Nickell Robey-Coleman is most assuredly making the most of his moment under the spotlight.
Seemingly unrattled by the negative aftermath from the NFC title game, Robey-Coleman seems likewise unworried about the prospects of providing fuel to the Patriots, if you haven't heard.
"Yes. Yes. Age has definitely taken a toll. For him to still be doing it, that's a great compliment for him. But I think that he's definitely not the same quarterback he was," Robey-Coleman said. "Movement. Speed. Velocity. Arm strength. He still can sling it, but he's not slinging it as much. Whatever he was doing -- because of his age and all that -- he's not doing as much of that anymore. He's still doing the same things; he's just not doing as much of it. And sometimes, it's not the sharpest. But it still gets done."
Indeed, he's not worried about providing incendiary comments. Instead, he's focused on doing everything in his power to win the battle for Atlanta that will commence on Sunday afternoon.
"Because I know the art of war," Robey-Coleman said. "I know when to sink my teeth in. And when it's time to take advantage, when somebody's on their heels ... you've got to come at them. Stick the dagger in them. Leave no doubt. That's all you've got to say. Leave no doubt. Don't fear, don't fear, don't fear beating the giant. Don't fear beating the GOAT. Don't fear it. Embrace it. Embrace it. Take it in -- while you're doing it."
As for the lingering outrage regarding his hit against Saints receiver Tommylee Lewis, much of it directed at Robey-Coleman, well, he does not trouble himself with that.
Said Robey-Coleman: "Wolves don't concern themselves with the opinions of sheep."
