football game last needs plays result supposed win year
I think he understands he doesn't have to win the game. I think last year he'd be the first one to tell you he was of the thought I have to win the football game. He just needs to make the plays he's supposed to make, and we'll win the football game as a result of that.

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.
feels game great incredible knew last stop team win
It feels incredible -- my team put me on their backs, and I knew they wouldn't let me down. This has been a great ride, and I've always said that you play this game to win championships, and now that I've got that championship ... I think this is the last stop for 'The Bus.'?
carry hard last walk
Yeah, who knows? It would have been hard to walk away from a last carry like that.

We don't have to be as good as we were last year, ... It doesn't matter if we're 15-1 again - if we're 10-6 but we win the Super Bowl, that's a better season.

Whenever you go into a situation where it could be your last play, there's a sense of desperation. I definitely feel it, and I try to encourage my teammates and lead by example. It doesn't matter how we do it, all that matters is we get it done.

From last year to this year, he's a different quarterback. He's definitely our leader.

From last year to this year, he's a different quarterback. He has an understanding of what he needs to do to manage the football team. The plays he makes with his feet and throwing the ball is amazing.

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.

I?m a realist in a sense that I do understand there is a good chance it is my last game.

I was impressed a little last year and I was really impressed in Week 1 of how well he was running inside. From that aspect, yeah, I knew he was capable of it, but to see him really, really pound it in there was fun to see.

Of course, it crossed my mind. But that thought was short-lived. Fortunately, it's not (my last play).

The one thing is that, on the road, we've been really, really good the last couple of years. It's something we can take as a positive.

They put me on their backs and made sure they wouldn't let me down. I played this game to win a championship. I'm a champion, and I think the last stop is here.
