Some of those people are former players here. Some are coaches that have been around or people in the building. Or maybe it's just some of the people from Seattle who have followed the team since 1976. It would mean a great deal to them.
Some people are into ball control. We're into yards and points. Tempo is our thing.
My only eligible receivers were on that side of the field and I didn't have enough on the ball.
That was fun n a little sloppy at times, but some of the most exciting plays I've seen all year. Coach Fox promised, by the end of the week, 'We'll put a smile on your face.' All the Seattle guys were smiling.
That was fun -- a little sloppy at times, but some of the most exciting plays I've seen all year.
That's unfortunate because, in the biggest game of your life, you want to play with the balls you've been playing with all season.

We're a focused team right now. For the first time, you can say, hey, I know I can count on the guy next to me. That's definitely a good feeling.
