A Quote by Eric Reid

I trust my ability to play in any defense. — © Eric Reid
I trust my ability to play in any defense.
My mental approach is totally different. My coach predicated everything on defense. He always talked about defense, defense, defense. I took it to heart that if you play defense, you can take the heart from an offensive player.
As a middle-order batsman, a lot of times you have to trust your ability to play those big shots under pressure. It is also important to trust your partner at that time.
Defense not only wins games; it's what gets you on the floor at every level you play at. Once you get to high school and get to college, if you don't play defense, you won't play.
The only reason TNA hired me was because they had no choice. Dixie Carter wanted Hulk Hogan - that was obvious - but Hulk Hogan didn't trust anybody in TNA. When I say trust, I don't mean to be devious or malicious or anything like that, but he didn't trust their judgment or their ability, nor did he trust Vince Russo in any way, shape, or form.
We have to get better at that. All of the Stanley Cup winning teams throughout the past few seasons, when they needed to play defense, they did it. If you can play defense, that's when you know it's game over.
The situation is clear. I trust in my ability, I trust in what I do and, if people put their trust in me, I will deliver for them.
As the name of the agency suggests, 'Department of Defense,' the defense refers to the United States of America - not the defense of South Korea, not the defense of Ukraine, not the defense of Syria or Germany.
You have more control of things if you play defense. And you can control how you play defense, too, with effort and preparation.
A lot of people say you can't make the league if you can't play defense, so I really play really good defense. That's something I really pride myself on.
I'd define it as self-awareness: an ability to trust your own judgment. An ability to see through veils of bullshit or spins on stories or propaganda. Maybe an ability to think for yourself.
If we play defense the way we're supposed to and we play defense the way we do here in practice, we should have no problems against most of the teams in the league, and other teams, it'll be a great fight.
...you can't play any defense if the other team is on the foul line.
If you want team play, you must stress defense. Defense makes players unselfish.
It takes brains. It's not like a forward, where you can get away with scoring and not play defense. On defense you have to be thinking.
It's not always fun. It burns inside to play defense. But you have to keep working and eventually defense is something you get used to.
I continually improve my game by discussing hands with other intelligent players. Learning from your mistakes and immersing yourself in the study of the game is huge. My strengths: the ability to play any style, relentless aggression, and the ability to not tilt.
