afford ball beat caught missed
In a championship game, you can't afford any mistakes. I thought I was going to be able to swat the ball down. I just completely missed it and he caught it, and he just beat me on that play.
deserved deserves knew people saying smith steve
Steve Smith deserves that kind of credit, and you know you have to give him that kind of respect. But we wanted to show people that we deserved to be here, that we also deserved that kind of respect. We knew we were better than what people were saying about us.
attention focus game gets nice worry
The attention is nice at first, but it gets kind of old. You just want to focus on the game. Now we can really focus on game and not worry about what we have to say. It's going to be a relief.
affects belong football says somebody talk
Talk is talk. Football is football. If what somebody says affects the way you play on Sunday, you don't belong in the NFL.
asset definitely great life spirit
Enthusiasm. There is a life and a spirit about him that definitely is not here. It's going to be great to have that asset back.
corners effort good played team
It was a good effort by our defense. The D-line got a good rush, and the corners got a good jam, and we played over the top. So I think it was a team effort that got it done.
committed shows team tough willing
It shows you how tough he is and how committed he is to this team and what he's willing to go through.
compared emotional hard potential situation super time
It was really scary. I mean, he was in a situation where he had the potential to die. Super Bowl, all that is nothing compared to someone's life. That was a very, very hard time, a very emotional time for our team.
defense good hopefully point prove respect
The Seahawks defense is just as good as any other defense, if not better. We have a point to prove on Sunday. Hopefully we can get it done and get a little respect around the league.
balls missed plays
They're right. I make a lot of plays off other people's tipped balls or missed tackles.
building chemistry confidence dominant great playing together ways younger
There's a lot of new faces, a lot of younger guys, but I think they're building something great here. Once we get that chemistry together and that confidence of playing together, then I think we'll be a dominant defense. We still have a long ways to go, but we have great potential.
corners definitely help knew mess stake
There's definitely a lot more at stake when you mess up. At linebacker, when I made a mistake, I knew my safeties and corners were going to back me up. Now, if I mess up, the only person who is going to help me is the ref.
cheating corners defensive extra good guys line looked played sound
It wasn't that we put extra guys on him or did anything different. The corners played a sound game; they weren't cheating up or anything. The safeties were over the top. The defensive line put on good pressure. That's why it looked like we were all over the place: Everyone was where they should be.
clean opened
It opened up for me and I got a clean hit.
