hawkeye Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 "You have to have players," Gonzalez said. "I don't care how hard you work. I've been on teams that worked hard and weren't good. It's the players. You can't win any other way. I don't care how brilliant the coach or the GM is. You have to have the guys who can get the job done. And we have that.""We're not interested in winning a couple of games here and there," Gonzalez said. "Why can't we go out and win it all? Why should we shy away from that? I want to go undefeated and win the Super Bowl. If we play our best, why couldn't that happen? I don't think it's being arrogant saying that because that should be the goal. Anybody out there saying why are we saying that or those are false expectations are people I don't want on my team."http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/story/13770559/falcons-camp-report-faster-better-and-thinking-very-big?tag=globalNav.nfl;cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dardan Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Nice article. It's not just Tony. Turner and Ryan were quoted, too..."I think we have what it takes [to win it all]," running back Michael Turner said. "But when I was with the Chargers, we had all the talent to win it all and we didn't. I preach that message to the guys. We have the talent, but it takes a lot of work. It doesn't mean anything is guaranteed. But we have the players to make it happen." "I don't think anybody is shying away from the idea we can be good," Ryan said. "In fact, it's the opposite. We're embracing it."They're all singing from the same sheet of music. Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durrty Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 See, that's the type of attitude a champion embraces.Falcons' teams of the past weren't consistent in maintaining that standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
