continue couple expect hard last playing season week weeks
We've been playing the last couple weeks like it's a one-game season for us and we have to continue to do that. This week is no different. We expect them to come in and play very hard and we have to have our 'A' game.
balanced coming couple last prove season stops throw throwing won
Everyone always said coming into the end of the season that if we had to throw the ball, if someone stops the run, then we won't be able to win. But in the last couple games, we have won by throwing the ball. We can prove that we are a balanced offense.
balanced couple last offense people proven remain sure throw took win
A lot of people said that if we have to throw the ball, we can't win the game. Myself, the line, we took offense of that. The last couple weeks, we've proven that's not the case. We have to keep going and make sure we remain a balanced offense like we have been doing.
couple hard improve plays
There wasn't much to it. A couple of plays and it was pretty much over with. There are a lot of things we need to improve on, but it's hard to tell when you're only out there so long.
couple enjoy fun super talked
We talked a couple of times this week. He called me and said, 'Listen, enjoy it and have fun there because you never know if it is going to come back.' He said that he thought he was going to make it back (to the Super Bowl) and he never got to play in it again.
balanced couple last offense proven stops throw win won
At the end of the season, everyone said if we had to throw and someone stops the run, we won't be able to win because we can't throw the ball. The last couple of games, we've won by throwing. When you put it on our shoulders, we've proven we're a balanced offense and we can throw.
against ball bears defense pittsburgh run saw supposed
We saw something in the Bears defense that made us think we could run the ball against them. We wanted to get back to what the Pittsburgh Steelers are supposed to do.
cannot change obviously tough
It was tough because obviously we did not win, but we cannot change that,
absolutely awesome family teammates win
It was absolutely awesome to come up here and win one for Jerome. To win for the Rooney family and for our teammates and all our fans.
ball credit seem
They are an opportunistic team. They make a lot of plays, they always seem to be around the ball. The ball bounces their way a lot, and that is a credit to them.
game running strength
The running game is the strength of our offense,
defense fun mistakes played playing watching
Our defense is all over the place, and it's so much fun watching them play. Offensively, we haven't played mistake-free football, but we've been playing well and we're going to have to keep doing that if we want to go to where we want to go.
games happens row starts thinking three week win
We like to think so. But we're not going to say we can go three games in a row because we want to go one game in a row. It starts this week at home. Nothing happens if we don't win this game (against Detroit). We're not thinking about anything else.
dream guys thank true
Thank you guys so much. This has been a dream come true for all of us.
