Chuck Pagano

When I was a kid growing up, my dad being a football coach, he asked the same question of all the assistants that he ever hired: 'Is your goal to be a head football coach?'

I've got so many things coming across my desk right now that are nonfootball related, I can't stand it.

With expectations, when you throw that stuff out there, when you put a bunch of pressure on yourself to reach those goals, you don't do anything different. You just keep working to get better.

When you have things taken away, you promise you'll never take anything for granted ever again.

I've always just tried to treat people with respect, build relationships with players and coaches... build a trust.

I grew up in a football family, on the sideline. I was a waterboy. It was kinda something I was around my whole life.

My vision is that I'm living to see two more daughters get married, dance at their weddings and then lift the Lombardi Trophy several times.

I've always been a religious person.

You have some dark days and dark moments going through chemo and things like that.

We have to know that nothing is promised, nothing is guaranteed, especially tomorrow.
