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.
We're a passing team, there's no doubt about that, and we always have been. When you look up at the end of the year, we're going to have a lot of yards on the ground, and we're going to score a lot of touchdowns.
No big deal. We figured the Rams were going to score some points anyway. When you think the score's going to be 30-30 at some point, 7-0 is nothing.
I want to score every time I touch the ball, whether it is one yard or 99 yards. I just want to go out and make a play.
It was exciting because we were down coming out of halftime and then we had a good drive to go score a touchdown. That's about it.
I think we showed a lot of people about this team.
I think that, come January, we will be one of the offenses that everybody is going to fear. Everybody forgets that Jacksonville and Atlanta have a very good defense. I think we've done well against them.
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!
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.
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.
I stopped conversations with everybody, and everybody has been up front saying that they are going to talk about it after the season.
