On Wednesday New York Jet Jason Taylor addressed the media.\u00a0 Here is the transcript courtesy of the Jets.<\/p>\n
On if he is driven by wanting a Super Bowl\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n “That\u2019s the only reason I play the game anymore. Really, (that\u2019s the only reason I played) from day one. There is a lot of great byproducts from playing at a high level, you get paid and the fame and all that, but the reason we play this game is win the Championship. You can\u2019t do that if you don\u2019t make the playoffs and this is the first step.”<\/p>\n On if this is his last chance to win a Super Bowl\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n “You know, I feel that way every year. You never know in this game. You\u2019re one bad injury from having to hang it up. The older you get in your career, you realize the end is getting closer and closer. You can see the light at the end of the tunnel. The light is coming quicker and quicker to the point where it\u2019s not blinding yet, but you need sunglasses on. You realize the end is near.”<\/p>\n On whether the players share Coach Ryan\u2019s level of confidence in believing they can beat the Colts\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n “I think we do. If you don\u2019t, then shame on you. If you talk to the Colts and they don\u2019t believe they\u2019re going to win, then shame on them. People talk about the Jets\u2019 bravado or whatever and (being) overconfident, but what would you want us to sit here and say? \u201cWe hope we win\u201d or \u201cif we happen to win.\u201d No, you have to go in believing you can do it. If you don\u2019t believe, then you might as well stay home.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On Wednesday New York Jet Jason Taylor addressed the media.\u00a0 Here is the transcript courtesy of the Jets.
