An especially impressive sweep considering he's been injured since Week 4 (http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7058294/james-harrison-pittsburgh-steelers-broken-orbital-bone-ben-roethlisberger-likely-play).

I play a game that is a violent game, and you can't go out there with a smile on your face and do your job. It's just not possible.
