I think we can keep people off-balance and ultimately we have to go score points, score one more point than the other team. — © Philip Rivers
I think we can keep people off-balance and ultimately we have to go score points, score one more point than the other team.
Obviously, people say offense wins games, defenses win championships. But I think, at the end of the day, if you score more points than the other team, you're going to win.
For us, it's about winning. How do you do that? You score more points than the other team.
It bothers me that the average fan, the average sportswriter for that matter, pays so much attention to what's in a box score. A box score does not properly represent the most important thing - team play. It shows some guy scoring 27 points, but it doesn't show that my 27-point man let his guy score 30.
I'm a point guard, so I want to see everybody else score and be happy. I don't necessarily need to score at all. I could be happy with zero points as long as it was a team game and everybody contributed.
For me, it's about winning games. I'm trying to score more points than the other team. I don't really care how we do it.
Stats don't matter. I care about winning, not stats. If I score 0 points and we win I'm happy. If I score 50, 60 points, break the records, and we lose, I'm pissed off. 'Cause I knew I did something wrong. I'll have a hell of a season if I win the championship and average 20 points a game.
If you go to ice and you think, 'I must score' or 'I must get some points,' you won't score or get any points. You must go and play and don't think about it.
When I go out there, I try to do everything I can to win. That doesn't mean I have to score more than the other team; it may mean stopping the other team.
We'll do whatever it takes to score as many points as we can-and definitely one more point than the opponent.
I got to have more of those type of games where I'm just engaged. It doesn't matter the score or how many points I score.
My job is to protect the football and score points and lead this offense on drives to score points.
You can't score if you're turning it over. It's like a punt. If you go out and you punt 12 times, you're not scoring points. That's not good. So, when you turn the ball over and throw interceptions, you're giving the other team more opportunities and your team less opportunities.
I am a firm believer that if you score one goal the other team have to score two to win.
Certainly our job as an offense to try to score points and that's running the ball, throwing the ball, whatever it is. Somehow, someway we've got to try to score points to help our team win. That's where the focus is and it's pretty easy just to focus on that.
As a point guard, you don't really have to score. The only time you have to score is when you have to score.
The job of the offense is not to score points. The job of the defense is not to stop the other team from scoring points.
