I think our team realizes what kind of team Seattle is. Certainly what they are playing for in getting ready for their playoff run. You know what type of effort you are going to get from them. |
I think sometimes guys coming from college think if you lose one game you're out of the mix, but if you lose two or three or four in the NFL, you'll still be OK, ... It's not really that way anymore. |
I think we're more of a team and kind of feed off each other, ... It's definitely the best camaraderie we've had since I've been here eight years. |
I think we've surprised some people with our patience, ... People say, 'Boy, you must not like this. The defense is getting all the attention.' I say, 'You've got it all wrong. This is the way you should have it.' |
I think we've surprised some teams with our patience this year, ... In the past, we've been a throw the ball down the field offense because that's what defenses have allowed us to do. ...That's the nice thing about this offense and (coordinator) Tom (Moore) and his play calling. We usually call what's working. Games are shorter now. We're having longer drives. |

I think [offensive coordinator] Tom Moore kind of had it in his mind that he wanted to throw deep on the first play, |

I was happy we were able to get a little rhythm going there in the first half. We had a good mix of the run and the pass and the play-action. We had some good drives. |
I was proud of our defense. I always have been. We're a team here, and we win as a unit. We win as the Colts. This was a combined effort. |
I'll give Pittsburgh credit for the blitzes and their rush. Those guys rushed. But we did have some protection problems. |
I'm big into kind of who is dictating to who, ... There were probably a few series in the first game where they were kind of dictating to us. As an offense, you want to be the one dictating. |
I'm disappointed, and I can't give you any more of an explanation than that. It will be more disappointing tonight and tomorrow. |
I'm disappointed. It will be more disappointing tonight and tomorrow. It takes time to move on from a game like this and make your peace with the football gods and get ready for next season. |
I'm going to be a good teammate here. We had a few protection problems. It will be more disappointing tomorrow. It certainly takes time to move on from a game like this. |
