This guy is such an asshole. He's T.O. Part 2.

On the game: “We kept in it with the run. We were getting shut down at times, but those guys on the offensive line are so fired up, Brian Waters and Casey Wiegmann, about getting the ball up the field and we started pounding them more and more. The more we got excited [the more] the defense got pumped up and we started making big runs.
“It was a special game for me, especially against this type of defense. Everybody including the media expects me to fold and think that their linebacking crew was going to shut us down. Our offensive line did a great job of getting in a rhythm and getting us going.
On wearing gloves today when earlier saying he was not going to: “I was really contemplating it. The ball wasn’t so hard. As the wind went on and the sun was going to go down, that ball was going to be as hard as a rock. I wanted to make sure that I kept it secure and make sure when it came down to a game like this that I didn’t fumble.”
On whether or not this team is gelling: “I think so. Everybody’s coming together. We’re all rooting for each other, no one is getting down and blaming and pointing fingers. I’m just so proud of Gunther Cunningham because he and I have talked years on top of years getting our final respect and due. I’m just proud of the defense. I’m more proud of the defense than I am of the offense. The defense played with a lot of heart. They have been taking a lot of shots all season and the last couple years that I’ve been here. Those guys really stepped up and answered the call.”
On Denver’s fourth down run, did you think he was short? “I had doubts. When you go up in there, even for a running back, you don’t get turned sideways. It’s hard to give you first down when you get turned sideways. He [Denver RB Mike Anderson] really didn’t keep his feet or get any forward leaning. I was happy that he got stopped.”
On today’s victory: “Eddie Kennison and Samie Parker blocked their butts off. The offensive line, those guys love to block and run block. Tony Richardson has done such an awesome job of lead blocking for me. Everybody has an effort in the run, knowing that they were the best run defense in the league. To come out and show that type of effort, I’m proud of them.”
On him showing patience on some of his runs today: “That kind of shocked me, because that’s not really my thing, or my character. I felt I was out of character bouncing out, and after awhile I got comfortable with it. Of course, on that last touchdown, I had it, was being patient and keeping with it, really frightening myself. I was saying ‘Stay out there, stay out there and don’t turn it back in there.’ There was a time I would have turned inside and gotten tackled. But I had patience and came out there with the rest of the boys.”
