“You got to create it, man. You got to weather the storm sometimes, or create the storm yourself.”
Coach Mike Macdonald told players he didn't care about the score: "I just want us to go let loose and go be us, feel like us." Safety Julian Love said the win "felt like us." The Seahawks also have a bye in two weeks.
