Donte Whitner on Jim Rome

Recommended Posts

Rome said the Bills will be 4-0 after next week, teams don't miss the playoffs after starting 4-0.

 

Rome asked about the playoff guarantee. Then he asked about the hit on Johnny Lee Higgins.

 

Donte said he felt he was disrespecting the Bills by celebrating early and wouldnt stand for it.

 

Rome asked how much confidence does he have in Trent. Donte wants play with him for a long-time.

 

Rome asked if the 175 shot was true. Donte said it was a called a Richard, and says he takes the special teams guys out after the win.

 

2-0 gets a shot, what does a playoff win get?? cars??, money?

 

Does Buffalo remind him of Columbus? Donte said fans are tailgatin for days before. Fans were the loudest yesterday he's ever played in.

RECAP:

 

- getting to 3-0 feels great

 

- prediction to make playoffs wasn't just a message to the team, but to the league that a young team with improving players had arrived. All the pieces are in place, we've got talent, we put in the work which makes gameday easier. Ready to improve, ready to get better.

 

- didn't care for Higgins' showboating. We respect our opponent, we want their respect. Had to show Higgins how we play.

 

- yesterday wasn't a game we win last year. We have confidence, we will continue to fight, have been through adversity, last year built us up. We'll play until there's 0:00 on the clock.

 

- the team has A LOT of confidence in Trent. He has worked his tail off, studies hard, works hard all year long from OTA's through the season. People want to emulate his work ethic.

 

- $175 shot at the Chop House is TRUE. Donte and crew will be back there tonight, he'll be taking out some D guys and a bunch of ST's guys because they work hard and deserve the team's appreciation. Playoff win should get me a car! hahahaha

 

- we're going to continue to work hard and win. Wins are big for the community. Rome knows what its like in Buffalo, struggling town, live and die by the Bills... Donte agrees it is similar to Columbus, where people go nuts for the team.

 

- yesterday was one of the loudest games he's played in his entire career.

 

- Jim loved the interview. Recapped Whitner, Barnes and Edwards coming on... said "Bills are a great jungle team."

 

Overall, a solid interview. Donte is the man.
