Bill Cowher Super Quotations

He's a heck of an athlete. He really is a very good athlete. He was just trying to make a play, and he made a play. It was a great individual effort on his part. It was a great tackle. It was a super play on his part. Hopefully he won't have to do anymore of that.

He really had a super game. It's a tough situation for him. I am just encouraged by the fact that he has gotten it taken care of and we'll probably have the opportunity to get him back this year.

With the bye week, we probably lost a little bit of that momentum. We were in one of those zones -- 'Just tell us where we're going next. Just send us off to another team.' I think these guys thrive on this. With all due respect to Heinz Field, we just kept going off. They said, 'You're the home team for the Super Bowl.' No, we're not.

But when you lose a Super Bowl, it's twice as bad. It's like the further you go, the harder you fall.

We need to go and win one more game. No one ever remembers who lost the Super Bowl.

They're just as hungry as we are. It's a golden opportunity for us, but don't underestimate the challenge that's in front of us. ... You realize how hard it is to get there, but don't lose sight that the goal is to win a championship. Nobody remembers that you lost a Super Bowl. They remember who won a Super Bowl.

We're going to the Super Bowl to win it, not to just be there.

I would like nothing more than to be able to give Mr. Rooney the Super Bowl trophy. It would mean the world to me. He's been patient with me after we've had seasons where we didn't make the playoffs, and I'll always be grateful to him for that.

We've got to play our A game in all three phases - offense, defense and special teams - or we're not going to win this Super Bowl.

They'll never remember the teams that lost the Super Bowl. But they'll remember who won it.
