biggest cures winning
Winning cures a lot of things, ... That was one of my biggest gripes, just not being able to compete.
great looked loss miss super watching win
It would be a great loss for the league. I'm going to miss him. I looked up to him, watching him win Super Bowls.
almost burnt coffee hot leg maybe threw
They almost burnt me with a Marlboro or something. They threw hot coffee on my leg. Or maybe it was hot chocolate. It was hot, though. It burnt my leg a little bit. It's not a big issue.
cancer deep manner passion people point viewed
I wasn't a cancer, ... It was just a point of having a deep passion for winning, and people viewed that in a different manner or whatnot. That's in the past.
bowl call football great looking outside super three word
From the outside looking in, this is a great football team. Three out of four? That's something. I don't know what to call it. I'm not going to say the D word (dynasty). I'm going to just call it my first Super Bowl win.
last
I don't feel too bad. I don't know what that amounts to, but I do feel better than I did last year.
days frustrated situations tested work
My frustrated days are over. I'm too old to be frustrated, ... All I can do is work to get better. I think I've been tested for situations like this. I'm not going to say it's not a concern, but it's not the end of the world. I know it's going to get better.
doubt last learning year
No doubt I'm more comfortable. Last year I was kind of learning on the fly; this year I have a better sense of what to do and what not to do.
came cry doubt felt final football games hit knew since time win
No doubt about it, this is what I came here for. I knew we were going to win a lot of football games this year. I thought I would cry (after the final gun), but I don't know how to act. It really hasn't hit me yet. It's been a long time since I felt like this.
ready
I feel good. I'm healthy. I'm ready to go.
advantage opportunity presents
It is what it is. You have to take advantage when opportunity presents itself.
finish help last team whatever yards
I've got enough yards to last me a lifetime. Right now, it's just about doing whatever I can to help this team win. I'm just going to finish strong.
bowls carry pressure super trying weight winning
They were winning Super Bowls without me, ... There's no pressure on me to come in and have the weight of trying to carry the load.
best bunch career coaches enjoying great happy last
It is special, and the last two years have been the best of my career and, hopefully, they get better. I am enjoying the ride. I play with a great bunch of guys, a great owner, great coaches and I'm just happy I am here.
