It sounds like Marvin and I might win out on it. It's still in the building, I think, and hopefully, we'll get it worked out.
I can't tell you how much I studied these guys the last two weeks. We expected to play Pittsburgh. I really studied them hard and just really, just tried to prepare as hard as I possibly could. It's so disappointing when you don't win the game.
It goes without saying, winning against a good team in a hostile crowd on the road, it's just an absolutely huge win.
If your team is going to win, you need to play better than the other quarterback.
Touchdowns to me means that you're scoring points and helping your team win games. You can have a lot of yards and not have points and not win games. So, this only means something because it has helped our teams win games and we won the division today in a competitive AFC West, that's a good thing.
The idea is to win the game. We realize we can't expect to score 10 points and win a bunch of games.
We're doing a good job of getting into the third-and-shorts, ... When you get into those, you've got to be able to convert them.
The sad thing is, he's a good kicker. He's a good kicker, but he's an idiot.
We have a high sense of urgency on this team. We realize with free agency and with injuries, the days of building and talking about playing for 2006 and 2007, that doesn't make sense anymore.
That was a little bit of an aggressive call, ... That was a run, but I kind of got tired of handing off. I did change up . . . . But I'm doing pretty good for the most part.
Mike has been so awesome. He's such a clutch kicker. People are surprised (when he misses) because he's such a great player. There's nothing he has to apologize for. He's made so many clutch kicks for us.
I was happy we were able to get a little rhythm going there in the first half. We had a good mix of the run and the pass and the play-action. We had some good drives.
I think our team realizes what kind of team Seattle is. Certainly what they are playing for in getting ready for their playoff run. You know what type of effort you are going to get from them.
We know these people; these people know us. We have a connection to these people.
