barely challenge entire seed teams throughout top tough
I still see us as underdogs. Seattle's been one of the top teams in the league, throughout the entire year. We're a No. 6 seed and barely made the playoffs. We've got a tough challenge ahead.
aura confidence feed puts team
I think he really puts out an aura of confidence for the whole team to feed off of.
fun guess guys help somebody speaks talk team thankful time turn
I guess I'm a little guarded, ... But the more I get to know people, the more fun I can have. I'm just thankful I'm on a team like this, because every time I turn around, somebody is there to help me out and talk to me. That speaks a lot about the guys on this team.
game move pass running stuck taking teams
We're doing what we have to do to move the football, and teams have been stuck on taking away our running game so we've had to pass to move it.
bit hear knew league nice obviously player team
I was a little bit surprised. I obviously knew of him. And I thought it was nice of him to call. It was very nice to hear from a player who has been in the league for so many years. To hear from a player that's not even on your team was really nice.
face forward great guy hear help helped meant people reach relate rookie seeing team
Not only did he reach out to help a rookie who didn't know many people around here, but he helped out a guy who's not even on this team anymore, ... Obviously, it's because he's a great guy. It meant a lot to me to hear from him. He could relate to me. He was able to help me. I look forward to seeing him face to face (today).
guess
Sorry, ... I guess I don't have much to say.
hard physical possible run
I think I always try to play hard and be as physical as possible after I get the ball, ... I'm probably not going to outrun too many people, so I just try to run them over.
game mean passing time today
We can play the way we did today any time we want. Just because we don't always show a big-play passing game doesn't mean we don't have it.
football frustrated help sure
He's a big part of our football team, and I know he was frustrated he wasn't able to play. I'm sure he'll be back and will be a big help to us.
best experience great statistics success talk tight type winning worried
I'd like to talk to him, but just about being the best tight end I can be, ... I know he did some great things here and was part of a lot of winning teams. I want to experience that type of success here. I'm not too worried about my statistics because that's not what's important. It's winning games.
felt line played
I felt I was on all my assignments and I played well at the line of scrimmage.
ben came flooded open
We kind of flooded the side. I came open in the corner, and Ben got me the ball.
almost guys learned playing
It's almost too much to think about. So you don't think about it. That's what we've learned from the guys in this room: Not to think too much about it, just go out and concentrate on playing football.
