Wide Receiver Eric Decker Patrick Smyth, Executive Director of Media Relations ([email protected] / 303-264-5536) Rebecca Villanueva, Media Services Manager ([email protected] / 303-264-5598) Erich Schubert, Media Relations Coordinator ([email protected] / 303-264-5503) DENVER BRONCOS QUOTES (1/15/12) WIDE RECEIVER ERIC DECKER On QB Tim Tebow “I know he has all the tools and capacity to be a starting quarterback. I think he looks at it too that he wants to get better; he wants to come in next year as an all-around leader of this team. I think he will be.” On missing the playoff game against New England due to injury “It is tough. I got pretty antsy at the house before the game started because I wanted to be out there. I didn’t miss a game until this week. I understand that injuries are part of the process, and I have great faith in my teammates and what they’re capable of doing. Obviously the outcome wasn’t what we wanted. But if you take it as a whole, it was a very positive, successful season for us.” On if he’s had time to reflect yet “It’s still fresh. I think if we get away from it a little bit and then come back, whether it’s watching tape, talking, thinking and processing it, I think a lot of guys are going to take a lot of positives from this season. Just the ups and downs we had. The battle, we had to fight against people saying, ‘You can’t win, you can’t do this. You don’t have enough talent. You don’t have enough time spent with the coaching staff.’ It shows a lot of character of this team, the guys in the locker room, the guys upstairs—the front office and coaching staff—I’m excited because this is a good stepping stone in the right direction for our future.” On how it will be to have an entire offseason together “I think that’s the biggest thing, the lack of camps last season because of the lockout. I know myself, not having one for almost five, six years, it will be nice for me personally, and I think this team, too, because we learned a lot about one another and now we know what our potential is. It’s just a matter of executing and repetition and really finding what our strengths are and using those to our advantage.” On his injury “I’m taking it day-by-day. Obviously, from last week to this week I’m feeling a lot better. Now with some time off, you just got to take it slowly and make sure you get it healed correctly. The training staff has done a great job so far this past week of getting me where I need to be and I’ll move forward from there.” On playing for Coach Fox “He’s probably the best coach I’ve had. He’s a veteran guy that’s seen a lot of football. Very personal man, which I think is big in this league because a guy who can be a players’ coach and demand respect, it’s a good combination. He understands the difference between being a great football player and being a great all-around player with the mental toughness, with being a student of the game and he incorporates all that. I think a lot of guys learn from him and definitely respect him.” ©2012 Denver Broncos Football Club. All rights reserved.

On looking back on the season “I think we know what we are capable of doing. It’s a matter of being consistent for a long period of time. You can have flashes but that doesn’t make greatness. What makes greatness is being consistent week-in and week-out, preparing, watching film, taking care of your body nutrition wise. As a young team with some great veteran leaders, I think we can move forward in the right direction and use it as a building block.” ©2012 Denver Broncos Football Club. All rights reserved.

The Seattle Seahawks have ended their drought and have won their first ever Super Bowl Championship in franchise history. The Seahawks began their inception to the NFL in 1976. The Seahawks or Super Bowl Champions Seattle Seahawks (SuperHawks) It took only thirty-eight years but we finally made it. The Seattle Seahawks have ended their drought and have won their first ever Super Bowl Championship in franchise history. The Seahawks began their inception to the NFL in 1976. The Seahawks originally played their games in the historic know blown up Kingdome and were part of the AFC West. The Hawks are the only team to have played in the AFC and NFC Championships. Four NFL Hall of Famers have come from the Seahawks, which include Steve Largent, Cortez Kennedy, Warren Moon, and Walter Jones. The Seahawks have won the eight division titles and two NFC Championships in 2005-2006 and this season in 2013-14. The first time the Seahawks made it to the Super Bowl the Pittsburgh Steelers trounced them in 2006. The final score to that game (Super Bowl XL) was 21-10 in favor of the Steelers. The loss to the Steelers was devastating to the city of Seattle, and it proved the fact that every major Seattle team collapses in the big game. The other major sports team to have won a Championship title was the Seattle Sonics in 1979, but since then they have been relocated to Oklahoma City and are now the Thunder.

It’s been getting to know each other, getting that comfort level. Obviously, he’s new to our system, and we’re going to make some changes. You’ve got to get to know one another, get that comfort level, because that’s a big thing as far as a quarterback-receiver relationship goes.” On Manning’s intensity “He’s a natural-born leader. In the weight room, he’s the guy taking command of running from station to station. On the field, he’s doing drill-work, getting us lined up and having us do things for a particular reason. There are no wasted movements, no wasted time, and that’s a great thing to have in a leader like him.” On Manning’s leadership “It’s humbling coming from such a great player in Peyton Manning. Being around here—it’s coming up on my third year, being with [Head] Coach [John] Fox and his coaching staff for a year—I understand them a little bit more than he does, but at the same time, as I build my career, I try to build around being reliable, being dependable and also building a leadership role. Now having that chance, it’s an opportunity to take advantage of and do the best I can.” On the new strength and conditioning staff “Just a different mindset.
