Referees have a hard job. I'm not going to just go out there and bash them. But at the same time, whenever there's a tough situation, you always want your call. If we had got all the calls, then Pittsburgh would be flipped around. That's football. Referees try their best, and that's all you can say.
We missed some opportunities, but at the same time you have to give Pittsburgh credit. You don't miss for no reason.
We missed some great opportunities that could have made us world champions. But give Pittsburgh credit. You don't miss for no reason.
I just think no one is perfect. If you asked them (the officials), they'll probably say they could have had a better game. You can't take nothing back. What you can say is Pittsburgh won, and everybody has to go and knock them off because they're now the defending champions.
I'm not used to losing. It's always hard to lose. It's disappointing. You have to give Pittsburgh credit. You don't miss the plays that often without somebody making you.
He is definitely coming. This is my best friend. He'll be there, probably wearing a Pittsburgh jersey, but that's OK.
We look at it that we're playing the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the winner is the best team in the world.
I think we showed a lot of people about this team.
Kobe scored 81 points. I was asking the guys the other day, 'How do you score that many points in a game?' That's like scoring seven touchdowns.
I saw that team take the growing pains and get to the playoffs, then win the division. I want to be here to see us win three or four Super Bowls. That's my only goal. So for me, I'm like, 'OK. If you guys are handling that side of it, call me when it's really, really ready to get done.' But as of right now, I'm going to try to do everything I can to get this team to the Super Bowl.
We have a lot of things to be proud of. We took Seattle to a place it's never been before.
We've got so much to be thankful for. I just want to thank each and everyone of you all for making this the best stadium in the world!
I tell everybody this team is finally getting to where we should be. We're mature. We handle business.
I think he is showing the world how good he is. It's kind of like watching your little brother grow into a superstar. It's an awesome feeling.
