Everyone always says you have to be on the best team, the team that wins. Oh, no, no, no. I disagree with that.

Bottom line is I always want what's best for the team, and as long as the football team is winning games, I'm happy.

I made a better decision in choosing my team. Sure, I had a bigger choice of players to choose from - but I couldn't have asked for a harder working group of players who did an incredible job.

If you get depressed about being the second-best team in the world, then you've got a problem.

We never had a huge squad and we never had a great deal of choice. But in many ways that helps because you've got to make do with what you've got. You don't have too many problems about picking the team you just hope that everyone turns up on the day.

The team that is the most focused and executes the best is the team that wins. That's usually the team that can handle the pressure of the situation.

Our teams always play hard.

I think that's the key for a good team, to work together like a family. It's something that I've learned over the years with the experience that I've gotten over 10 seasons.

But the best teams I've encountered have one important thing in common: their team structure and processes cover a full range of distinct competencies necessary for success.

Sometimes you can be one of the best, but you don't accept that if you don't get the ring or win the Super Bowl. There's a lot of good teams between the Super Bowl winner and other teams. Once the Super Bowl is over, we lump everyone into the other 31, and that's not fair.
