anxious guys movies nicely point sleeping sort taking travel watching
It's the way it's always been when we travel. It's sort of light. Guys are watching movies. We travel nicely on Mr. Allen's plane. Guys are sleeping and guys are taking it easy. Nobody's really anxious at this point about what we're about to be a part of. It's sort of the same old, same old.
answered biggest came flying game questions
That's the biggest game that this organization has ever been in and he came through with flying colors. If there were any questions about his toughness, they should have been answered then.
chips fallen
That's OK. I've been blessed. The chips have fallen my way.
athletic freak guy looks man matter playing pro size superior walt
No matter who Walt is playing, it really looks like he is a man playing with little kids. It doesn't matter if a guy is a Pro Bowler. Walt just has superior strength, size and athletic ability. He is a freak of nature.
forward fun good guys holes open
It's fun. I know those guys are good at what they do, so I look forward to Sunday. Hopefully, I'll be able to open up some holes for them.
complete couple everybody field football guy played shows team today
It shows that we're a complete team. This team is not just about one guy or a couple of guys. It's about everybody on this football team. Everybody that went out there on that field today that played is important.
guys matter needed plays time understanding
It's just a matter of guys just understanding it's time to make plays. Those opportunities in the past, when we had them, we didn't make the plays when we needed to, and this time we did. That's the difference.
opportunity seems special
It seems to be our year. We have an opportunity to do something very special in this city.
best trying week
It's a play we were working on all week long. I was just trying my best not to fumble the football.
football games people physical reputation seemingly speaks team
This will probably be one of the most physical football games that has ever been. Pittsburgh's reputation speaks for itself, and people seemingly don't know a whole lot about us, but we're a pretty physical team as well.
biggest clue game magnitude maybe might perennial road super
We have no real clue of the magnitude of this win. Maybe years down the road when the Seahawks are perennial contenders for the Super Bowl, it might not be such a big deal, but right now, this is the biggest game ever in this organization's history.
focused knew mike past penalties plays starts
We knew what we had to get done. We knew the things that had plagued us in the past were turnovers, penalties and not making the plays when we had the opportunity. We were a lot more focused today. That starts with Mike and Matt.
guys hopefully standard
Those guys will be Seahawks forever. I know that they've been an inspiration to us, just the standard that they set years ago, and hopefully they can feel a part of this.
guys rely
What we've got is a lot of weapons. We don't have to rely on one guy. We've got 11 guys we rely on.
