Referees have a hard job. I'm not going to just go out there and bash them. But at the same time, whenever there's a tough situation, you always want your call. If we had got all the calls, then Pittsburgh would be flipped around. That's football. Referees try their best, and that's all you can say.
We missed some opportunities, but at the same time you have to give Pittsburgh credit. You don't miss for no reason.
We missed some great opportunities that could have made us world champions. But give Pittsburgh credit. You don't miss for no reason.
We look at it that we're playing the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the winner is the best team in the world.
He is definitely coming. This is my best friend. He'll be there, probably wearing a Pittsburgh jersey, but that's OK.
I just think no one is perfect. If you asked them (the officials), they'll probably say they could have had a better game. You can't take nothing back. What you can say is Pittsburgh won, and everybody has to go and knock them off because they're now the defending champions.
I'm not used to losing. It's always hard to lose. It's disappointing. You have to give Pittsburgh credit. You don't miss the plays that often without somebody making you.
Through generations, they taught me that it's OK to be black and confident, black and loving, and to be black and a leader.
We did let a good opportunity to be world champions slip away.
We're here playing the greatest game of our lives, which we're going to have to do to win.
We're a passing team, there's no doubt about that, and we always have been. When you look up at the end of the year, we're going to have a lot of yards on the ground, and we're going to score a lot of touchdowns.
We have an unbelievable team, an unbelievable group of fans. Prayer works. I get knocked out and guys step up. One guy goes down and another guy steps up.
My mom told me a long time ago that the running back was a great position, but it's also the craziest. She's like, 'You know everybody's chasing you, right?' Once you chose to be a running back, you take the good with the bad.
My mom told me a long time ago that running back was a great position, but it's also the craziest. It just comes with the position.
