If you win this game you can party like a rock star for the next six months. To sacrifice one week to get the big prize is easy. Everyone understands that. |
In the past, I've seen this crowd turn on him. I knew he was just a bad play away before they were turning on him. If we forced him into making some bad plays, he was going to get down on himself. That was the whole game plan and it ended up working. |
In time, I'll be 100 percent, ... You have to run on it to play. You can't sit back and nurse it. When I come back, I don't want to be timid. I'm just going ahead and practicing hard now like I would in a game, and I let it fall where it was going to fall. |
In your hearts of hearts, you really want to stay, |
It doesn't matter ? they counted us out about six weeks ago. Don't change now. Everybody was against us, so let's keep it that way, it keeps a chip on our shoulder. It makes us play like we know how. |
It feels so much better to do something people say you can't do. There's no better feeling than that. We will always be remembered for the way we did it. |
It really doesn't matter to me. The game is over. |
It was good to hear it, I needed that. He spoke out of turn right there. |
It was Jerome (Bettis) day today. |
It was ugly. But we'll take it. |
It wasn't a matter of if he was gonna make it; we knew he was gonna make it. He did what he always does: He came through. |
It wasn't one of our better games on defense. We had a lot of mistakes and breakdowns. |
It's all about pressure. We really got after (Plummer). I felt like I could beat their tackles off the end and was able to keep containment. |
It's different when you're playing at home. The pressure is on you because you're expected to win. When we come in this way, we've been counted out since we went to Cincinnati. We weren't supposed to be here, and that enabled us to go out and play loose. That's what we did, and we played our best football three weeks in a row. |
It's hard to harp on a situation that's over with. It's tough enough for him to lose. I'm not going to dog him in the paper. |
