This is a storybook for him. That is all I can really say. This is a storybook for him.
building cement coach football last mentioned played week
Coach Cowher mentioned last week that we're still building our identity. I think we've put the cement down and we've got some two-by-fours up, but we've still got a long way to go. We've only played two football games, there's still a lot of football to be played.

As a team, We're not really thinking about the streak. We aren't focused right now on the big picture.
becomes call figure fly knows loose maniac time turn whatever
That's how he is. When he's out on the field, he becomes a madman. I figure that's when he knows it's time to turn it loose -- let out my hair, comb it out, let it be under my helmet, let me fly around like a maniac and get sacks and interceptions and whatever they call me to do.
That's what it was. That's all I can really say. It is storybook for him.
basically doctor expected faster healed last latter people practice released spoke surgery trying
I healed up well. They say some people heal faster than expected sometimes. I spoke with the doctor in Philadelphia who did the surgery and he said, 'Do what you can.' He basically released me to go and practice and do what I can out on the field, as long as I'm pain-free. And it's been pain-free this whole week, and the latter part of last week. So, I'm just trying to heal up and get better every day, day in and day out.

If I'm the head coach and I'm down on the goal line, a thousand times out of a thousand I'd run the same play and give him the ball.
ball came edge emotional everybody front game home job passed ran resolve settled
Everybody came up with the resolve -- no more of this. We come out here in front of our home crowd, it's the first game of the season, and they just ran the ball and passed the ball down our throats. They executed way better than us. Once we got that emotional edge off, just being over-amped for the game, we settled down. We did our job and did what he had to do.
