I think it's relatively easy to play defense against a team that can only do one thing. Unfortunately, that's not what we're talking about here with Seattle.

We never use the condition of the footballs as an excuse. We play with whatever or kick with whatever we have to use and that's the way it is.

I am who I am. In the end, I feel that what I'm accountable for is doing a good job as a football coach.

I'm not really worried about the other 31 teams.

To me the footballs are approved by the league and game officials pregame and we play with what's out there. That's the only way that I have ever thought about that.

Whatever success I've had it is because I've tried to understand the situation of the player. I think the coach's duty is to avoid complicating matters.

I cannot comment on any player who has ongoing criminal charges and legal situations.
