to see some familiar faces, talking to the football coaching staff, friends, family and everyone coming to the game.

• On his wife, country music singer Jessie James, saying he's "depressed" this year: "She's overdramatizing it a little. It's been difficult, no question, when you're a competitor and having two years prior of winning a lot of games and making the playoffs, it definitely is a hard adjustment."

COACH SPEAK REX RYAN

• The 51-year-old Ryan is in his sixth season as the Jets head coach. He's 42-39 during the regular season and 4-2 in the playoffs.

•  On the difficult season: "The biggest thing has been losing, that's been the hardest part. … We're not accustomed to this kind of season, obviously."

•  On the quarterback carousel: "[Smith] has been our starting quarterback since his first game as a rookie. He struggled, threw three picks, in the first quarter against Buffalo. I just thought let's give him a chance to see the game from a different perspective with a veteran quarterback. [Now] he has another opportunity, and we'll see how much he's learned from it."

• On wide receiver Percy Harvin, acquired from Seattle: "I guess the reputation wasn't as good. Here, he's been absolutely terrific to be around."
