game glamorous guys love nuts
You have to be nuts to do what I do. It's not necessarily a glamorous position. You have to really love the game because most guys don't want to play it.
along block far game goes great guy guys knock player trying walt watching weird
We get to see it Mondays. It is weird watching a guy block another player -- a great player -- and knock him backwards. You see as the game goes along that the guys are trying to get as far away from Walt as they can.
biggest clue game magnitude maybe might perennial road super
We have no real clue of the magnitude of this win. Maybe years down the road when the Seahawks are perennial contenders for the Super Bowl, it might not be such a big deal, but right now, this is the biggest game ever in this organization's history.
five freak front game jobs nature nobody players playing quality rest
There is nobody else in the game who does the things Walter does. He's just a freak of nature. But for the rest of us humans, we still get our jobs done. I mean, the quality of the players that we have playing on that front five is just amazing.
averages ball carries game guy maybe yards
I don't know where that comes from. You tell me. The guy carries the ball 25 times a game and averages 100 yards a game. I don't think that's soft. Maybe because he does it with a smile.
couple despite game happened help ourselves whatever won
Despite whatever happened in the game, we still didn't do some things we could have done to help ourselves out. We still could have won that game if we would have just made a couple of plays.
football games people physical reputation seemingly speaks team
This will probably be one of the most physical football games that has ever been. Pittsburgh's reputation speaks for itself, and people seemingly don't know a whole lot about us, but we're a pretty physical team as well.
anyone game line means saturday suggest win
How could anyone even suggest that? This game still means a lot to us. It's not like we're going to line up Saturday and feel like it has no meaning. We want to win this game. We need to win this game.
answered biggest came flying game questions
That's the biggest game that this organization has ever been in and he came through with flying colors. If there were any questions about his toughness, they should have been answered then.
definitely difference eliminated fact gets issues past worry
I think a lot of things that plagued us in the past, where we definitely had some off-the-field issues ... I think the fact that we eliminated a lot of that stuff, and we don't worry about who gets the credit, that's made all the difference in the world.
bobby continue guys hopefully offense philosophy playing proven until wait
Our philosophy on offense is to wait for opportunity. Those guys have proven they can play when they get that opportunity. Eventually, we'll get Darrell and Bobby back. Until then, hopefully those guys can continue playing well.
hear
We are going to play for the NFC Championship; that is not something you hear everyday.
life
Just things that I've never experienced in my life.
everybody fired people town
I think everybody in this town will be fired up. People will be going crazy, it will be pandemonium.
