Sheldon Brown Team Quotations

If we're not in shape, it seems to me we played in the Super Bowl last year. We've played in four NFC championships. Maybe more teams ought to be doing what we're doing.

We beat ourselves. That was the bottom line. Nobody came in here and really dominated us... We made too many mental mistakes. Teams made more plays than us.

We learned how to handle it in the future. You get a good strong nucleus of teammates get together and talk to the guy. You sit him down and say, ?we understand you have problems with them but our common goal is to win football games and to be a Super Bowl team and then we all get what we want.

Donovan is the franchise player here. We built this team around him. We're going to go as far as he takes us, so we all have to be behind him, and that's all 52 (teammates).

Donovan has always been the leader of this team. That's always the case with every team. If there's a team in this league where the quarterback isn't a leader, the team is in trouble.

Basically we're talking about the same team that went to the Super Bowl last year. So what was the problem? We had too many mental mistakes. How do you correct that? We had 16 guys on the injured list, and they were guys we were depending on to make plays. If we get those guys back, I think we'll be very competitive.
