hard physical possible run
I think I always try to play hard and be as physical as possible after I get the ball, ... I'm probably not going to outrun too many people, so I just try to run them over.
bit hear knew league nice obviously player team
I was a little bit surprised. I obviously knew of him. And I thought it was nice of him to call. It was very nice to hear from a player who has been in the league for so many years. To hear from a player that's not even on your team was really nice.

I think it's nice to carry a winning streak in. I'd like to think that we'll play better than we did (Sunday). I thought we left a lot out on the field. But we have this week to prepare and get ready to play our 'A' game next week.

I still see us as underdogs. Seattle's been one of the top teams in the league, throughout the entire year. We're a No. 6 seed and barely made the playoffs. We've got a tough challenge ahead.

We kind of flooded the side. I came open in the corner, and Ben got me the ball.

We're doing what we have to do to move the football, and teams have been stuck on taking away our running game so we've had to pass to move it.

I felt I was on all my assignments and I played well at the line of scrimmage.

He's a big part of our football team, and I know he was frustrated he wasn't able to play. I'm sure he'll be back and will be a big help to us.

Sorry, ... I guess I don't have much to say.

As it will be every week, we're going to take what the defense gives us. The defense will dictate where we're going to go with the football.
ball early establish knew point throw
We knew we wanted to do that early on and establish at that point that we were going to throw the ball on our own terms.
game mean passing time today
We can play the way we did today any time we want. Just because we don't always show a big-play passing game doesn't mean we don't have it.
