NEW YORK JETS RB LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON - Ingles

January 20, 2011

On the AFC Championship Game being the biggest game of his career:

Yes it is. No question. Just to be in this situation, back in the AFC Championship Game with so much on the line, this is the biggest game that I have been in.

On the personal significance of winning a Super Bowl:

It would mean everything, to be honest with you. I’ve dreamed about winning a Super Bowl championship since I was six-years old, growing up right there in Texas. Being a huge Cowboys fan and seeing the Cowboys win three Super Bowls in the 90’s, that was right when I was growing up and football was everything. So you can imagine, I always dreamt about having the chance to win my own championship. To have the opportunity back at home, it would be a dream come true. It would be anything and everything that I could ask for in my career.

On being featured in a two-running back offense:

I think that in this system, you really have a chance to take a breath and get out of the game, and you can keep going at it fully for four quarters. Usually when you are the No. 1 back and you take all the carries, you have to pace yourself throughout the game to make sure you have something left in the fourth quarter.

With Shonn (Greene) and I, we can just go full-tilt every time we’re in there because we know we have got somebody who can come in and take some of the carries and take some of the snaps and both of us can stay fresh.
