against detroit home lost road situation three wherever win
We were put in that situation when we lost those three games. We have to come back and win at home against Detroit and go on the road wherever we need to go.
adverse allowing composure crossed emotional fine half happened last level line lose lost move second settled
There's a fine line between going in there and being emotional and allowing it to have an adverse effect, which I think happened to us last week. We settled down more in the second half of that game, but we lost our composure at times. I don't want us to lose our emotion, but we can't lose our composure. There's a fine line and at times we kind of crossed that, but we have to play with that same emotion, that same level of desperation or else we are not going to move on.
couple fill history key lost opportunity players realize
We have a lot of players back; we lost a couple of key players and we'll have to fill those voids. But when you realize what you accomplished and you're part of history and you have an opportunity to do it back to back, it would be an unbelievable feat.
coming few games losing lost next remember
I don't remember losing too many games coming off the bye. Of course, we've lost that next game a few times.
bit due guys home kept lost respect send super team thrive zones
With the bye week, we probably lost a little bit of that momentum. We were in one of those zones -- 'Just tell us where we're going next. Just send us off to another team.' I think these guys thrive on this. With all due respect to Heinz Field, we just kept going off. They said, 'You're the home team for the Super Bowl.' No, we're not.
ahead challenge chip lost test
We've got a big test ahead of us with this team, ... They lost and they're going to come in with a big chip on their shoulder. It's going to be a big challenge for us.
lost remembers super win
We need to go and win one more game. No one ever remembers who lost the Super Bowl.
bring business everybody free happens hard including lost people replace
We know in this business it's hard to bring everybody back. They (potential lost free agents, including Randle El) will be hard people to replace but that happens every year.
challenge front goal golden hard hungry lose lost nobody opportunity realize remembers sight super win won
They're just as hungry as we are. It's a golden opportunity for us, but don't underestimate the challenge that's in front of us. ... You realize how hard it is to get there, but don't lose sight that the goal is to win a championship. Nobody remembers that you lost a Super Bowl. They remember who won a Super Bowl.
given lost playoff road seven straight three week wins won
I think we lost a little from the week off. We had won seven straight and those three road playoff wins had given us momentum. I think we lost a little of our sharpness.
lost remember super teams won
They'll never remember the teams that lost the Super Bowl. But they'll remember who won it.
days game late lost remember
If you go in as late as we're going in, I don't think it will have as big effect. When we had to go in two days before, as we did in Albuquerque, we lost the game -- the fumble, if you remember the fumble drive.
continue desperate giving people seven somewhat team weeks
We've been somewhat of a desperate team for a long time. I think we need to continue to play that way. Like I said before, we are still the same team that, seven weeks ago, not a lot of people were giving us a chance.

We just tried to limit Ben's access this week. You'll all have plenty of chances to talk to him.
