Farrior spoke about his transition from the New York Jets to the Steelers, playing left inside middle linebacker vs right inside middle linebacker, his playing time with Joey Porter, Jerome Bettis, and Troy Polamalu, and what it took to become a Super Bowl champion. Farrior also spoke about the rivalry with the Baltimore Ravens, and the differences between playing for then head coach Bill Cowher, vs current head coach, Mike Tomlin.
"We were riding high, like you said, we were 7-2 at one point, and then we lose three straight. And that was very frustrating and disappointing. I think our backs were against the wall. We couldn't lose another game or we weren't going to make it to the playoffs. So, I think we all had the mindset that our playoffs were starting now." - James Farrior.The Steelers would go onto win Super Bowl XL.
