Brian Dawkins Winning Quotations

We talked about winning out. It starts with the first game, and we won today. We have another tough game coming up next Monday (Seattle) and I see no reason why we can't win that one.

Winning does something to you. It releases something in you, it's confidence and you get that nasty taste of losing out of your mouth. You get that losing mentality out of your system. That first game is going to be critical. Once we get that first game, hopefully it will be this week, we can start doing what we need to do for the rest of the season.

I'm playing this game because I'm blessed and want to help this team win the Super Bowl, ... At the same time, I want to be considered the best safety that has ever played the game.

We know what it takes to get ourselves back on the winning side. It takes hard work.

By no means is this locker room downbeat. We understand what we should have done this past Monday. Give them credit for winning the game, but we understand what should've taken place and that shouldn't even have been a close game.

For some people, it might not make a difference, but any time you have a job to do, you want to be the best and succeed at that job. You don't just chalk it up and say that winning or losing this game does not make a difference. I don't see us doing that.
