I believe it was Tom Landry who said that after scorring touchdowns, players should "act like they've been in the end zone before."

I think it was that Packer's coach whose name escapes me at the moment. In any case, "been in the end zone before?" Yikes.

Instead, many act like they just won the Super Bowl in OT after merely getting a first down. .....or making a decent tackle.

That actually ges back to Paul Brown. He collared a rookie who'd just scored and told him to "act like you've been there before".
