H Russell Wilson around years ago. Um, I mean when you got a guy like that, man, you really I think, Um, the main thing is you don't want to chase him around. But to answer your question, is you know he's fasting to make a lot of plays with his feet, So, um, I mean I think we'll do a better job this year. You know, it's playing against him a couple of years ago. Knowing what he can do with his feet, we'll do a better job in containing him. That's what makes Seattle
so difficult? Is it? Is it the volume? Is it is the fans? Is it? The team? Is it everything? I mean they're a great team. I mean you know they've um, I mean they do a lot of great things. Um. You know as a group, you know, it's it's nobody just you know, singlely, you know, just really just stands out. I think they play together as a as a you know, collectively as a team, and that's what make them so good. But ye know, Chim always talks about discipline on the
pass rush? Is that even more and that's what when he had somebody like Rosso like an understanding parts. I think the most important thing is what you man, is containing the football, um, you know, and coaches stretch that out. He'll stress it, you know all week, you know, containing the football, um, you know, getting his face you know, um, and you know, get a good pass rush. And if if we're sacking them, then he can't get out of
the pocket. You know, we're getting pressure in his face and making them, you know, make mistakes and make him throw bad throws. Then you know, I think we'll be fine. Just stay him. He thinks you guys have the best defense in the NFL. We're playing a pretty good defense. Where do you think you stacked up against Seattle? What do you think about being the dusting? I think the main thing that we control, man is you know, we go out on the field every day and get better.
You know, and I know that this team, this group will we just go out every day and get better. Do you think this group should be? I mean, whatever people talk about the best defense is Seattle is always the first one. You know, they've been doing a long time. If you guys are in that conversation there, yeah, I mean,
like I said, man, I can't repeat it. You know, if we go out on the feeling get better, you know, each and every day, and then start say practice, you know, and and and you know, take it over to the game on Sundays. Then we just take a week week by week and not worry about you know, what people think about us. And you know, we stay focused and keep the main thing the main thing, and you know, at the end of the year, we'll see where we're at.
We just got to finish, um, like you said, Um, we just gotta finish the last week, even at home, we we finally came over the hump and finished the game. Um. We just gotta come out with more energy and um, you know, and make them match our energy. You know, let's not match them because we're on the road and we want to we want to put the game away quick. You know, that's that's really what's important to us. You
want to put the put the game away quick. Um. You know, stop the run of course, Um, and you know, make them beat us throwing the ball. Do you think you guys get the respect and deserve as as a defensor. Do you think that's something that's kind of developed as a season person. I mean, at the end of the day, man, it's really you know, us believing in each other and in that locker room, you know, holding each other accountable. Um, that's what we do. And you know, just um, just
worrying about you know, what's outside of the building. And I think that's kind of a distraction. If you start worrying about what people say and you know how you know, how they feel about us, then and then that's a big distraction. You know. As long as we keep playing together man, and as a team, you know, we got a chance to be real good. He held the Giants to fifty nine rushing yards and Atlanta was like forty eight or something like that. How confident are you now
in the run defense? And how do you think it's gotten better since say the Washington game where they made some plays um being fields goal and stanfields go the whole game. Um, you know, and and plus um, you know, just you know, making those putting them in negative artists plays, talking for losses on firks and second down helps a lot, you know, when you can't get you know, a Pro Bowl like DeVante Freeman going earlier in the game, When when you shut them down the early, don't let them
get going. I think it's kind of frustrates, you know, any running back because the anxious to get going but you know, if you stop them early, then you got a really good chance of slowing them down. The whole football game looks at the earlier today, if it might be a little bit of time to take rest more on the road to kind of get it out to the quick start, how do you prevent that happened in the world and maybe trying to do too much role. Well,
I think we just you know, everybody settled down. I think you know, if we if we come out, you know, settle and everybody focus, um, you know, basically, um you know, offenses, you know, just chipping away at the defense, playing played a really good tempo, special teams taking over as always, and you know, I think you know that it'll come out real good for us team. Last year with Benny back and the UM, I had a few singles, you know, and I guess, you know, and like I said, you know,
got a few singers. You gotta take advantage of it. And you know, I missed one and Brandon stepped up and got the sack. But that's things that you know, a lot of people don't see, um, you know, just being another being there for another teammate, happy for him, and I was happy to see Benny back on the field. Um, you know he played at a real high level and you know his second game getting back to enough the
mission a couple of weeks. You know, I think he'll you know, be better anywhere last week, which he was real good after not playing for a while. Not team cuts there leading running back at this point of the season, what do you, oh, I who you expect to see the Seahawks this run? Um? I mean I don't know. I think they get they think they get Thomas back. Thomas rolls back this week and um, in order and for them to do that, and they didn't mean they got a lot of confidence and they really believe in
Thomas Roses uh emerged too for them. What have you seen on film out of out of him? The rookie running back? What have you seen out of him? And what the kind of dynamic he's he's starting to bring to that Seattle offense? I mean any any you know all their running backs? Man, I think you know just from watching they run the ball hard. You know they wont cut and want to be downhill. Um, they're gonna
make your tackle, make your gang tackle him. And you know just um, I think Russell's is getting you know, he's getting healthy, and you know we expect him to run the ball a little bit, probably this game because he kind of get his you know, getting his confidence back and you know, healing up. Thanks for tak
