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.
I've seen us go from a team that was 6-10 and people would be laughing at to a team that you have to respect.
What people don't realize is that he's the best fullback in football. And to me he has been for the last three years. And he's never complained about what he has to do.
We love the fact we have one of the best records (15-3) in the NFL and people still think it is luck.
Tons. I took a lot of it. Medicine's good for people, but I'm one of the people it's not really good for.
I think people will say, 'You know what? That Shaun Alexander, he did all right when he was here.
After the smoke clears, I think people will say, 'You know what? That Shaun Alexander, he did all right when he was here. I think there will be more smiles when the smoke clears.
Everybody has an opinion. We decided in training camp we're not going to worry about what people say or what they do. We're going to play football. And at the end of the day, we're going to be proud of what we do.
No, I'm one of those people who says if you don't think big and don't dream big, you can't get there.
I think we showed a lot of people about this team.
I think a lot of people don't know how good we are.
I don't really listen to talk. Usually, when people talk they get my linemen upset, and after a while, they stop.
I don't know how people can say they played great when they lose. So I played OK. It would have been a little bit better if we would have won.
If I could have one superpower, I'd want to have the power of mind over matter. I'd want to be able to move things and people with my mind.
