coming complaints-and-complaining expect guy remember
You don't expect that from a guy like that. Obviously, he was a little frustrated. But I don't remember complaining. It's just unfortunate coming from a guy like that.
brought entire exciting game line offensive running willie
Willie has done so much for this team. The new and exciting running game that he has brought has really been awesome. Otherwise, I'd give it to our entire offensive line if I could.
adds bounce changed dimension football given outside people playing seeing willie yards
Willie has been playing great. He adds a different dimension to what people are used to seeing when they think Steelers football. They think hard, grind-it-out football getting two yards at a time. Not that we really have changed that, but Willie kind of adds that dimension that he can bounce it outside and get you 10, 15 or 20 yards on any given run.
ahead change guys loss main means season
We can't change anything, but there's still going to be tomorrow. We're still going to play, and we still have a long season ahead of us. The main thing is that the guys in there are not discouraged. We're disappointed that we didn't get the win, but we know that we still have a long season. All this loss means is that we can't go undefeated.
gets team
When it's do-or-die for us, this team gets down to the nitty-gritty.
balls criticism knocking mph people plays wind winds
People need to realize, and I know they won't, that there was 45 mph winds out there, and it was tough, ... A lot of those plays were not (Tommy's) fault. The wind was knocking the balls down. There was no way he should have got the criticism he did.
danny guys people second super year
Some guys never get to a Super Bowl, and then there are people like Danny Marino who get there in their second year and don't get back.
focused mean trying win
That doesn't mean anything to me. I'm just focused on trying to win the game.
best feet good great matt offense phenomenal seems sure
Matt is a phenomenal quarterback. He's a great leader. He's very good with his feet and he has a great arm. He always seems to know what he's doing, making sure his offense has the best play possible.
arm mind telling throw top
That was one where my mind was telling me to throw it over the top and my arm didn't throw it over the top. I read it right, I just didn't throw it good.

That's the way I want to go out, whenever my time is up.
falling thinking
I was thinking about falling down at the 1 so I could get him another one.
buy coming cut great move saw time trying
I was trying to buy as much time as I could on third-and-long. I saw Hines make a move and cut it to the right side. He made a great play coming back for it.
eternity feels field guys hopefully since stay wait
It feels like an eternity since I've been out there. I can't wait to get out there and get on the field so the guys know I'm back, and hopefully I'm back to stay for a while.
