advantage hearing nobody weak
I've been hearing it all over the place about us being the weak link. There was no way we were going to be the ones to get burned. Nobody is going to take advantage of us.
angel both devil saying
Both are fun, they're just different. It's like having an angel and a devil - I ain't saying which one is which.
matt seen surprised
I was not surprised that Matt could do that, because I have seen him do it before.
felt last season seattle
It felt good, especially after what my last season in Seattle was like.
good group happy start tough
I think he did really good, ... That was a tough group of receivers to start off with, and it was good to see that he wasn't nervous. He did a good job. I was so happy he got the pick.
eat
I always wanted to go into his suite and eat some cookies, ... That would have been pretty cool.
man raised seen
I was raised in that organization. They've seen me go from a young man to who I am today.
coaching except seattle
I didn't get coaching in Seattle like I did this year, ... except for my first two years.
bad defense pressure stop talking telling
I was talking to the Seahawks around that time, telling them I wanted to get traded. We were bad on defense -- couldn't stop the run, couldn't pressure the passer -- and it was just killing me.
block four game kindness laughed open saw time wide
We kind of laughed when we saw that they were going to open it up like that. You can't come out with four wide receivers all the time on us, not with Gregg. No one can block Gregg all game like that.
accurate effective expect matt mobile tough
When you have a quarterback that's mobile and accurate like Matt is, it's pretty tough to defend. We didn't expect Matt to be as effective as he was today, and he was great.
battling bombed night playing sunday
We've been playing well so far. Let's keep it at that. I don't want to go out Sunday night and get bombed or something like that. We've been playing well, and we've just been battling through injuries.
control
You can't control that. There's nothing you can do about that,
high love school
It's cool, man, ... There's a lot of love when you go to high school in this area.
