-On whether he enjoys media attention.

-On whether he understands that media attention helps connect him to the fans.

-“I understand that. My fans love me regardless. They love the Seahawks. They aren’t worried about what I’ve got to say. They just want to make sure I show up to perform.”

-On the Denver defense.

-“They’re a talented defense. They’re a great defense. They’re out there to do their thing. I’m more worried about what we’ve got going on.”

-On receiving congratulations for his contract to endorse Skittles.

-“Oh man, a lot of contracts.”

-On fullback Michael Robinson.

-“He’s big-time, man. He enjoys that, with the mics and everything; the Rob Report. He enjoys that kind of stuff. That’s right up his alley.”

-On having Robinson back in Seattle

-“It’s big. He’s a mentor for me. He’s got a lot of knowledge about the game. He plays with passion. That’s something I can identify with and that’s my boy.”

-On the first time he ever thought about playing in the Super Bowl.

-“It was probably the first time I told my mama I was going to play in the NFL. I was young, probably Pop Warner (age) playing for the Saints. It was right there in West Oakland. Right there at Raimondi Park, about to bounce out. I told her that. She remembered, though. She reminded me of it, too. Yeah, she’ll be here (at the game).”

-On the significance of having won the Silver Bowl, a city championship, as a high school player in Oakland, versus being in the Super Bowl.

-“I don’t know. That’s tough, man. To this point, that’s a highlight of my life, winning that Silver Bowl in Oakland. That’s pretty big time for me.”

-On whether he thinks he will play harder in the Super Bowl given the magnitude of the game.

-“Every time I go on the field, boss, I give what I got. That’s just straight up.”

-On the game taking a toll on his body.

-“Football takes a toll on your body. That’s just the way I play. I guess I’m kind of used to it or something.”

-On whether he envisioned this after being traded from Buffalo to Seattle in 2010.

-“You know, it was an opportunity for me to go and see if there was something else out there. I’m glad I got the chance to do that. Crazy stuff right here, though, but I’m just pleased with the opportunity I have to be a part of this. I just rolled with my gut, straight up. I took that feeling right then and there that this was the best situation.”

-On whether he’s been able to enjoy the moment.

“A little bit. I won’t be satisfied with this until it’s all over. When we win, that’s when I’ll be satisfied. Until then, I’ve got work, but I appreciate all this.

“Y’all have a good day.”
