Brian Calhoun Running Quotations

Obviously, I'm a running back and I wanted to play running back and they had different plans, which is fine. It was just time to split ways.

He definitely had a lot of pancake blocks. He's just going to get better and we're going to keep running to his side.

(Irons is) a great running back, and if he makes a big play in the game, I'm going to try to top it but it's not like I am going to try to be better than he is or anything like that.

I'm sure Barnett probably still thinks I'm not a running back. But that's definitely my motivation throughout the season, that I can carry a full load and be durable.

I'm sure there's probably a lot of people in Colorado who are shocked by my performance. I didn't have a lot of support out there as a running back and I just wanted to prove that I'm a running back and that I can carry 30 or 40 times a game.

It was pretty back-and-forth. Up until probably the last minute. I just felt like, I don't know if my value could be any higher than this year, the way I finished off, than it could next year. Obviously there are a lot of good running backs in this class, but I feel like I'm just as good as any of them.

It's always good just for competition, but there's a lot of good running backs that are here and are going to work out, and I know everybody is looking at the guy ahead of him to see what he does and that's going to be no different for me. I understand that he's not working out, but that's his choice and I respect that.

It wasn't just me. The offensive line did a great job today. Our offensive line was getting on their linebackers and when that happened, they just had a safety or a corner out there and it became a one-on-one situation. That's why we were so productive running the ball.
