Matt Hasselbeck Trying Quotations

He was a great tight end. I bet him 100 bucks that he'd play tight end for us some day, and I lost the bet. I paid him 100 bucks. I wrote him a check. When I did it, it was more of 'You're a heck of an athlete. Whatever you put your mind to, you can get it done.' That's really what I was trying to say.

When you get frustrated you try to do too much, you try to make stuff up that's not there, and you play outside yourself.

More than anything, you're just trying to execute each play as it's called and have good tempo, have good rhythm, have good enthusiasm.

I've never been a part of a game like this. We set out trying to get a couple of goals accomplished. I think we took care of, statistically, some things we were trying to take care of. Probably more important, we were just trying to stay healthy also.

I know that those guys (the officials) have a difficult job, and they're trying the best that they can. So I certainly don't blame them. But you know, film doesn't lie, I guess is what I would say.

All those guys were trying to win the MVP. Somebody must have told them they had a shot on defense, and they were going for it.

We were still trying to be aggressive, ... to do what we do.
