Antrel Rolle’s weekly spot on WFAN has turned into excellent radio each week. Our friends at Sports Radio Interviews have the full transcript of Rolle’s most recent appearance this week. Here are some of the highlights:
On whether overconfidence perhaps overwhelms this team:
“I don’t think that has anything to do with it. I don’t think this team gets too confident. We’re always fighting, always in a constant battle. Guys go out there and play their hearts out. … Sometimes it’s just not good enough.”
On how much criticism Tom Coughlin and the coaching staff deserve:“We all do this as one. Players get criticized and coaches are going to get criticized. I’m not one to sit here and say who deserves what kind of criticism. As players, we just go out there and play what’s called. … Not to say that coaches should get the blame for it. I’m a fair believer of players go out there and produce.”
On losing control of their own destiny after back-to-back losses:
“That comes with the territory of this game. You have to be motivated each and every week. … We’re not going to hang our heads or focus on the Philly loss or the Green Bay loss. We’re just going to focus on Washington and just try to do our best to make sure we get this 10-win season and hope for the best after that.”
On whether the Giants are playing for Coughlin’s job this week:
“I don’t know. I don’t really get involved in all that. I’m just hoping we can go out here and make this 10-win season. If it is our last game, make sure we go out with a bang.”
