I always talk about how I feel I can be a better quarterback, but just because I feel like I'm more experienced and better doesn't mean I'm going to play better. You'd like to think so. But with Carson as their quarterback, and as good as he is, I don't think their lack of experience will hurt them too much. |
I asked him how to deal with it all, and he gave me some words of wisdom. He told me to enjoy it, but to take it serious enough, because you want to win it since it could be your only time getting here. |
I don't have any wood to knock on here, ... Now, you can't be talking about those things. We're going to go out and try to play smart football and, hopefully, keep the ball out of their hands. |
I don't think anybody is picking us to win. Obviously, they're the best football team in the NFL and we're just the Pittsburgh Steelers. We're going to go in and obviously try to find a way to just put a few points on the board and compete. |

I don't think we're there yet. But we got the win today. That's what's most important. It wasn't a perfect game. But it was a win. |
I don't want to start getting teary-eyed. We don't want a bunch of guys crying coming out of the locker-room. |
I feel a lot more comfortable out there than I did last year. But I still have a lot to learn. |
I feel a lot more comfortable this time around and a lot more rested. I'm not quite as overwhelmed as I was the first time I was in the situation last year. |
I feel that I'm not losing the game for our team. I'm trying to give us the best opportunity to win the football game. I did everything I could to lose the Jets game but we won. And the Patriots game, I didn't play well. I think that this year, I just come out and play smart football. I got some good advice the other day (from CBS Sports' Dan Dierdorf): Every drive that ends in a kick is a good drive. |
I felt happy I could keep my promise to get (Bettis) back home to Detroit. |
I felt I should have been the quarterback. But what could I do? |
I felt really comfortable out there. A lot of that has to do with the offensive line. They gave me a lot of time. I didn't get touched too much today. |
I get that a lot. There's kind of a theme that people are happy to see me but disappointed that we beat Cincinnati. I'm used to it. I have a lot of friends around here who are Cincinnati fans. |
