Pat Chung not in mood to talk about Rodney Harrison, David Tyree 01.30.12 at 6:32 pm ET

Patrick Chung is thinking, but not about Rodney Harrison. (AP)

INDIANAPOLIS — After a win over the Redskins that saw Rex Grossman throw for 252 yards and a pair of touchdowns, Rodney Harrison referred to the New England secondary as “probably” the worst he’s seen in the last decade.

On Tuesday, Pat Chung was asked if the comments made by the former New England safety served as motivation for the secondary over the last five games.

“It is honestly the first time I heard that,” Chung said.

That seemed impossible to me, given a) that Harrison said it on the most prominent football show in America and b) Vince Wilfork, among others, weighed in on the comments the very next. But Chung was adamant.

“I’m telling you, never,” Chung insisted. “Doesn’t matter if he did or didn’t, anyway. That’s his job, mine is to play football. All we are worried about is this game. That’s it. We are not worried about anyone else. Just keep playing and continue to do the positives.”

Chung, who says he talks to Harrison “every couple of weeks or so,” also passed on this Patriots-Giants Super Bowl question:

Does David Tyree make The Catch if Pat Chung, and not Rodney Harrison, is the safety?

“Come on,” Chung said. laughing. “I’m not going to answer that, man. This is a totally different team, different players, different time. I’m not going to touch that one. It was an amazing catch, though.”
