Willie's starting again next week. He's our starter. I've got to keep other guys involved and I'll attempt to do that, but Willie Parker's going nowhere. |
With some of these [injuries], you can continue to play, but the risk you have is long-term. You could create a bone bruise, which becomes more of a four-to-six week injury. I feel good about the fact that we did what we did and took a positive approach to it. |
With the bye week, we probably lost a little bit of that momentum. We were in one of those zones -- 'Just tell us where we're going next. Just send us off to another team.' I think these guys thrive on this. With all due respect to Heinz Field, we just kept going off. They said, 'You're the home team for the Super Bowl.' No, we're not. |
With the situation we have at running back, we don't have to rush to get him back, |
Would I have liked to see us be more in sync in the passing game? Yes, ... And that's the one thing I come out of the preseason saying: 'I wish we would have done better.' But we are where we are. That's really the only true element I'm concerned or worried about. |

Yeah, I know he discovered the West Indies; it wasn't America. But the whole thing with Columbus was that people had been telling him, 'Don't go. The world's flat.' But he kept going. He found land. |
Yeah, we went into the gym to save their legs, and James hurt his knee, ... But I think he'll be back out here tomorrow. |
You can only talk to so many guys. Athletic ability is certainly a part of it, but it's not everything. These kids are still maturing as people. You can never lose sight of that. |
You can sit there and project. But the problem thing you can't project is people jumping up when they see a player they want and they jump right in front of you. That's why sometimes you do trade, because of wanting to get a player before somebody else can. |
You can take away the run, if you want to, but then if you do that, Peyton will throw for 300 or 400 yards. |
You don't notice him much if you don't watch a lot of film. But the coaches see it all the time. He's really smart, he's really sound and, at any time, he's going to come up with a play to beat you. |
You don't see us running a lot of different plays with Willie. They're the same plays, they just may unfold differently. |
