Antonio Pierce Quotations

We knock those guys off next week, we might not have the best record in the N.F.C., but we'd have the best record in the East.

He feels like he's got people questioning his ability. He's not coming here with a big head. He's coming with a nasty attitude. That's what we need.

Guys ask me when I'm going to be back, and I don't have no answer for them. At the same time, I've got hope, and hoping that this team will get farther along in the playoffs and I'll be able to come back.

He just knows he doesn't have to be the focal point of this defense. We don't need him to get 10 sacks. We have two guys that can do that.

Just recently the doctors cleared me 100 percent to begin getting ready for the upcoming season. The team, with a couple of pieces, can be a Super Bowl champion. I believe that and I'm sure my teammates do as well.

Jay's my boy ... He's saved our butt three or four times,

Linebacker is a key position on every defense. And when you don't have depth that concerns you.

It felt real good, ... Just to go out and prove that I can do it week in and week out. Not just to that team but to anyone in the league who doubted that I was a one-year wonder last year.

We now have some depth, some veteran depth.

We played those guys as tough as anybody at their place. We put ourselves in a position to win, and we didn't finish.

When I first signed here, I was told by Coach Coughlin, the defensive coordinator, everybody, 'We have to knock off Philly,'

We got them off the field three times. We've got to get them off the field four times.

We've got a lot of quality right now. Get us a defensive tackle and a little more depth, and we'll be fine. We just need a guy to hold two guys off of us. Just a guy who'll be unselfish.

That's how serious he is about proving himself. This isn't even about playing with a chip on your shoulder. He's got people doubting him, dogging him. You're all going to see real quick what he's about.

He's revived. He's coming back with a chip on his shoulder.

He really likes New York and sees it as a good fit. He's made his trips and I think he'd like to make a decision soon and get back to the football aspect of things.
