It got to the point where I was taking chances - and that was a chance I shouldn't have taken.
And we still haven't played good. That's the amazing part. That excites me about the offense, that we're all sort of disappointed with how we've played. We left points out there today.
It was big because it was a free seven points that they got. You feel they didn't deserve it and then we had to answer back, because they were right back in the game at that point.
I think we have a group that gets it more than we have in the past.
I think that gave us a lot of confidence, doing that on the road, at their place, a loud, hostile environment. I think that was a stepping stone for us, maybe a little bit of a confidence-booster for our team.
I think it's something I can deal with because it's my non-throwing shoulder. It feels really stiff right now because I just iced it.
It had to be 90 percent Steelers fans out there.
I think every team I have been on you have a group of guys that are really helping pull the team in the right direction. Then you have a couple guys that are pulling it in a wrong direction. Everybody else is sort of on the fence,
We played really, really well at times, ... It's just that we turned the ball over too many times.
Our focus was on this year and this team. The team in this locker room is better than the one that played last year.
Our fans have been great. That crowd noise, people underestimate it, but it's important and our fans take a lot of pride in that, too. They're a part of this, they're a real part of this thing.
Our fans have been fantastic. They are a part of this thing.
Other than that, I would have to agree. He has been a team guy this year.
Robbie's here, he's earned it, it's a great honor. We joke about it at home, but he's got to be the leader of the offensive line out here.
