DE Emmanuel Ogbah

(Can you walk us through what you’ve been feeling this week? Are you excited to see some of your former teammates? Obviously you won a ring with this team, so what is this Sunday’s game going to mean for you?) – “It’s a big game for us. We treat it like every other game. They’re a good team. They’re coming in. We’ve got a good game plan and we’re just ready to take them on. That’s all I’m going to say.”

(Obviously you practiced against these guys a lot with QB Patrick Mahomes and that offense. Is there any fun on your side that you get to hit some of these guys for real actually now?) – “It’s going to be a great game. Like I said, we have a great game plan and we’ve just got to be ready for them.”

(What did you take or learn from last year and your experience with the Chiefs? Obviously the ring is one thing, but what did you take from that experience?) – “They’re a good football team that has great players. We’re just going to have to do a good job trying to stop them. They have a lot of speed. That’s all I take from them. We have to be prepared with speed too.”

(I can’t imagine to be what it’s like to be on a team that goes to a Super Bowl, wins a Super Bowl and yet you’re injured. What were your emotions like during that whole run-up to the championship?) – “It was very tough for me watching those guys. I was happy for them. I know what we went through during training camp and all of that, during practice, during the season. They know how to work so I was happy for them; but at the same time, I was salty because I didn’t get to play. But it’s all good. I’m going to try to do it for Miami.”

(The Chiefs are an 11-win team, the defending Super Bowl champions and the No. 1 offense in the NFL coming to town. I’m curious, has this week been any different from a preparation standpoint or maybe the energy in the building? Or has it been the same?) – “We treat them like any other team. They’re obviously a really good team. We have a great game plan and we’re ready for them.”

(For you personally, you already have a career high in sacks but that 10 number is often fun for pass rushers to go to. Is that a number that you’re hopeful to get this year or that you’re keying in on?) – “My goal is to just create plays and cause havoc to the offense. If that’s getting sacks, getting pressures, getting hits, I’m ready to do it all.”

(A lot of people, myself included, would say that the Dolphins are getting a bargain based on your production. When you hear that, how do you feel?) – “Like I said, they’re the team that gave me this opportunity. I’m just going out there balling for them. I’m thankful for the opportunity they gave me when a lot of teams didn’t.”
