No doubt, we have to get No. 37 back. Whatever we have to do, (we have) to find a way to get him back and healthy in the lineup and ready to play next week. |
No matter who Walt is playing, it really looks like he is a man playing with little kids. It doesn't matter if a guy is a Pro Bowler. Walt just has superior strength, size and athletic ability. He is a freak of nature. |
Nobody gave us a chance at the beginning of the season to make it to the Super Bowl. Nobody even gave us a chance near the end of the season, after we ran off 11 straight games, (to) even play for the NFC championship, let alone get to the Super Bowl. I feel like that's a sentiment we've had to overcome all year. Each time we've overcome that challenge, and I feel like we'll do the same this time. |
Our philosophy on offense is to wait for opportunity. Those guys have proven they can play when they get that opportunity. Eventually, we'll get Darrell and Bobby back. Until then, hopefully those guys can continue playing well. |
Shaun had a big game. When he gets into the red zone, he's deadly. But I don't think a lot of teams around the league know about Maurice Morris, and he's an exceptional back himself. |
That's OK. I've been blessed. The chips have fallen my way. |
That's the biggest game that this organization has ever been in and he came through with flying colors. If there were any questions about his toughness, they should have been answered then. |
That's what you expect Shaun to do. That's why he's the MVP. |
The kind of season he's having, with what he's doing this year, he's going to enjoy what is going to get dumped in his lap. |
The thing that we try and not worry about here is forcing things. We know it's going to work eventually. That's when Shaun does what he does best — find the hole, find the end zone. |
The thing that's really special about it is that everybody in this locker room is really grounded about the task that we have ahead of us in playing the Steelers. It's not hard to be engaged and be focused on what we've got to get done. |
The winning makes it a lot more fun. I've been through some lean seasons. Winning makes it a lot easier. You can see it in practice. |
There have been a lot of tough years, a lot of challenging times and obstacles to overcome. But we're here. |
There is nobody else in the game who does the things Walter does. He's just a freak of nature. But for the rest of us humans, we still get our jobs done. I mean, the quality of the players that we have playing on that front five is just amazing. |
There's no question, we've got to win the game. We'll be throwing everything we have, all of our weapons, all of our energy, all of our focus, all of our concentration. It's not just because it's been so long since we've won a playoff game. But it's more that if we lose, we're done, and we have higher goals than that. |
