Jason Matthew Smith: Eric Olczyk

Quotes 

• Eric Olczyk : How do you do it? Stay on the job when you're up against something bigger than you are?

  Coach George : You just keep showing up. Guys like you and me, that's all we can do.

• Eric Olczyk : It's been obvious to every scout who ever looked at you: too slow, too awkward, lucky. It's a wonder you keep suiting up. It's a wonder you made it in this league at all. All the work it took getting here, takes twice that and more to stay. And still you're up against guys who are bigger, stronger, faster. Which is why you can't miss a snap count. A tendency. A tell. 'Cause when you know that two taps means pass, you haven't just leveled the playing field... you've actually got the advantage.
