DT Calais Campbell

(Obviously, with two games left you guys have to win and need a little bit of help. How do you guys go into this weekend knowing that your playoff fate could be sealed even possibly by tomorrow night?) – “You’ve got to just have the mindset of controlling what you can control. Obviously, we would have preferred to be in a situation where we didn’t need a lot of help, but that’s not how the season went and so we’ve just got to go through it. I don’t even really want guys watching those games, just focus on what we’ve got going on and make sure we go out there and we prepare and hopefully, the football gods bless us with an opportunity to stay alive. But when it’s all said and done, we just do our part and let the rest take care of itself.”

(With that being said, how hard is it not to cheerlead knowing what’s at stake?) – “It’s hard. It’s hard because you want to be in there, you want to be in the dance. And so you go through the whole process and you turn into a fan a little bit, you’re hoping, you’re wishing that the teams you need to lose, lose and I kind of feel like the biggest hater, man. I’m a hater out there right now because I be hating on the Broncos and Chargers and Colts. It’s not the ideal way of being a fan but it is what it is. I really want the Dolphins to be a playoff team, so for us to get that, we have to go out there and get some help. I grew up in Denver too, so I used to be the biggest Broncos fan and all my family still are Broncos fans, but I’m like, ‘Nah, we got to be haters now, right, everybody?’ But I’ll say this game is a beautiful game. I’ve seen crazy things happen. I’ve seen the Broncos actually lose out when the Chargers needed to win out to get to the playoffs, that was before I was even in the league, but you see it happen. I mean crazy things have happened, so it’s not like it can’t be done. Just hoping and wishing that it happens for us this year.”
