There was a time when we talked about how good a team we were but I'm not sure we believed it. Now we don't talk about it so much but I know we believe it.
I don't think he faded under pressure. I thought he made some really good plays, and I'm sure he'd tell you there's some plays he'd like to have back.
No disrespect at all, ... but we expected to win this game. I've been on teams and gone in places where I'm not sure everyone felt that way. We're more confident than we've ever been.
I'm sure some of the coaches are aware of it, or the people who have been in the building for a long time are aware of it. But a lot of our guys are young. They don't remember, and they don't really care. What we do care about is this team, this year and what we can do.

He had it in his head the way things should be done, and if they weren't done that way, he wasn't going to stand for it.
Some of us Seahawks feel that we let the NFC down this past week. So we've got to step it up a little bit. We owe these guys.
Not to be disrespectful, but we expected to win this game.
