It had to be 90 percent Steelers fans out there.
I think that was the first car accident I've ever been in. I was a little bit startled.
It is hard when he is not able to practice. Even though there is that chemistry there, it is still tough. Having him back, and really having the whole team back, was great.
His numbers are incredible. If I had a fantasy team, he would probably be my first pick at the quarterback position. He is a huge guy, physically intimidating.
His speech was about the practice-squad guys on our team, and what they've meant to our team. These guys don't get to go out there and play, and yet they have busted their butt for a chance for us to be successful.
He's been very successful early in his career, and his numbers are incredible. If I had a fantasy team, he'd probably be my first pick at quarterback. He's a huge guy, physically intimidating. He moves well and is fun to watch. I respect his game and love the way he plays.
He's been a little hands-on in running the team. He's smart to let the football people he's hired run the team.
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.
Part of me wants to enjoy it, and part of me knows we have a game coming up. Raising that trophy in front of our fans was a dream come true.
Part of me really wants to enjoy this right now. But I'm kind of in shock right now. I hope people took a lot of pictures. We've got another game coming up. Standing on that podium, holding up that championship trophy in front of the fans...it was really a dream come true.
Part of me really wants to enjoy it, and part of me realizes that we have another game coming up. I hope people are taking a lot of pictures so we can look back on it. I'm a little bit in shock right now. It's a great feeling, but I'm kind of at a loss for words.
