carry great head last time
Fortunately, it's not the last time I carry the ball. It was a great play by the linebacker. He put his head on the football. That's the one thing you can't let happen.
carry final last mental moment opportunity snapshot
I was thinking, 'If this is my last (Heinz Field) game, this will be my final opportunity to look out of this tunnel. I wanted to have a mental snapshot of the moment so that I could carry it with me forever.
bowl diminish great last opportunity super thinking until wait
That's a great question. I'm going to look at it. The last thing I want to do is diminish anything by even thinking about that. This is a great opportunity we have. I'm going to wait until after the Super Bowl and think about it.
