They're going to be there; it's just a little bit hard logistically. |
They're just as hungry as we are. It's a golden opportunity for us, but don't underestimate the challenge that's in front of us. ... You realize how hard it is to get there, but don't lose sight that the goal is to win a championship. Nobody remembers that you lost a Super Bowl. They remember who won a Super Bowl. |
They're not going to be intimidated by coming to Heinz Field. They're probably going to enjoy coming to Heinz Field. But we're going to enjoy having them here as well. |
They're playing at a high level. They're explosive. ... We certainly have to play better than the last time we played them, and better defensively than how we played today. |
They're young, confident and talented, |
They've got a lot of football players who are trying to build something. I don't think there's any question they're making strides in the right direction. |
This is a good arrangement for us here. This is our little safe haven, not as many distractions, and we had a good practice. |
This is a great group of guys, how we got here, we're a different team. We're a focused team, no matter what's happened, we've stayed together. We've got a resilient group. |
This is a rivalry game. They are a rivalry team, we knew that coming in. |
This is a special group of players, these guys are so deserving - I couldn't be more happy for Mr. Rooney, the players, the coaches and the city. |
This is a special group. This is not about me. It's about this team; it's about this ownership; it's about the players and coaches. I'm one small part of this, believe me. |
This is a supreme team with the same aspirations we do. They're playing with a high level of confidence. It's not going to get done by showing up and we really have not accomplished anything. That's the thing we have to keep in mind because some people will give you kudos, and will talk about all the good things we've done, but that can all change with one play, with one quarter or one bad game. |
This is a team that does not beat itself. |
This is a team that's not used to losing, period, ... Back-to-back [losing] weeks is unheard of for New England. I think that compounds the challenge we have this week. But from our standpoint, it's a good barometer to see where we are. |
This is as light as Casey's been since his rookie year. |
