He was very impressive. Willie gives you the element the other guys don't have, the speed factor.
He gives us what we're looking for. He's excited. This is a new lease on life type of thing for him.
I will have no problem with that. Coaches, they already know, you're a product of what you're able to do on the field. If anything, it gives them more incentive and I've always felt that way, having gone through the process myself. So, we'll work within it and see what happens.
Jerome Bettis, he gives you something. He's a very special back. ... You see him running and jumping and jump-cutting, doing the things that he does.

What Jerome gives you down in the red zone is how we are using him. On a 4th-and-1 you have a guy like Jerome Bettis. It's an easy call to make really. Down around the goal line he has a great skill for that.
Duce, quite frankly, might not be 100 percent this whole year. Jerome Bettis, he gives you something.
Even at the end of the game, you can see what he gives you, that extra two, three yards. I have so much appreciation for him, more than I can even express. We've been through a lot together.
For every yard that he's gained on the field, this guy, in my mind, has exceeded that off the field ? the kind of guy he is, the way he gives back and what he stands for. I've never been around too many guys like that.
