bowl forty good great might shirt size small super
I think an XL shirt might be a little too small for Jerome, but Super Bowl Forty is a good size for him. It's just a great opportunity.
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.
best coming imagine playing super
When you think about the Super Bowl, you imagine yourself coming and playing your best football, and it wasn't that way.
couple enjoy fun super talked
We talked a couple of times this week. He called me and said, 'Listen, enjoy it and have fun there because you never know if it is going to come back.' He said that he thought he was going to make it back (to the Super Bowl) and he never got to play in it again.
bowl dan enjoy second super trying year
Dan told me he made it to the Super Bowl in his second year in the league, and then never got back. He said to enjoy it and make the most of it, and that's what I am trying to do.
front good job line mixed offensive phenomenal silent
I think we did a good job; give our offensive line a lot of credit. We did all silent count. We went on two, on three, mixed it up. They did a phenomenal job up front of being disciplined.
close decide grabbed leg luckily saw turned
I think I turned him enough times that he got close to me and couldn't decide which way to go. I just saw his leg and grabbed it, and luckily he went down.
compare compared everybody honor obviously people phenomenal player tough trying
People are always trying to compare quarterbacks and that's tough to do because everybody is his own quarterback and own person. Tom's obviously a phenomenal quarterback, player and person, so that's an honor to be compared to him.
crowd people picking
We don't have a crowd with us. We don't have the people picking us, but we have each other. And that's all we need.
goal points score time touched week
Our goal every week is to keep Gardocki off the field. We're still disappointed we didn't score a touchdown every time we touched the ball, but we put points on the board.
knock picked rust sluggish
I think Indianapolis misunderstood me. I wanted to knock the rust off, I didn't want them to. I was sluggish at first, but then we picked it up a little better -- just not as well as we should have.
catch guy red valuable
I think he's going to be a very valuable person, especially when we get in the red zone. You got a guy who's big and strong, he can go up and make a catch when it matters. That's the thing you have to have.
definitely felt game guys last motivates win
It definitely motivates you to play better and not let your guys down, especially guys like Jerome Bettis, who are in this game to win it. You don't want to let him down like I felt I did last year.
affect playoff
It is Carson's first playoff game, but he's a better quarterback than I was. So I don't know how much it will affect him.
