Some of it seems like it is going to go fast, then some of it is going to go slow by next Thursday before the game. We are going to enjoy where we are, but we know that our only goal is for (Super Bowl) Sunday.
It's more fulfilling to be 13-3, to know we're in the playoffs and we don't have to play next week. Those are more fulfilling than the rushing title. The scoring title, the touchdowns, I do like that. That's pretty cool.
It is going to be exciting to see us come out next year and prepare our trip to Miami.

When I started here, we went 6-10 and watched other teams dance on our field to our music. I've seen us go from a team people laughed at to a team people have to respect. Now we're at the Super Bowl trying to build a dynasty.
