POST GAME QUOTESSteelers vs Patriots —— Sunday. Septeither 15. 1991 —— Three Riven Stadh.
HEAD COACH CHUCK NOLL:
'I'm haopy with the fact that our defense kept them off the scoreboard — notouchdowns. That's a real plus. I think the scores they did get were on ourand the fumbles. Probably we should have alerted our people a little more because
•
when Joe Collier was in Denver, one of the things they. did very much was fOrcefumbles and make things happen like that. Offensively I thought we did what we haddo. It took us a while to crank it up. I think it was 1:30 of the second quarterwhen we started it and got moving a little bit. We got some life into our offenseafter the disappointments of the turnovers. The thing that impressed me about NewEngland —— they're a big, strong physical football team. We were impressed by thatI think they're going to win some football games.
(Did you have difficulty blocking on first fumble?): 'No. I don't know what .

on the thing. Bubby (1%rister) not have come up far enough, but (Barry) fostersaid he didn't get the football. (Did Foster go where he was supposed to go?) YeahHe went where he's supposed to go. We've got to move out.

(On 4th 1 1 at goal line — were you upset with the blocking?) We've got to seal• inside. We didn't seal down inside very well and we're trying to find out what
happened. (Why didn't you go for the field goal instead?) Because I'm greedy.
•(How did they shut down running attack?): 'They have an eight—man front. they'retough. They're big, strong, physical guys —— tough to block. (Andre) Tippett ishealthy again and playip-.g outstanding football. They have some big strong people .'$inside that play the run very well. They were number one against the run before(qame) and I don't think we changed that. We got some yardage throwing the footballiand that helped.

• (Has Louis Lipps been running over the middle or has he been more of a sideline'lie does it all. It's just a question of how you hook up with him and that dependsmany times on the defense. It's following progressions and keys and going to theproper guy at the right time.
CB ROD WOOIiSON: 'This was a redemption week, We went out there and played well and :'Y
came home with the win. (Did you play more intensely?) Yeah I think we did. I think
the overall team played a lot more intensely than we did the week before. It's one
those things that it's hard to get that motivation for 16 weeks.
(Is it difficult to be satisfied with the level of play? Are you just satisfieda win?): 'New England's been there for a long time. A let at people underrate them. aWe've got to go out there and play every game hard. This is a stepping stone. We sayyç.

working and eventually things will go your way. (Or, understanding Joe Walton's .
offense): We're way ahead of the ball game compared to last year. The main thing isI think we're going to get bettor as the season goes on. I think for the most parteverybody's pretty comfortable with it and understands what we're trying toaccomplish. You've got to execute. If you can't execute it doesn't matter how simpli-'it •

HEAD COACH DICK MAC PHERSON: 1
'I'd like to conqratulate the Pittsburgh Steelers for a fine win. I thought they hungin there through some adversity like we did. They waited for that break and tookadvantage of it when they had it. I think that we got a bunch of guys that have

out. We're not smooth. I think that everybody's involved in it. I just feelfor the players of the New England Patriots. They deserve a better fate because
• they're doing the right things to win, they're just not getting them done during aballgame. We've got to get some breaks. We had some early. Things always seem to go,against us. (On close score): It's a win or a loss is the way we look at it. they
could have punched another one in. It's all irrelevant. They won, we l,ost.
(On Tom Hodson's performance).: 'The quarterback battle was tremendously hard today.The two interceptions were not the quarterback's fault. I thought he played a realgutsy football game and did what he had to do to be a good quarterback today.
(On critical errors): '(On) the field goal, we got a holding penalty, so we had to
tick it over and (we get)another penalty then we missed it. That's three points tak,en/iff in a critical situation at a critical time which changes all kinds of thingsespecially morale. When we are trying to get going we always seem to be alittle snake—bit. That goes in it,' r
0? TON HUDSON: (On physicality of game): '1 took some hard hits but you have to keepgetting up. We had a couple special teams problems at the end.
(How frustrating is it when you make mistakes?): 'It's frustrating for us becausehard to overcome big mistakes. You can only get so many big plays a game to movechains and when you get third—and—25 it's hard to convert. These are drive—killers1 .jWe can't make mistakes. .
(Is it difficult to find positive things in a game like this?): 'Sure. When you lose"
20 to 6, it's hard to find good things in a bad loss. (What do you do to shake that?)Get back and practice Wednesday. The defense played well all game.'
's' LB EuBENE LOCKHART: (It seems like you're playing better but you're snake—bit) Itreally does seem like little things happen to us. If it's not in the kicking game, . Sit s the defense and sometimes the offense. We're just going to have to reallyconcentrate and try to put our entire game together. I. know' there's no such thing asa mistake—free football game but the mistakes that we're making are the ones that yebeating us. There's no doubt in my mind we could be a 3—0 football
