We have so many veteran guys like Willie McGinest, Mike Vrabel, Richard Seymour, Larry Izzo, guys that have been in the fire. We lose those two guys (Bruschi and Johnson), but other guys have really stepped up to really meet that challenge.
You go out there and you play the game hard, but you never want to see anyone down. And I just felt really bad. The guy is vulnerable being down like that. It was just hard on me.
Sometimes, ... you just have bad days at the office, and you just have to chalk it up, continue to work hard and look at how each and every guy in this room can get better.
I know I can come back from this, ... It's just a matter of how hard and how bad I want to do it. You and I have talked about this before; football is not my life, it's a part of my life. It's what I do, it's not who I am.
